Alright...last night I dreamed I went to work (BK), and I punched in, and my manager Mary was showing me the schedule, but right next to it this new topic on the BD's opened up. I can't remember what it was called, but I remember the third post was by this unregistered user named something like "unbalthawen".

Two posts later, the user had registered, and was saying something like "The Only Real Estel and Oddwen are the rockingest people on the planet and I only like them, but Oddwen, I've been to Holland and I don't think I should associate with you."

Then people I didn't recognize started joining in and saying how awesome I was and how much they adored me. (Malkatoj may have been one of these.)

It was a quite possibly the best dream I've ever had.

Although it was starting to get quite sad, as the posts got more and more off-topic and I felt the BW was going to close it soon.
But I've never been to Holland.

Hmm...interesting...

Too tall, hair's about right, I really have no idea if my eyes are "spunky"...I just like that they seem to change colors, bigger than that (unfortunately...drat), probably not far off...

Been reading your rep comments a lot lately?

A few nights ago I had this wonderful dream seen through the eyes of one of my RPG’s characters. It involved the impending end of a story and I was consciously thinking to my unconscious self - Fantastic! I’ve got to remember this stuff!

It was only as I was waking up I realized that that particular character met his end a long time ago, and that none of it would have worked anyway. It's some sort of sickness, but to be honest I wouldn’t might having a few more ‘bouts of it.

Glirdan · 03-14-2006, 05:35 PM

I don't see how me saying this could cause anyharm considering... well, why don't I just tell it.

Last night, I had a dream that I got a PM from Nilp telling me that Mith and myself (don't know why she was in it) we were the Seers for the game. Then, a little later on, Mith PM'ed me and suggested that we either dream about Garin or Valier and that's where it ended.

Now, don't ask me how Mith got to be a part of this dream considering she's not a part of Nilp's game. I think it may be because of the Tol-in-Gaurhoth Grimoire thread. I'm still trying to figure the dream out.

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 04-15-2006, 04:54 AM

I just had a dream involving a few Downers. For some reason, I was in my family's old house. Anguirel was there and he presented me with an essay he'd written discussing the connexion between the new Flaming Lips album and Jadis the White Witch from Narnia (two awesome subjects). I remember discerning what I believed to be an overlooked flaw in his theory, but I was possibly completely missing his point. I remember Anguirel to be youthful, handsome, intelligent and friendly — for anyone interested in what he's like.

SamwiseGamgee was there too, just hanging out at my house with a bunch of other strangers, including a creepy lady who lived next door.

And AbercrombieofRohan was also there. She kept saying "But I hardly know Eomer!" Which was strange. Despite hardly knowing me, I had still managed to lure her into my house. And some guy was there begging me to check to see if my boiler was working properly.

That was probably me

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 04-15-2006, 05:00 AM

I assure you it was not, Mith. This particular creepy old lady does live quite near Samwise and me.

If I ever dream of you, you will probably assume the form of Nancy Sinatra.

The only one I can remember was a few nights ago when I had a dream where Kath put me into a strange therapy which included jumping in a glass pool - or an aquarium - (the water was about to my waist and the top was open) in a shopping mall.

That, Lommy, is what comes of talking about Freud and reading your own death scene on a WW game! Cool dream though, maybe I will make it as a psychologist yet! (If word of this doesn't get out

Sweet. We are so the "rockingest" people ever!

i dreamed that i got to 4000 reps and now my life was fulfilled

Firefoot · 04-21-2006, 05:54 AM

Last night I had a dream that the Downs was having serious bandwidth issues, so they were really coming down on people with sigs more than three lines. So I'm thinking, wait, my sig is more than three lines, don't hurt me...

And a while ago (about a month, but I was out of town so I forgot about it) I had a dream coming straight from the "Assigned to Mordor" thread. I dreamed that on the trip I was on someone said route "root" and I wanted to say, "no it's route [as in rowt]. If you don't believe me, ask Fea."

Mithalwen · 04-21-2006, 06:09 AM

But that is just wrong.........

The Only Real Estel · 06-05-2006, 10:30 AM

I'd like to resurrect an old dream & have the famous Dr. Dream analyze it for er...Oddwen. And maybe me, just a little bit...

Darn, that's not the image I like to cultivate at all. At least, not here on the Downs. I have enough paternal responsibilities in RL!

Diamond18 · 06-05-2006, 11:45 AM

I had an odd one last night...

I made a post in here about a dream that was about Werewolf. Someone with a screenname a lot like Encaitare (though it wasn't that exactly, and I'm not sure if it was supposed to even be Encaitare or what) posted a really short, somewhat rude comment right after. So I was a bit miffed, but then TORE posted saying how that was rather rude of her, so I felt better, and decided not to post anything in reply.

I wish I could remember all of TORE's post, because it went from saying "That was rather rude" to something about holding a sword that slew something or other and then you'd be able to walk a mile in my shoes. Or something. I remembered all the posts exactly when I woke up after the dream, but then I fell back asleep and the specifics got lost.

Oddwen, that's... interesting. I have never, nor do I ever plan on, working at a hospital. But a friend of mine who is an author did once put a character in her story that was named Sarah and was a nurse, and she was supposedly modelled after me.

Had a dream last night...I apparently was surfing a Canadian body-builder site, where Canadians would post pictures of their muscled selves, and I came upon a picture of Glirdan. He was sooooo skinny and soooooo pale, so I convinced him that that site wasn't the best place for him...and promptly put my picture up, and all the Downers were entranced by my muscled biceps (which I don't have).

Ha!! Yes!! That just officialy made my day!! But you didn't have to be so harsh about it!! Sheez!!

Not exactly- you just sound like my dad. He argues/lectures in much the same way you do. He's also uber-logical, and even though I disagree with him on many points, I can't argue with his reasoning. It's rather frustrating.

TORE, that's what is generally known in the business as a wish-fufillment dream.
