I'll take you to the candy shop

Man, I just had this crazy dream. I should preface it by saying I haven't heard the song "Candy Shop" by 50 Cent. Well, I've heard about a 15 second clip and accompanying video, but nothing beyond that short snippet.

So, in my dream, I was watching the music video for that song. Except it wasn't the *real* music video for that song, of which I've only had a short glimpse. It was some random stuff, kinda weird. In the video, 50 Cent was attempting to get into the "candy shop", which was nothing more than a dark building. What lay within fell outside the scope of the video. However, the main complication to acheving his easy-sounding goal was that (here's where it gets weird) there were a bunch of jackalopes guarding the building. Yes, jackalopes. Maybe it's weirder that I've never - well, maybe once? - dreamt about jackalopes? So yeah. There may have also been some flora taking a more active role in the building's defense as well, ala the Ents in LotR. Basically, he just circled the building the entire video; there wasn't any open conflict. It was a dark night, not very much moonlight, which really altered the mood to borderline-scary. He was never able to gain access to the building; at the end, he just kind of wussed out and walked away. One of the jackalopes turned to the other and made a comment about being sad that another person had opted not to come "play with them." I'm not sure if it was an ironic comment, like they were looking foward to forcibly guarding their charge, or an innocent, literal one, that they there misunderstood and just seeking company.

Either way, kinda weird.
