SUGAR!!!

Last night, I dreamed that I took a day off because I was kinda sick. But wandered all over town looking at stuff, and while I did that I had about four or five giant cokes with crushed ice (all at the same time) and they were DELICIOUS!!!

Another dream - in parts

Met profgrrrrl at a semi-ren faire/ DC event. Got upset at a DC event. Traveled a long ways with Rezzie and her family to spend New Years w/ them. In the snowy mountains, on an uncovered train.

Zach Braff Hates Me

“Good things are being said about you". So sayeth my Fortune Cookie this morning. But last night....
*starts dream sequence*
I had a dream last night where people were saying the worst things about me. This included the cast of Scrubs. I kept running from room to room, trying to find a place to hide or sob in peace before I hit someone.
Then, the sleep apnea set in. Talk about scary! It felt like my throat was closing up, almost burning, and then I couldn’t breathe! I still feel like I am having trouble. Maybe it’s the throat thing that’s going around?

Dream Shopping

I had a dream last night about the perfect muffin. It was large. Flecks of tiny blueberries. And fresh.

Sophie's Revenge

Last night I dreamed that I had a horrible case of the ear mites.

End of World Dream

I usually have an armageddon dream at least once a month. This is what I dreamed this morning between 4am and 6am.

Fayetteville was a small city, like a hotel, with no streets. In fact, there was a hotel. Everyone was in town because we were excited about a football game or New Years. I was there with Jenny and a little boy. Some people show up and claim that they are orchestrating everything and that the end of the world will happen in a few years time. I think that they are full of crap. Even if they have that information, you cannot run someone's life. And they tell us what is going to happen to us on the last day of the world. Jenny is supposed to go straight to this hotel room where she will open the door and the sun will be there to enlighten her. I was going to meet someone in a sweater vest and I would not be able to help what I would do or say next and then eventually I would go to this other room and that's when armageddon would happen. I still think that they are full of crap, but try to remember the hotel room they told Jenny so that I could prevent it. Then they kidnap us and the boy and say that we were to start our eternal life with them. We were supposed to have eternal youth, but all they did was kidnap us. The little boy was freaking out. It was at this point in the dream when I started to hit our kidnappers and the other brainwashed victims at the compound. We run into a guy that is like Sloth from the Goonies, except his head is okay, it's just his teeth that are crooked and tiny. He bites me as I slap him; he is also in a straightjacket. We realize he has the gift of prophecy. They boy is freaking out and starts to ask questions, I then ask 'How will the boy die." Sloth relates some horrible tragic death, and the boy starts to freak out. I try to explain to the boy that because he will die a tragic death, then he does not have eteranl youth, therefore our kidnappers are full of crap. It's about five years later and I have a little girl. She calls some of the blue-face painted brainwashed ladies that they are ugly. We are trucked into town, they think that we are brainwashed enough that we won't run away. I try to escape immediately thru the bathroom window. They let me, and then everything starts to happen like they say. I run into the person in the sweatervest. I try to find Jenny but can't. I go thru the door with the little girl, she turns into my cat Sophie. I see some family members and hug them. That's when the angels start to descend. The sun gets so bright, and the angels have wings, but are kind of robotic. Almost like the angels from Neon Genensis Evangelion. Everyone watches and are lifted off of the ground about a foot. I try to jump to join them, but I don't float. I pick up Sophie, she and I watch the angels land while sitting on top of a pick up truck. Some people's faces change. Some grow wings. When they land everything goes back to normal, but some people are changed. No one really talks about what happened. I hug Sophie.

When I wake up Sophie is laying on my stomach.

A Note From the Universe

Seeing this helped me forget about my end of the world dream last night. I tried to stop it from happening but Sophie and I ended up sitting on top of a pick up truck watching it happen anyway. Sorry guys.

