I have similar things happen to me – can't recall anything off the top of my head, but the thing about waking up with a name/tune/something at the front of one's mind is very familiar.

Someone once told me that you can't read in dreams, and that this may be because literacy isn't built into the prehistoric brain the way language and music apparently are, but I totally do read in my dreams! Occasionally it's 'look at a page and know what it says' which might be a monkey-brain way of simulating reading, but more often it is actually recognising words and actually reading them (I've taken care to notice this especially since hearing the above).

The closest thing I have to obvious processing dreams is pre-travel anxiety ones – I seem to have got over the 'arrived in a foreign city without passport or wallet' variety, but have moved on to 'mistake departure time for the time you have to leave the house and thereby miss big important plane/train/whatever.' Just had one of those last night, actually – nothing like looking at your ticket and seeing the time on it is the time on your clock at home right now. I guess that means I'll never be late for anything (but will now probably forget my passport, ha).
