Or indeed which Queen Elizabeth of England ... technically that would be Gloriana not the present one who is:
Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith
She is separately and equally and for the time being Queen of sixteen other Commonwealth countries...

Today, when I returned from my Swedish exam I was dead tired and decided to take a nap. I had a couple of very life-like dreams (and actually managed to make Greenie laugh when I woke up by asking her did she have good time in her walk for she only went for a walk in my dream...) and one of them was BD-related. In it, HerenIstarion had passed me in rep points and was the first one to receive second green block... And they say dreams reflect your deepest fears...

Actually this may be a long-time-ago-going "flashback" of reality... I recall once Thenamir, or who was it, suddenly appeared on the top of the reputation ladder, having two green blocks. Maybe it was a real shock and frustration back then, Lommy...?

The other night I had my first BD dream in what's been a long time...

I had written somewhere online, that I won't be on the BD for some time because I've been way too busy lately (which is actually true...no need to state that as I'm sure some have noticed my recent lack in activity). And then someone else (I think it was Greenie), wrote that she needed to take a break from the Downs too. In response, Lommy wrote an LJ post saying something like this: "Since things have been quite busy around here, I've decided to follow Brinn and Green's initiative and take a break from the Downs. I may not return online for a few months. But before I go, let me post several pictures of me and Noggie." And underneath her writing were several thumbnails of photos, both recent and old. I clicked to enlarge the first one and discovered it was not of Lommy or Nogrod, but of Lommy's mother. And underneath the photo was a newspaper article about how her mother was killed in a car accident when Lommy was just a baby. Infant Lommy was thrown from the car, but somehow survived. It was such a sad article, I started to tear up. I never actually finished reading it because in the middle I woke up and realised I overslept...

Yeah...I never said it was a happy BD dream... :/

Oh, that's quite horrible, Brinn... I'm glad it isn't true and has no chance of becoming so. And this is rather troubling - I have sad dreams about you and you about me...

I had a dram that involved Noggie and spawn planning a party, but that's all I remember...
