Hello loves. I had many dreams, strange and occasionally wonderful but mostly just odd... really, really odd... over break. The one in question is thus:

Feanor of the Peredhil walks into a pizza place/pub with a similar layout to her favorite one near home, except this one serving alcohol and the real one not. Incredibly, she acquires a Russian accent for a short time, introducing herself with a laugh or two to a number of men as "Nataliya" and with a last name that I can pronounce, but sure as heck can't spell. They were bidden to call her "Tali". Suddenly, to her surprise, the phantom arrives and offers his arm (gallantly, as it was still attached). Fea replies with "'Right, let's go." in her normal voice, much to the dismay of the fellows who then complain that she lied. She responds, with a laugh, "Hey, I never actually said I was Russian. Thanks for helping me practice for the play I'm in." And off the phantom and Fea go for a slice of plain cheese and a few bottles of Dr. Pepper. The End.

I also dreamt about Gollum one night, but as he's not a Barrowdowner, it doesn't count.

I had a dream that Pio had read my entries in the Green Dragon Inn, and she started praising me on my character development, and how wonderful my post was, and a load of other nonsense. I'm confused, since my post lacked any form of character development whatsoever. I write Pio asking her why she was praising me, and she says that she was trying to bribe me into doing something for her. I woke up before she could say what, though.

Pio, you're an evil, evil woman.

1420! A crazy, crazy dream.

My sister has a class at 7am during Mondays and Thursdays. Since we live a good part of two hours away from home, and since it takes the best part of an hour for some of us to do our morning rituals, that necessitates waking up at the inhumanly early hour of 4. By virtue of similar obsessions (over BD, chicken sounds, and slugs), Lhunadaga and I are, by default, twin (despite the obvious gap in both age and beauty). That means I am also her official chaperone, which she almost always needs wherever she goes. Including the university.

But my class starts at 10, so I have three hours to waste. Usually, I wait for the University's Computer Centre to open at 8, but I had no money then, and I'm really tired, so I looked for a vacant room in the building where I'll have my first class, and slept there.

I woke up, and then noticed that there was a little group forming outside the room I took for my own. They'll be having classes there, so I left. Then, I received a text message from someone I didn't know. I scanned it, but the only words I can remember were 'WW,' 'Ministry of Ministering,' and 'Davem'! Now, I tried to check the message again, but my phone's display froze, and I proceeded to bang it furiously on some surface.

Then I woke up. There really was a group forming outside the room. I was wondering if the second part of my dream would come true. It didn't, of course.

I had a very strange dream last night.

I and Kath had heard that Fordim had got twins, so we decided to go to see them to a hospital. We wen't there and Kath asked a nurse: "Where is Fordim Hedgethistle? We would like to see him and his babies." I laughed, because I knew that Fordim's name wasn't Fordim in real life (or you never know, but anyways) and the nurse didn't know anyone of that name and went away. So we (me and Kath) went to ask another nurse for someone who had got twins. The nurse said: "Twins? He got seven!" and guided to Mr. and Mrs. Hedgethistle who had got seven babies. Fordim looked happy but a bit devastated, like his wife (who looked like Harry Potter's mother in the films). They let us hold the babies, who looked more like half year old than newborn. After that I, Kath and Fordim went to a cafe and ate sandwiches. Funniest of all, Fordim didn't even know who me and Kath were, because we hadn't presented ourselves, because we had forgotten.

That's excellent!

I'll have to tell him to stop trying to interfere in other people's dreams though...

Thanks. That would be much helpful. I sat through much of French class babbling, 'Where is it? Did I accidentally delete davem's message?'

*Hands Nilp a cookie and a dream for studying French*

I dreamt that Lhuna and Nilp were both sitting at a large wooden desk together. Nilp was frantically working - I can't remember whether it was on a piece of paper or a laptop - on the right hand side. Lhuna, on the other hand, had a computer out, but was instead playing a ball game with it. With, not on. She was somehow guiding a yellow ball along the top of the computer, and aiming to get it on top of a laptop far out of her reach. I think she was doing it all psychokinetically.

Later, Nilp became Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory. He invented a parachute, then launched himself into an icy ravine. Unfortunately, he forgot to account for the power of wind in his equations, and ended up being blown against the rocky sides of the ravine.

Even later, Dexter became me. So my subconscience was telling me, in a roundabout way, that Nilpaurion Felagund = the guy who be short.

That could explain why I feel my body clock's in GMT . . .

EDIT: Actually, there is this interesting tidbit that proves your guy-Nilp theory--it even adds someone to the mix:

. . . the phantom had disappeared and magically turned into Nilp or possibly the guy who be short . . . (Cai)

I dreamed about TGWBS last night...he looked most like the picture I drew of him sometime back here, but he was the right color. O_< And he actually had a chin.

Supposedly, in my dream, he was awarded for getting a girlfriend with his own personal bathroom in my Burger King designed by me. She looked like a hobbit lass. The bathroom was all white tile, and had at least three toilets and some funkily placed walls. I kept getting lost in it.

Plus, he and his new girlfriend got to star in a motion picture starring Jodie Foster, in which they were a poor family living in a trailer. The Mother (Jodie Foster) let TGWBS hold their $320 dollar rent money while she went inside the trailer, meantime TGW and his new girlfriend were kidnapped for the money.

The interview with Jodie Foster was hilarious.

I dreamt that I was discussing Revelations with Lhuna by PM. She casually slipped into the conversation the fact that she had worked out the apocalypse was coming in four days time.

I became very worried, to say the least.

And half an hour sooner in Newfoundland?

Two! Two! Two dreams in one!

Day before yesterday, I dreamed I was looking through people's avatars to collect three which had the names of their 'Downers on them...the only one I found was Thinlómien's, which dismayed me because I realized then that she had changed it.

Then last night I dreamed that I assigned the Star Spangled Banner to the Shire because I did a duet with Boromir88 at a baseball game. (B88, I like you a lot, but you need to learn the words. ) Yeah, he looked like his pic on Tig's picture page, Boromir costume and all.

I'm getting there... I'll try to get it done before the end of the world.

But for now, I shall recount a tale of Mithalwen.

It was really odd. She was on some sort of dating website; I can't remember my place in the dream. I think she may have been showing me one of the functions of the website, where you could choose to search for people by race - for example, you could exclude Jews. This makes sense because I was discussing racism and Nazism and such with Eomer, but I don't see how Mith came into it. Perhaps my mind was rebelling against too many Eomer dreams.

She had lots of curly hair, just as I imagine her, anyway.
