So. Nightmares.

Something to do with glowy faces and low-flying helicopters and doorbells. Whatever it was, it ended with my waking myself (and my roommate *winces*) an hour early by yelling: "Give us the owls! Give us the owls!"

And then, after getting back to sleep (ish) and waking up at a more reasonable time, I go to watch a totally random, never-before-seen Avengers episode before breakfast.

And the episode? Is "Too Many Christmas Trees", featuring Steed going progressively insane due to mind-controlly nightmares. Heehee!

So, y'know, if I start loudly singing songs and obsessing over socks and Santa Claus and handing out pens with tear gas, that's probably why.

(Best possible microcosm of The Avengers: Steed and Emma discussing a murder case, all serious-like. Perfectly normal dialogue. But, for no apparent reason, Emma is sitting on the couch, playing a freakin' huge tuba, and Steed's standing on tables shooting golf balls all over the place. No wonder I love this show!)

Also: the response on my request for fic-related assistance? Absolutely overwhelming. You guys rock!

Awesome find at Costco today: all nine seasons of the X-Files for $19.99 (CDN) each!  Ooh.  Didn't buy any, alas.  But it's there!

First wacky sleep-deprived dream of the week:

I'm in my hotel room, reading a book or something, and the doorbell rings.  Surprise!  It's Robert Sean Leonard.  Alas, it doesn't look like he's here to play doctor (*rimshot*), so it's not that sort of a dream.  No, he just stands there, crosses his arms, and says: "You know, you still haven't watched the third season of "House" yet.  That's very disappointing."  And what can I say but: "Oh.  Sorry about that."  And then he leaves.

So I bought the third season this afternoon.  W00t!

Second wacky sleep-deprived dream of the week:

I'm a secret agent of some sort, delivering a violent criminal/thief and his accomplice to somewhere-or-other on a train, for reasons that aren't adequately explained.  Since I'm apparently a really, really lousy secret agent, I tell a random guy on the bus to keep an eye on these violent criminals while I rush out to the washrooms, passing a random mumbling guy en route.  For some reason, while I'm there I run into a friend from school, who becomes quite engrossed in telling me about her job as a "fountain attendant", which I'm sure is fairly interesting, but this is the point where I realise that I left violent criminals on a bus with some guy.  And, since this thing seems to have taken a distinctly sci-fi turn, I run off, shouting: "The phrase "fate of the world" was created for exactly this sort of situation!"  Which is kind of a cool comeback, but makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.  Oh, well.   So I'm running up to the bus, nearly 100% sure that these people have escaped by now, and I almost crash into crazy mumbling guy.  And then I realize that he's repeating "Adrian" over and over again, which is the name of one of the criminals.  He notices I'm listening and points to the bus, saying: "Adrian!" again, then points towards a convenient copse of trees.  Of course, this is the point where the accomplice, on the other side of the bus, makes a run for it.  I run and tackle her, and notice that crazy guy has started after this Adrian guy, who's also made a run for it.  And then we catch the bad guys and there's a parade.  Or something.

Generally, I don't remember my dreams (or they're so boring I wake up - chopping carrots, for instance)- but last night was the exception. It was delightfully surreal, and I remember it in quite a lot of detail, so I thought I'd share.

It was also the first dream I've had in three years where a fencing tournament didn't end in my falling over and breaking my leg. Huzzah!

Of course, I still didn't get to fence. Stupid distractions. )

Yeah. Have fun analysing that one. :D
