Help with dream interpretation?
I was with a woman, not sure who, and we walked passed a restaurant with outdoor seating. There was someone really famous there and it seemed like he was being shot, but I realized that it was just those fake blood charges they use in the movies. Some girl he was with then showed up ostensibly to whisk him away to the hospital, but I was the only one that had a close enough perspective to see that it was faked and he was just trying to get out of paying his bill. They drove off and then somehow I got interested in hot air balloon rides. Now somehow I ended up on this pole that was so high up it overlooked a city. This pole was some sort of perch for hot air balloons. I was petrified! I wanted to slide down it but I was too scared and I mentioned this to the woman I was with. I asked her how she planned on getting down (though I don't remember her being on the same pole as I). She said she would just have her dog bring the car around. I replied, "how?" (because we're way up in the air right). She points to an overpass that's within 40 feet or so from us. At this point I'm in a bucket on top of the pole (you know, like those lift buckets tree trimmers use- with three sides). I'm so terrified that I'm sitting in the bucket and she starts turning the bucket. I'm thinking that there's no way that this bucket where it connects to the pole is going to withstand turning around and around, given it's lack of use, and I'm screaming for her to stop (at this point she is my wife and I'm calling her by name, but she looks nothing like my wife in real life). I'm almost to the point of crying. She wouldn't listen to me for a while but eventually she stopped. I think that's where the dream ended. I dream in color. The pole was white, as was the bucket. There were no unusual colors that I could remember.
