Fiddle-Dee-Dee, Said Scarlett

Instead of talk about things that are going on here, I'm going to tell you about the dream I had last night. Trust me, you'd much rather hear the dream.

So, I was apparently a Sith in training, and was at an orientation kind of thing. Which seemed to consist of hanging out in a cocktail lounge attached to the bridge of the Death Star. We were watching the bridge stuff, and we were all watching Darth Vader and were all in awe. There were all these tv screens everywhere, and first they showed an evacuation video - entitled 'What To Do If There's Only 2 Seconds To Live' or something - and I was with this other person and we were apparently supposed to be blowing up an elevator shaft or something. Then we all gathered around the TV screen in the lounge, because Darth Vader was leaving and we weren't allowed to look at him. But there was an ad for Pokemon on the TV, and Darth Vader stopped and said he loved Pokemon, and then said he wished he had a Dinobot pokemon. And I had one in my pocket apparently, so I gave it to him, and he was all happy.

I hope you enjoyed this installation of Fey's Really Fucked Up Dreams.

I have a routine when it comes to my nights. 10 - 11:30, I watch The Simpsons and South Park. 11:30 - 12:00 I watch Family Guy. 12:00 to 12:15 I wash up for bed, and make it back to the TV in time for Aqua Team Hunger Force and Shin Chan.

Last night I was running late. I was feeling crappy, so I had tea out on the deck, hoping the combination of tea and fresh air would settle my stomach. I came inside a little after 12:30, and plopped down to watc Shin Chan. Only Shin Chan wasn't on. I found myself staring at a rather generic looking anime scene, and immediately was upset. Changes in my routine do not please me.

But then I looked a little closer and thought 'whatever this is, it's familiar'. Which is remarkably unhelpful, because I've seen so much damn anime that there's a good chance whatever I tune in to is familiar. But, a couple more very bizarre landscape scenes and I started to get suspicious.

My suspicions were right. Adult Swim is now playing, from the very first episode, Bleach every weekday night. So I can actually watch it. Technically I've seen 25 episodes, but damned if I remember much of it at all. I think I can remember maybe five or six scenes altogether from everything I've seen. So now I can actually finally see it. Huzzah!

And it clearly influenced my dreams, because Rukia and Ichigo were both in them. I was staying at a hotel in some city, and Ichigo was staying in the room next door, and a Hollow attacked and I remember trying to hide in a mall, and then we had to fight ninjas, but they were dinosaur ninjas. And somehow we ended up lost at sea, and we couldn't find edible fish, and then it shifted and I was in a golf tournament with Simon (why he is the Firefly character I consistently dream about, I will never know) and we were playing against porn stars and I was in my Lust cosplay, but it split open and I had to borrow a robe from chocomimi....

I blame my flu meds.

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.

Happy birthday, momoiro_usagi!

I hope you have an awesome one, and I'll be posting a little something special for you later!

I had a dream that I moved to San Diego with mikazuki, rivendellrose, coramegan and a girl from High School I haven't seen in years. We moved there because we used to live in Texas with Roy, but Roy discovered a plot by devout military monks to cut Texas off of America and become a single country. There were fires and rioting and we all drove to San Diego. Roy got his own place.

I have been craving lamb sausage for days. Lamb sausage is nearly impossible to lay hands upon. I cannot order it online. I cannot find it in any stores near me. I have found it only at that small butcher's shop in Seattle, tucked away in the market place and offering the most delicious cuts of meat. I must make do with turkey sausage, which simply isn't the same.

On today's agenda is RO. Further adventures with Feylene and Miss Cori, the valiant archer and her noble sword wielding lady.

I really need some breakfast.

I just wanted to say huge, huge congratulations to rivendellrose and nekokoban! You guys made it! I remember the stress and the crunching and the pure hell that school was sometimes for you guys, and now it's all paid off! I'm so happy for you guys, and I'm sorry I'm going to be too late for the celebrations!

(And if you want a celebratory ficlet, let me know!)

RO today! Wheee! Miss Cori and Feylene will continue their grand adventure!

If this weren't a congratulations post, I would so be showing off my sexy new Kyouya icon. Because it is the sexiest Kyouya icon ever. I had dreams about Ouran Host Club last night. Cori was Haruhi, I was Tamaki, there were demons and King Midas running around, and catgirls. It was all very strange.
