I dreamt of a BD meeting in Helsinki. There were lots of non-'downers present (like some people from my Uni and Legate's RL friends), but also a healthy 'downer representation: Nogrod, Greenie, Legate, Aganzir and me hosting, and at least Rikae, Mac, Fea, Nienna, Lari, Brinn, Mith, Esty and Boro visiting. The first thing we did was to go to see some church.

We took a bus, and in the bus Rikae was talking a lot and giggling in a very loud and fake manner all the time. When we got off the bus, Greenie confided in me in a very disappointed voice: "I don't like her. I think she's annoying." I happpened to agree, but decided to wait until making judgements. So I said: "Let's give her some time, she's just shy so she can't be herself in such a crowd. Mac is shy too, you know."

When we had seen the church (which looked suspiciously Italian, not Finnish), we decided to make our way back, but before we could arrange anything, Fea said "see you at Nogrod's place!" and disappeared with Lari and someone else, possibly Boro. We others started making our way to Nog's place. At some point, Nogrod noticed Nienna was missing. "Where is she?" he asked. "I think she booked a room in a hostel, so she has gone there," I replied. Nogrod frowned. "She should have known she could've stayed the evening with us anyway, it's not even 8pm yet."

Soon we arrived to the yard of the block of flats where Nog lives. Suddenly Rikae spurted away from everyone else and to the road. She got almost driven over by several cars. She was standing on the pavement on the other side and shouting something. Mac followed her and tried to cool her down, but she was running to the road again. We all watched the scene in utter confusion. "She has one of her fits," Brinn whispered to me and I was led to realise that Rikae suffers from some strange mental illness.

While Rikae was having her fit and Mac was trying to restrain her from getting driven over by the cars, a police car appeared. A policeman (who looked exactly like the cop in Edward Scissorhands) came out holding a little girl on his arms. We immediately recognised her as one of Rikae's daughters. "She was in an accident. Her leg and arm are broken, but she's ok," the policeman explained and left us with the girl. Someone had to take care of the girl and her family was busy elsewhere, so we (everybody present, but especially Nog, Brinn and me) took her to Nog's flat. Nogrod, who was actually a doctor, put her leg and arm in splints and Brinn and I made her some hot chocolate while we waited for Rikae and Mac to come to her.

Then, either the same or the following night, we all went to a bar. We met Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan there, and together we raised a glass for Gondor.

Interesting, eh? My apologies to Rikae, my subconscious did mishandle her quite badly!

I dreamt that Squatter invited me to stay at his palace, here we spend alot of time walking arround a pool. At one point Squatter bought two scratchers and we one £ 8.000.000 on them, but for some reason I only recived DKK 80.000 on my bank account. . . anyways I was happy because I could pay off my debt and go to Boston.

The scene changes, I am in some random flat. Here I am told that it was all just a dream and that I did not win any money, but Cosmo Cramer shows up and tells me not to worry, he will get me some scratchers and it is a sure thing that I will win. It turns out he just bought some magazines and wrote some numbers on them.

All of the sudden I am back in my own room, here squatter is sitting on my sofa with a big grin on his face, he looks at me and says "we won". Proudly he shows me the scratcher he had previously hidden behind his back. . . I get all exited, that is until I get a look at our winnings, they are at a total of DKK 10

Last night I dreamed that everyone was playing WW, and we couldn't manage to kill a wolf! Which is admittedly not that strange in itself, but the wolves never managed to send in their vote on time, and there was never a nightly killing. Finally, the mod (I don't remember who it was) realized the problem - he'd forgotten to make any of us wolves.
