I woke myself up laughing again.

Dreamt I was holding a "Bring a Random" party. Attendees had to find some total stranger and convince them to come to a party. people were turning up with someone they met at the bus stop, in the newsagent, library, Ann Summers shop.

Doorbell goes, and on the doorstep is a friend of mine, one John MacKinnon. He is entirely capable of being his own Random, as he is in fact an Agent of Chaos. Mistakes, calamity and wierdness follow in his wake like July follows June.

However, the redoubtable Mr M is not on his own. Accompanying him is the Burmese State Dwarf Opera company, 350 strong, dressed as Macedonian hoplites. The little guy with the fancy helmet standing next to him hands me a business card that simply says "Alexander" on it, fixes me with a steely glare and says:

"We were told there would be canapes. Remember Tyre? There were no canapes."

Then I woke up laughing....

Har har har , I love livid dreaming , not so much livid nightmares though , which thankfully have been few . I found out that my dreams are in color from one .
Decades ago I remember making a detailed mental note of my surroundings at the moment I realized that I was dreaming .

I don't remember much of it now , except for saying to myself that a certain shade of red was so garish and how could anyone want that on their walls . :)

I got inspired by Bruder Cuzzen's post and starded a dream thread in Miscellaneous Discussion.

So, how'd it go??

=============

In the ChattyWorld---Brandy's out of the hospital and responding well to treatment for her ulcer. Tammy still has all the kids.

AND!! A wonderful Box o' Cool Stuff arrived from Canada!!

I'll meet up with Tammy and the kids Thursday or Friday and pass it on. The girls are especially excited about having a tea set that the boys can't break! The boys are all into the movies...

Thank you, O Pirate of the Seas to the North!!

Well, I think. Came off as appropriately nerdy and as a good salesperson. And three of the four non-managerial staff love me (the other one hasn't met me). Another one of my co-workers (who's a customer of theirs) sang my praises.  :mrgreen:
Pretty hopeful prospects, I believe.

Good to hear things are getting better and the kids are happy.

It should be! I have a second interview coming up soon--don't know when since it's with the DM and he has to tell the SM when he can meet me.
;D Should be epic. Working with one of my best friends and a bevy of awesome people.

Sounds like an awesome thing, there, Pachy.  :mrgreen:

I am so glad I didn't become a lawyer. Legalese is a language all to itself, and I don't speak it. I know me, and that fact that I can be considered an "expert" on anything is more than a little scary....


On the plus side, legal stuff pays well. (It has to, it kills the soul a little at a time)

On a bigger plus, I'm off to Gibraltar for a long weekend. Sun, sand and sangria, here I come! :drunkburp:
