A week or so ago I had a dream that The Saucepan Man never left the 'downs but just registered with a new username and started posting with that - and actually, Morthoron has just been the second account of SPM all along.

Yesterday I had a dream that I can't really remember anymore. I was reading in different languages, and I was trying to read in Danish. Rune was correcting me. According to dream-Rune, s sometimes makes a sh sound in Danish if some stressed or unstessed vowels line up in some order. You know, some weird complicated grammar. Also, his appearance kept switching back and forth between his real self and his Marx avatar.
I wish dream-Rune taught me how to read the o with the / through it. I never heard it pronounced aloud, so I still don't get the difference between that and the regular o.

Pronouncing the Ø is difficult, it is a favorite passtime of the Danes to make foreigners say the phrase 'Rødgrød med fløde'. But here is a fun fact: 'Ø' is also a one letter word, meaning 'Island'. So is our equally amazing letter 'Å', which means 'Stream/Creek'. |

I had a dream a Downer called Inzilbeth had to get married for whatever reason, so she proposed to Inziladun because their usernames were similar. I was hanging out with Inzil, who, unhappily married to her, related this story to me and also said he's taking weekly singing lessons in Costa Rica.
Then I went to pick apples and had to watch out for Deathberries which had infested the tree and killed you if you so much as touched one. I didn't think of it in the dream, but the phonetic resemblance to Bêthberry is remarkable.

Last night I dreamed a group of Downers got stranded on a desert island and decided to build a community there. When I arrived later by boat, Pitchwife was really excited about the car he was making out of wood and stone, Inzil was responsible for organising the food gathering parties (and collecting everybody's phone number, which he insisted on doing in fluent Swedish), and Boro was grumpy and wanted to be the boss.
