Agan and THE Ka - quite nice portraying of me. (Especially Agan .)

I had two BD dreams while I was away. In the first one, I was Victoria Beckham. I was talking with David Beckham and found out he had cheated on me. I got really angry, so he jumped out of the window. I thought it was a good thing, for he could not survive the long fall. I went to the window to see him fall. About halfaway down, he transfromed into Rune. (Honestly, I have no clue what's it with David Beckham transforming into 'downers. Besides, I only have dreamt of David Beckham twice in my life and both times he turned into a 'downer. Odd, eh?) And he was as lucky as to survive the fall, nothing happened to him. When he was on the ground, he met a fat girl who was dressed in a wedding dress. Actually, the girl looked a bit like Brinn, (except that she's not fat). And you don't need to be Freud to interpret this quite interestingly but never mind, it made me laugh.

Also, I had a rather complicated dream, but there were two rather funny parts in it. Firstly, I was on a cruiser ship on the Baltic Sea (on a ship that goes regularly between Helsinki and Stockholm) and found an ad of a b-class movie. To my amusement, I saw that Rune was in it. He was standing in some dark doorway; he was the villain of the movie. The second, quite unrelated, thing that amused me was a part where I, Greenie and Legate were sitting on a bench in the "yard" of my summer cottage. I asked how Legate's day had been and he showed me a drawing of his that demonstarted his breakfast. "Nice colours," I commented. (When I told this dream to Greenie she laughed at me and at the compliment. But really, I didn't say it in the dream because I couldn't think of anything else positive to say, but because the colouring was really beautifully done. He had captured the colours of the fruits very well.)

Oh yeah - I dreamed that I was having a conversation with Hookbill. The conversation wandered to memes* that we were posting on LJ, and I mistakenly pronounced it "mee-mee". I saw Hookbill's face darken with anger, and my hasty "No no! I meant "Meem"!" did nothing to assuage his furious uncloaking**.


*A meme, in this instance, is a quiz or test that is passed around via the internet.

**Uncloaking in the "unvieling of power" sense, not the "getting naked" sense, you gutter-minded people.

I had an eccentric BD dream. In it, in order for the EW to die, one ordo had to be sacrificed in the process. In a previous game, Durelin had been the ordo. She had not died, but turned into a unicorn. Now, Rikae the EW was to be killed and I was to be sacrificed. So, I kind of died and turned into a unicorn. However, I had a complaint: "I don't want to be the same as Durelin. I'd rather be a pegasus. Besides, Dury and I are both females, so we can't even reproduce, so there's absolutely no reason for us being both unicorns." The mysterious ModGod agreed and I was turned into a pegasus. Then I galloped away to the woods and to the night.

And no, I have no idea how my subconscious works. But I think it's brilliant at times.

I dreamed last night that Macalaure was flying to the Philippines to visit Lhuna. She intended to take him to "the store that's bigger than the island!" on the advice of a local friend of hers. What island and what store I don't know, but this was Lhuna's friend's advice. And I'm not sure how I came to know about Lhuna's plans for Mac's arrival (pick him up at the airport, take him shopping), but there it is...

That wasn't a dream... Can I have my cloak back?

In the dream I had last night, Hookbill wrote in the Downer that he would like to read The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling some day. Then Eönwë came to my place and wanted to use my brothers' computer in order to write to Hookbill on Facebook that he'd like to read it, also. Hookbill replied that he has a copy of the book, and Eönwë could borrow it if he wanted to. Then Eönwë left, and I wrote on Hookbill's wall that also I might like to borrow it, if he didn't mind.

Then I was suddenly out with Greenie and Lommy. It was dark, probably late autumn or early winter, and we were walking through Helsinki.
"We were once hanging out on Weathertop with some guy," began Lommy.
"Yeah, and then he just fell off the hill," said Greenie.
"And when we all went back to Weathertop later, he fell off again."
"He seemed to have serious problems with his balance, falling all the time. And besides it was dangerous to fall off Weathertop, it is so high."
"Then we started thinking... We didn't really want to say anything to him since it was a bit embarrassing... We thought he might have brain cancer."
"Oh," I said, and was silent for a while. "Well... Did he have brain cancer, then?"
"No," said Lommy casually, "he just had bad balance."

Then we entered some museum, and suddenly I wasn't walking between Lommy and Greenie anymore, but Hookbill and Kath. I don't remember all the things we talked about, but then we ended up speaking about my English skills.
"They don't quite match those of a native speaker, but it's just understandable," said Kath, while Hookbill refused to say anything and just rolled his eyes.

Agan! I wouldn't say any such thing about your English skills, I think they're fantastic. You, Lommy, Greenie, Volo ... all of you speak fantastic English, including RL in the case of Volo which I am sure is true for the rest of you as well.

Haha, thank you. Though I'm too much of a perfectionist to be really content with my skills, and will probably always be.

I had a BD-ish dream last night. I can't really remember what happened, but I do remember that SpM had returned.
