Last night was the most clear cut example of my brain spitting up everything from the day into my dreams. It started out with running around a convention with my sister dressed as Sailor Senshi. Somewhere along the line ti changed, and I was in a pirate cave. But it was an evil pirate cave and there was a curse on the treasure. I was stuck on a ledge, and there was this... round thing in the middle. Like a pile of thick stone discs. It had a stone face and it talked and it had rotating knives that stuck out of it. It moved through the caves. Spike, from Cowboy Bebop, showed up. He was trying to outrun the thing with knives, and he was doing pretty good. But then some kind of monster thing showed up, and the floor opened up and they fell. I think I screamed. The disc thing ws coming back, and it turned out Spike hadn't fallen, he'd grabbed my ledge. I hauled him up and he thanked me and we hung out there and had a cigarette together. Then these two adventurer people showed up. Now we notice that in the confusion of the floor falling, there's a round cage full of jewels in the middle of the room.

The two newcomers approach it, and then have to run from the disc thing, and then they see us. I ask Spike quietly if he thinks he can shoot them, and he lets me know that he can. But one of them points a gun at me and tells him if he shoots, I'm dead. Apparently he's grown fond of me, because he drops his gun. The two guys head over to the treasure cage, and manage to crawl through the bars. We think this is a Bad Idea. We don't say anything, and some stuff happens that culminates in a car driving through the side of the cave.

Spike picks me up and carries me down, and somewhere along the line he changes into Jonny Depp and we come out in Disney World. We walk around a bit, and he asks me if I need a wheelchair. I tell him yes, and he goes off to get it. I duck into a salon for a skin treatment because my skin is so dry, and the woman's all 'you're getting a skin treatment in Disney World?!?' and I said 'I'm here with Jonny Depp, you'd be getting a skin treatment too!'. And then I ended up with purple and white wings, and Jonny Depp had turned back into Spike and we went on some rides and then I woke up.

Clearly, all that talk about the Pirate Movie and the bullshit about them changing the original pirates ride at Disney is getting to me. I still can't get over that. They based the fucking movie on the most well loved attraction in the park... and then change the fucking ride to match the movie! WTF? I loved that ride. It was my favorite ride. And now they pull this shit! That's the one of, if not the, oldest damn Disney rides there is. It was Walt Disney's favorite! Why are they changing Walt Disney's favorite ride?!? Walt Disney! Thank god the one in Disneyland is staying the same, else I'd be pitching a much bigger fit.

I'm telling you, these pirate movies are doing nothing to endear themselves to me.
