mickey mouse carpet

I dreamt I was in a workshop with a group of people. They were from all walks of life. I was feeling a little lost and possibly behind. Then the instructor said the ones that know the least, change (benefit) the most. Then I felt a little better. We were all leaving the workshop and going back to our cars, although I hadn't driven. The older man with white hair and a big belly said..." you know, you are about the size of my (title of job - meaning a man who puts in sinks)." He was saying it in a way that he was pondering me doing it. His XX always complained about his job and he wanted someone who could just come in and do the work, do what they were paid for. He said he would keep me in mind. It made me think...how nice that would be as a boss. To have someone do what they were asked to do, paid to do, without the resistance. Then I thought about myself in my own work and how much I'm the one resisting and shuddered. I continued walking, since I needed to walk to get to where ever my home was. It seemed like a picturesque town. IT was small, quaint, with hills and little streets. A guy I went to high school with (DZ) was there and said he could walk with me. We walked down a dirt street with one side lined with little shops. I looked in one. It was painted red inside and had large old planks of wood for the floors. They were not finished, but they were smooth from ware and had space between the planks. At the very end was a counter and to the right was a barrel bbq. I realized it was a woman I used to work with's place. I told DZ... hey, I know her.... she just opened up this bbq place. I was thinking.. hmm maybe I should help her with her biz. We walked by some remnants of a construction site. There were left over pieces of counter and wood paneling. DZ said let me show you something. One of the pieces of wood panel had a stain on it. He took a piece of cardboard and placed it underneath. All of a sudden the stain started changing levels of dark. Then it started to fade until it was gone. I was amazed and said "how neat! now they can use it!" Then it continued to change. He told me that it will have an affect at the end and it will look fuzzy. They call it the bear fur affect. I went up to it and touched it and sure enough, the surface had tiny fibers all over it and the paneling had changed to a brightly colored design with Mickey Mouse in the middle wearing a marching band outfit and blue and yellow triangles decorating the edges. I was thinking hmmm... that would be fun to do in Vegas (for some reason). But when I thought that, the procedure turned to the lighting of a match causing the change to happen. Then I saw a film that happened in the same place in Vegas I was thinking of. And these mental inmates were dancing around. One man in particular was the main character. He had long hair and was dancing oddly.