I Dream of Sophie

Last night I was having a weird dream about a family that left their burning home and went to a house on the seashore. Sadly they ended up being attacked by samuri warriors in a dragon float, but the point is how I woke up. Something was pulling me, like sand sliding under my feet. I could almost feel the prickliness of the seashells. When I came to I discovered that Sophie was laying on my chest, licking the inside of my forearm. I guess I started to drift back to sleep mid-pet when she decided that I *really* needed to wake up and so began to nibble on my arm. Please note that the inside of the forearm is quite sensitive and had it not been for the benadryl that I took earlier to help me sleep, I do believe that I would have yelped.

Apologize Now, Apologize Again Later

So I had this dream a few nights ago and I really wanted to post about it but I wasn't sure how because of the delicate subject matter. It involved someone I know cursing at these kids while we're on our way to the zoo. To get to the zoo you had to walk across a log and a damn that these beavers had built and you also had to watch out for the horseshoe crabs in the creek as you walked over it. We got to the zoo but it wasn't very exciting. We all lined up to get back on the bus, but there was a bit of a flood and all of the beavers and crabs were acting all erractic and when you approached the creek to cross it the beavers and crabs started to bite you. ... There was just no good way to post this.

The First Blog Movie Ever!

Last night I dreamed I went to the movies with a friend of mine. And the movie that we saw was one of the first ever blog movies. Based on the lives of VJ, Rezzie and I. Ike made the movie. The movie took place in the middle ages. There was a king and a queen and their three children. The oldest, a son, was kinda laid back, but the second oldest, their only daughter, was quite fiery and took to her job of future queen w/ a passion and kicked her brother into gear. There was a younger son, but we didn't see much of him. (The whole castle/middle ages theme was straight out of the Wheel of Time series. In fact, the oldest son shared something in common with the character Perrin from the books.) At one point there was a raid and all of the xiaolin warriors in training were on the way to the castle through the woods when they came across an old peddler. But really he was somewhat of a trickster and had a bunch of cloned soldiers growing in the mud around the xiaolin warriors. When this was discovered he began to dance around and do a bunch of tumbling tricks. Through out various points in the movie little message boxes would pop up saying "Hi VJ! Hi Col! Hi Rezzie!" When I saw one I started to squeal with laughter. The little girl sitting in front of me in the audience was all pissy b/c i tore off one of her fake butterfly wings. There were also a ton of ballons and streamers and confetti in the audience. It was a huge party because this blog movie and a blog movie that my husband made were up for Emmy's. But there was a sad part to the movie. At one point the evil woman in the movie set fire to the castle/compound, and Maximus was still in there. But Dulce went in and rescued him. During that scene, I heard VJ yell out "But he wasn't even done playing with his toys yet!"

You think it's sensible for me to go down into that pit of cotton-top hell, and let themhippity-hop all over my vulnerable flesh?

Joy, I blame you for the dream I had last night. The little hoppers were everywhere. Cute, but everywhere! Anya and her bunnies.

Frosty nectar. Now please.

Tonight I am considering an attempt at drunken laundry. If the need arises, possibly drunken packet making. Last night I saw X-men 3: The Last Stand. No, I did not stay until the end to watch the preview for the next movie. I didn't have popcorn either. But, there was sushi. My gods was there sushi! And fried squid. I kinda learned how to use my chopsticks too without having a rubberband. I'd also like to introduce a new member of the Manticore Family. Pictures will be updated to the site as soon as I figure out how to do that. Also, for anyone that has before, please don't text message me. If you do, then include $0.10 each time. K? Thanx. And now for last night's dream: I graduated from law school. Now that I held four degrees, I still didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. It turns out that I owned a little apartment/shop. But Glenn and I decided to move to a cool place. It was called something like "Clayman's Field" and it was in Georgia by Florida. And there was a highway that ran next to the ocean, which was a chrystal blue color. (Told ya it was a dream.) Then we ended up visiting relatives (no idea how we were related, let's just say all were aunt's and uncles or some variety) and I ended w/ a younger cousin at an uncle's house. We were by the woods. I asked him if he had seen big foot. He told me he did, and that he was on an endless search for him. Just then, who do you think walked by the window? My cousin was scared so I held him. We were afraid that big foot would come in there. I told my cousin that if he did to start running towards our aunts and hide. That's when I got a dog. I went to a shelter that this lady I knew ran. She showed me this one dog. She was pretty. Brown and white. And small. But very happy and nice. THE! PERFECT! DOG! No other way to describe her. I wasn't really looking for a dog, but I took her home. She was very happy. I had her out in the yard on a leash. She checked everything out. Then promptly turned into a very pretty white and brown cat. I keep thinking about this part of the dream and get very happy. Perfect timing to uplift my mood too.

