Oh, what a sad dream, I can imagine
 But I am actually honored to appear in your first BD dream, so no hard feelings from my part

I had a dream last night that Lommy was writing an epic poem for the deathday of this mighty forum - in it she would attempt to place the names of all the Downers who had "mattered" over the years.
She was about forty stanzas completed, but she was stuck for a few rhymes, so she posted it on her LJ for us to see & contribute. She was stuck on one particular line in Oromin's verse, it was a third line and the last word of the fourth line needed to rhyme with "day". Rune suggested "effulge", and obstinately stuck to that word, even suggesting it for multiple lines later in the poem. "I don't even know what rhymes with effulge!" cried Lommy, but she wasn't really impressed when I suggested "indulge". I suggested the word "delay", but Lommy shot that down, saying "'delay' and 'day' is too common!" I should mention for *cough* information purposes only, that my verse was first, but it was only three lines long to the standard four.

Lommy is trying hard to be the first dream-poet in the world.
