Oh, ugh, Suela, that's a dreadful way to face even an ordinary Monday morning, let alone the first one back from Spain.
Dream report: I spent last night, for reasons unknown, hanging out with Ashton Kutcher and poking around in the back rooms of his apartment while he was out visiting his YiaYia (apparently he's half Greek and has an old granny to take care of). Among other things, I found that the
Jackass
tie-in novel he'd been reading was actually a copy of
War and Peace
whose inflammatorily smarty-pants cover he had disguised with
Jackass
publicity shots, and that his storage room contained two impressively large museum-quality glass display cases filled with vintage red leather Ouiji boards and ceremonial Masonic scimitars.
I did think I was dreaming that martin Sheen emailed me. I wake up and immediately check my email!
I just don't even I what. I actually kind of
despise
Ashton Kutcher (unless it turns out he's actually exactly like dream!Kutcher, but that's kind of doubtful).
And in news of our child's brain, Matilda has been watching
The Golden Compass
over and over and is resentful of Hec and me, to the point of tears, that we didn't name her Serafina Pekkala.
I think Ashton is smarter than he looks.(I remember reading about what he studied in college and being pleasantly surprised.)
but he'd kind of have to be smarter than he looks.
I dreamed I was in a plane crash. It wasn't scary, though.
Still, I'd have preferred JZ's dream.
(Also, I keep wanting to say "I dreamt" instead of "I dreamed." But hardly anyone uses that irregular verb, right?)

Well, for good reason; how awesome is that name, after all? (And the character, too.)
After I did some family history research on ancestry.com, my mother announced that if she'd known her grandmother's first name, she would have named me Bridget. Huh.
Sophia, Martin Sheen just emailed me too!
ION, wtf? Also, didn't anybody think this might not be a good idea?
I hate to sound uber paranoid, but it sounds like brainwashing techniques doesn't it?

Yeah, it's the sort of things cults do. I think it gets people to fear everything outside the cult.
