Who's up for a game of Flamingos and Porcupines?

Last night i dreamed i was negotiating with my friend Blade on the rules for a game of "flamingos and porcupines."  All i remember now is we agreed that i would be flamingos and he would be porcupines. I woke from it smiling and feeling happy. 

As i kept thinking about it upon awakening, however, i kept wonder what does it "mean" when it came to me in a flash that flamingos and porcupines is dream-speak for croquet in Alice's dream world. The Red Queen uses a flamingo for a mallet and the balls are hedgehogs (which are like little porcupines in my simple dream brain i guess).  

So the question now is am i as comically fearsome and bossy as the Red Queen? And is my friends' tough exterior protecting him from my advances (club)? And if those are the appropriate questions my dreaming mind is trying to make known to my "waking" mind, what does it mean?  :o)
