Groin Redbeard is battling Black Riders on Weathertop.Groin Redbeard is battling Black Riders on Weathertop.
Last night I had a dream about the latest WW game. I was in this huge arena covered with sand, and I was fighting someone who looked like Brinniel's avator. As I was fighting her, the Saucepan Man and Hookbill the Goomba jumped down from the stadium and started to through Newspapers at us.

Then, after the fight, someone was getting married to Nogrod. When they both said I do Thinlomien started screaming and jumped up and down. Then Volo yelled at her to be quiet and that she was disturbing the peace, then he shot her!

I woke up smiling!

Groin, you have a gift of foresight.

When Lommy is annoyed she does jump up and down.

I hope he doesn't have too much of a gift of foresight...

Well, you know, maybe it isn't foresight, but (without being too proud) subconscious influence of my narration...

Anyway, Groin, that was a hilarious dream (except for letting Volo shoot poor Lommy! Or letting poor Volo shoot poor Lommy, to be precise.) If you didn't make it up, I think you can expect a good carier as one of the crazy BD dreamers...

Let's not exaggerate, Agan dear. Usually she just stamps the ground with one foot You need to really annoy her to get her jumping up and down. Trust me. I've tried.

I don't mean to be self-satisfied, but I think I've got her jumping more times than I've got her to stamp the ground with one foot.

Did you have any general idea with whom I was getting married with Groin? It would be nice to know...

And if that miracle should happen I only hope Lommy's reaction to it would be it bit more positive one...

Thumbs up I can't deny I laughed...

But seriously, you're all nuts.

Groin, of course, is especially so. For considering how the dream ended, I'm not sure if this is appropriate:

But who says I wasn't screaming and jumping of joy? Why all the instant negative interpretations?

Do you know anybody with long brown hair? That's all I could remember.

Exactely, it was more of an excited screaming and jumping that you were doing.

Thumbs up

I had a really, REALLY, bizarre dream last night.

It was really long and weird, but one bit was to do with the Downs.

A friend and I were running away from some crazy person and we went to the train station in Parbold. The road barriers came down and we looked to see which direction the train was coming from. But no train came. What did come was a small silver car-like thing being driven by Nogrod. Every so often it sent up small fireworks. We were worried that this would attract the attention of the crazy person. But when my friend asked about the car thing, I just said, "Oh, don't worry, it's just someone from the Barrow Downs." and that was that.

I think I need a lie down.
