"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I wish the ghost of Edward R. Murrow would pop up at the studio like a vengeful Kayako from Ju-On and haunt everyone involved in that broadcast to their richly deserved final fate.

One of the neat things about dreams is the way identity can be so fluid in them. The other day I had a dream that started out as watching a movie, then my viewpoint sort of rushed forward through the Fourth Wall and I became one of the characters I'd been watching. Though perhaps, since the movie in question was a Vince Vaughn remake of Ishtar, I should describe it as a nightmare rather than a dream.

What is even happening?

I, for one, have never regretted following the example set by my ostrich overlords, and have nearly no idea what is going on in the high pressured world of orange juice that is so startling those Buffistas more in tune with current events.

The local Fox newscasters were clearly disgusted at having to mention that the shows were going to be broadcast on their station. FWIW.

The Borders across the street from my building has opened! I think I know what I'm doing for my lunch hour....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That happens to me a lot. I get dreams where I alternate from watching a movie on TV to being one of the charactes to being the omniscient observer. Sometimes I loose track of my relation to the story.

Theodosia -- a Borders right across the street? That sound very dangerous.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Last night Nilly was really mad at me.

Now that's a really bad dream. I dreamed I was at a party and I had a long talk with this guy and he asked if he could call me. I know that probably doesn't sound remarkable, except that it's never actually happened to me in real life.

eta: The problem with this, in my dream, was that he lived in Alabama.

Compassionately intolerant

Have another interview tomorrow. Yikes! I kind of figured this one was dead, but now I'm getting thrown to the higher-ups, which seems like it must be a good sign.

brenda! I was so caught up in my disappointment in humanity, I blew right past this.

Good luck! Being thrown to higher-ups has always been a good sign in my experience. May they laud you and shower you with everything you want.

If Nilly were mean to me, I would know right away it was a dream!
