What a wonderful post. I have a photo of a giant papier mache puppet, from Bread and Puppets in Vermont, that I'll send you, but it's not as wonderful as your dream.
And I'm all for wish fulfillment in dreams. I dreamed I got my second Strange Horizons acceptance--which even in the dream I thought was remarkable, since even in the dream I didn't have anything under submission there.
And--I love what you say about Grapes of Wrath here.
...in the days before he realized he couldn't call himself a man of God and sleep with every girl who fell into his arms mmm, thinking of the lovely deity who would smile instead of frown on this behavior :-)
