I still remember this dream. The excitement was palpable.

*** Warning! Boring dream description ahead! Proceed at your own risk! ***
There was this house. Can't really say what the house looked like, because it was always changing. Every few minutes all of the walls and siding would sort of slide down into the ground, revealing a completely different house underneath. One minute it would be a castle, the next a log cabin.After a while, I noticed that there was a huge stadium, and the house was in the center.
Thousands, maybe millions of people had crowded into the stadium to see the house. It was a huge party. A "house-party" you might say. Ha ha.
Apparently, the house was going to run out of new forms to take very soon, and that's why everyone was there. Everybody wanted to see what would happen when that last facade sank into the ground. Everybody wanted to see what the house would look like after its illusions had all been stripped away.
As the house's end neared, the dropping of the veneers sped up considerably. One, two, even three times a second the exterior would slide into the ground and briefly reveal a different house before it too would start to slide.
Near the end, the house became a blur. The very ground shook from the constant falling of the house's exterior. The noise got louder and louder.
At the very end, the house was a white two-story farmhouse. It kind of reminded me of my grandmother's house. It paused in that form for three or four seconds, and the crowd held its breath.
The walls started to slide, revealing...
...nothing.
Those white walls slid into the ground, and when they were gone, there was just a big empty square patch of grass in the middle of a stadium full of people.
Then I woke up.
That actually sounds like a really cool dream.
...and something that I might have to use for a short story someday. :o)
