I'm dying to relate this, please to forgive. So last night I had a long saga of a dream, in which I was Mal Reynolds' daughter (clearly an AU because he was now "Nathan" Reynolds). Teenage me met him and Wash on a planet where they were doing A Thing and they were both dressed smartly in the height of fashion for men at that place: Darling little dresses and flats and cunning little hats. They both obviously felt ridiculous but were manfully pulling off The Look, and were exasperated with Teenage Me for giggling at them. But really, Wash's little white pointelle dress and white-and-emerald square-toed shoes were simply divine. Conclusion: Wash/my subconscious is a better fashion designer than I am. Conclusion 2: Cap'n Reynolds is a great father, if often absent, and he is proud of me.
tl;dr I have surprisingly inappropriate feelings for Captain Reynolds.
My only question is, why did you wake up?
It's a matter of air flow.
That's a great dream. Probably needs to be written up and distributed and then built into an AU fanfic franchise.
Yes, that would get a thousand likes on Ao3.
I have passed the "decide everything is awful and you want to burn it" stage and into the "stare at it until your brain stops processing any information at all" stage of designing Save the Date postcards.
I had a dream last night that I was shopping in a Costco-sized store that only sold cheese, charcuterie, and books. It doesn't qualify as fanfic, but that was a pretty damn good dream.
That would also get a thousand likes on AO3.
I had SO MUCH prosciutto and asiago. And dream!Tim asked if we needed to rent a U-Haul to bring all the books home.
One of my friends has been giving me a hard sell about adopting one or two kittens from a particular litter out in the town of Tomales. Her favorite most special cat ever came from the same Farm.
Lily cat *is* a cat that should have another cat friend. Java couldn't have cared less if there were other cats in the house or not, but Lily has always been with another cat.
After 6 months of dealing with Java's diabetes, where I had to cancel or change every plan that I had so that I would always be at home between 7-8 a.m. and p.m. to test his blood glucose​ and shoot insulin.... I really would like to travel, even just get away for a couple of days. For sure do something this summer again, PNW if nothing else.
I told her no, that it wouldn't be fair to get a kitten and then go away. I woke up this morning and looked at Lily and wondered if I should.