It's getting eerie, what's this cheery singing all about?

Last night I had a great dream where I found an AWESOME theatre! In an old music hall with a red velvet carpet and columns! It was expected of the theatre goers to arrive in costume. There was one guy there that was dressed up exquisitely like Captain Hook. For your viewing pleasure they would show clips and reels of old musicals, only to end the evening with a favorite. Everyone was also greated encouraged to sing and dance in the aisles. Although, I had to soon leave the theatre (which was in New York City) and try to escape someone that had tried to break into my Alaskan cabin. The dive off of the ship wasn't too bad, but then I had to climb onto another one that was on fire. Yeah, I'm confused too. Today's Buffy quote from Xander in "Once More With Feeling"

Yet Another Dream

Last night I dreamed that Gilly and I and Ikey and Donna went driving and were going to go hiking. Ikey and Donna took off for the restrooms when we got there. Gilly had the idea to put all of their stuff back in the car and drive off. Really we were just going to go get my car. But they came back and chased after us. When we got to the place where I had parked my car ( a huge river, like an Alaskan river w/ stones alone the bank, drearie sky), we saw something on the beach. It was two dead golden retrievers. Something had killed them. I think it was Ikey that noticed something else next to them under a tarp. It was a little girl, but she was just barely alive. She looked at the dogs and said that they had lost their souls. Then, I saw her soul start to slip away, I pushed it back into her and she tried to warn me not to. As soon as I forced her soul back into her body HE took over. Some kind of a creature/monster/evil thing. And his two servants transformed the dogs' bodies into these hideous grey, fish with huge teeth, that walked on two legs, and they had these horrible large open-mouths. It looked like my head could go straight into it. The three of them started to pursue us, but we got away in the car. That was when we got to this entrance to the mountain. It used to be a ride, but we knew that once you went inside that you were really headed for the gullet. I couldn't find Glenn at first; we had gotten separated. I almost got on the ride w/out him, but then I found him. He didn't understand why we had to sit together at first b/c it was just a ride. Then, it started to turn into a Neo/Trinity thing where he and I were walking through the ride and killing all of the evil creatures that were in it. It was weird b/c I was able to have some control in my dream. Typically I would just go into the fetal position and let the creatures eat me. But this time I just put my hand straight out, waved it around a little, and killed them. It was wonderful, yet silly. The dreamed continued a little bit after that, but nothing that I really remember.

Why Would She Do That?

I'm making myself a nice cup of tea, working timidly on my NaNo novel (the gnomes are having a lazy spring day), the pixie stabbing my eye with a two inch needle has finally gone home to watch Oprah, and the temperature is steadily going down outside. Last night my Sims game revolted against me. Every time I saved the game it would shut down, unlike the previous day where it would just shut down. I guess it just wanted the night off. Therefore no pictures to post of virtual debauchery yet. Ikey and Gilly are still single, the new house is looking good ;) and I think Rezzie is about to get a job in music like Jonny. I'm striving for ideas for Christmas still. Today I forgot my gloves so typing is a bit strenuous, and my hair is complacent. Current daydream: pillow fight in a French hotel while waiting for breakfast to be served at the Eiffel Tower. Latest Discovery: that turtles love to paint.
