I had a very short BD-Dream just now (woke up 15 min. ago).

It was very uneventful: TGEW wrote an LJ entry where she complained that Mac had been quite unhelpful and only wanted to state the obviouse, that Lal had been outright rude just because she could not make it work. It was kind of implicit what she was writting about and in my dream I knew it, but just as I was going to make her elaborate my alarm rang. . . For a few seconds I considered skipping my lectures ,so that I could finnish the dream.

What suprised me about this dream was that it involved TGEW, a downer I have had little dealings with. Maybe this was a result of me looking through her photos on Spybook the other day. . .

That's interesting, I don't even have a LJ but okay... But I don't think I would be complaining about Mac or Lal...

However, tonight I had a weird dream, and now that you reminded me of tp's dream, I realise there's something in common... although I already forgot about that one! Anyway... in my dream, Eönwë wrote in a thread something like professions of love to A Little Green. My conclusions from seeing his post were: okay, now he's obviously completely crazy and silly, because A) he doesn't realise that nobody cares about his ramblings, B) he doesn't realise that Greenie didn't express any feelings towards him. Silly one, he just misinterpretated the fact that she wrote in two of her posts, where she was replying to him, something like "kisses" and "hugs", but that was just the usual way for her to end her posts, and in one of the posts she probably wrote it also because she wanted the post not to look too offensive because otherwise she disagreed with him there. Then I caught myself thinking how old the two of them are. And then I woke up.

Apologies to the concerned ones. I have no idea how it happened to come upon the two of you...

I had a dream that BW himself had a couple of BD dreams and posted them here. I don't remember all of them, but one was something like Nogrod wanting to poison me. It was supposed to be an honour killing, or something. Greenie and Legate were related to it too.

Now, I wonder, how sick has your subconscious to be if it assumes someone else's subconscious would come up with ghastly things like honour killings?

I would say that was time by your standards.....

I had a really bizarre dream last night which also had a few Downs-related parts.

I was planning to travel to Bulgaria and had a map of Europe with me. The map was quite out of ordinary, though - as if it wasn't a map but rather a picture taken of a globe, for the perspective was really weird. It had Bulgaria located by the Baltic Sea. I couldn't speak any Bulgarian and didn't know where to look for a dictionary, so I decided to call Brinn and ask if she could scan and send me a few pages of her Europe travel guide where there were some random useful phrases in different European languages. However, she replied to me: "You silly, don't you remember that I left the book and my bag for you in Finland?"

And suddenly I was sitting on the metro with a friend and noticed that Brinn's bag was on the opposite seat. I found the book there easily and tore off a page with some Bulgarian phrases. Then I put it back in the bag and got off the metro. I considered taking the bag with me since Brinn had left it for us to keep until she could return to claim it, but as it was quite heavy I just concluded "Nah, why bother, I can always go and pick it up later at the lost property office."

Then I was in my room with at least Greenie, and suddenly my father came there shouting that he didn't like the Soviet music I listen to, took a cd from my table and left. I tried to explain that the songs on the cd had been composed before the Soviet Union was even established, but he wouldn't listen.
We had been sitting by my laptop all the time, and then we noticed that Rune had started a thread on the Mirth forum, asking people in how many songs they had seen his name. We were going to leave somewhere with our friends, but Greenie and I wanted to write down all the songs we could remember before we left so we were already late (funny, because usually it's us two who are in time). I remembered only The Runes Are Still Alive by Sonne Hagal, but she just kept coming up with new ones.

Then, suddenly, we (Nog, Greenie, Lommy, me, and probably also two other friends of ours) were at Nog's summer cottage. It was autumn, the trees were red, the air was chilly and it was incredibly beautiful. Everybody else but me was wearing a shabby Father Christmas costume and I was sad because I didn't have one. At least Brinn and Rune, I cannot remember who else, were going to come there, too, and we were waiting for them.

That's about it.
