I'm on vacation. I need to pack but I also need to finish doing a write up for the trip. I then realize that somehow I've brought the desk (A desk from Castle Highland that almost killed the Yeti with paint fumes) with me and I need to figure how to ship it home. I'm also concerned what will I do at home until the desk arrives.
These are the bits I remember: I saw Dave Grohl and his friend, both completely naked standing at the edge of the stadium watching a Giant's game. Then I'm below decks in a yacht, looking through a giant set of windows as the boat does a complete barrel roll.
I was working on Deadpool 3. We were in Hall H.
I dreamt I was in a lightsaber duel but my lightsaber was malfunctioning.
Not a dream.
I awoke around 1am to a frenzy of kicking in the bed, one of which hit me hard in the leg. Dammit, somehow Aoife must have escaped from the mudroom where she and Lily spend the night. I then realized I needed to get out of bed to rescue the cat food on the counter that I had left out for the next day. Certainly, that would Aoife's next stop. As I passed the door to the laundry room which leads to the mud room, I noticed the door was still closed. That was even more troubling. How did Aoife get into the house? First, I had to find Aoife. I flicked on the lights in the living room. No sign of Aoife. Or Lilly. They must be still locked up. This led to one conclusion.
I came back to the bedroom to find the Queen standing at the end of the bed.
"That wasn't Aoife was it?"
"No"
The Queen had a bad dream where she fought zombies. The frenzy in the bed was her lashing out. My left thigh paid the price. The thigh feels like I have huge charlie horse under the skin.
Nice to know tQ still gotz legs.
Be grateful it was your thigh and not higher and more central.
Don’t know what’s with me this week. Had a worse dream a few nights ago, woke up with sleep paralysis, absolutely certain I was going to be attacked by the bad man that I could still see at the edge of the bed and feel myself being held down/restrained. Had to walk around for a half an hour after I broke free of that one. Just a few seconds of the paralysis but damn, that’s scary.
I don’t know what was with the zombies last night. Here’s hoping tonight is peaceful!
Greg isn’t that bad
Is he?
To clarify: It’s *never* Greg I’m fighting in the dreams. Sometimes it’s genuinely some kind of movie-ish monsters. There have been Trump-attacking-me nightmares more than once; sometimes other people I’ve known. I’m always relieved and happy to wake up where I am!
Yikes. Never had a tRump dream. Ew.
Have I fought Greg in a dream? I wonder. I know I’ve had dreams fighting with the CFs & Herr Yeti Trainrider, but we were usually on the same side.
Usually.
Herr Yeti ZugFahren
Sure she's fighting all these people. But who ends up with the bruises?
I'm in a marsh off a seawater lagoon and there is a natural barrier between the marsh and the lagoon of tree branches and bramble. I spot a dolphin swimming in the pools of the marsh and then going back and forth under the barrier into the lagoon. The dolphin was standing on its tail out of the water almost as if posing for pictures. The Queen shows up and climbs over the barrier to get closer to the dolphin for a better picture. She got too close. The dolphin smacks her a couple of times with a fin before the Queen falls back into a pool.
I'm positive it wasn't a revenge dream for getting kicked.

Ha!
What this dream was trying to tell me was writ large with a three inch wide sharpie.
I'm at the airport with the Queen. When we get to the spot where they take the tickets, we are informed that the plane is full and there is only one seat left. They take the Queen's ticket and she is allowed on the plane. I'm told to go back to ticketing and arrange for a later flight. I notice that I'm missing my wrist watch. I realize I must have left it in the hotel room where we stayed the night before the flight. I go back to the room where the maids are cleaning up. I find a watch, but it is not my watch. I also notice I left behind a bag and some books and cables to recharge the watch. I grab all the stuff and go to find ticketing.
I ride escalator after escalator trying to find ticketing. At one point I stumble into a kids arcade. On another level, I'm surrounded by stores all catering to an adult crowd. The floor is packed with people in formal evening wear. I make it to the roof where there are these narrow shiny aluminum walkways. I feel I can easily fall off these walkways. I can see giant 747 with their distinctive humps waiting to take off. At some point, I find four security guards. I ask them how can I get to ticketing so I can get out of here. They remain silent.
I think I bumped back into the Queen and the family in a departure lounge. They want to know how come I haven't redone my tickets yet. I don't have any idea.
As Drax would say "Metaphor"
