I does like mine English...

I dreamt last night, in the wee hours (okay, so it was definitely post-dawn, after my dog woke me up and I dozed back off), that I was part of a game. A game in which Lalwende was playing the role of one of two dragons that was supposed to be exterminating me into a pile o' ash. I don't know who the other dragon was, but he was even bigger than Lal-dragon was. I DO know that davem was supposed to be on my team (we held spray bottles filled with water, the goal being to spray the dragons without getting fried), but the irresponsible fellow was inside warming up a bottle for the lil one. In the end I managed to duck underneath a supernaturally large storage shed and spray Lal-dragon in the face when she ducked her head down to look for me. Ha, I win!

Then Lal transformed back into regular-Lal and we went inside for tea. In case you didn't know, Lal and dave, your house is set up thusly: from the outside, you can look through a big bay window into the kitchen, which has a sink on the far side and a stove on the wall perpendicular and to the right of the window. From the inside, however, that vision is proven to be totally wrong; the kitchen has yellow wall paper and is sunken a few steps into the floor. You enter through the kitchen (which is kind of dark and small), and go up steps into a dining room area. Through which you enter what was either a living room or a hall which does an interesting curving thing toward a bunch of bedrooms. The one on the right at the end of the hall belonged to the baby, who Lal showed me (v. cute), at which time I noticed that she was like five inches shorter than me (making her about 4'11"). I realized around this time that my brothers and grandfather were playing video games in the room at the end of the hall and briefly wondered how they got into Lal and dave's house...
