After sharing my dream, I thought of starting a wiki where people could share thier dreams and discuss them with everyone. Does anyone know if a wiki like this already exists?
"I had a strange dream..."
Something I utter just about every time I wake up. Anyway, this time, I was at a mall, playing Monopoly in the parking lot with my husband and some German woman (who I am convinced was cheating). It started to rain, so we had to pack it in and go into the mall. There, we went to the arcade, and met some guy that my husband knew. He introduced us to a girl he was "chatting up" there. She was really tall, and blonde and had a big toothy smile that showed a lot of gums (you know the kind of smile I'm talking about). She said "Hi" all sultry-like, grabbed my husband and planted this long kiss on his lips. I shoved her shoulder. She said, "Oh, you don't mind my saying hi to your boyfriend, do ya?" "He's my husband, and I fucking mind," I replied. I shoved her back by her big face, she tried to take a swing at me, but missed. I then beat the living daylights out of her... mostly punching her in the face repeatedly or smacking it into something like the pinball machine. Even after she was completely knocked out, I continued to maul her. I finally dropped her limp body and my husband tried to put his arm around my shoulder. I told him, he'd better not touch me, talk to me, or look at me because I wasn't pleased with his inaction when she kissed him. I said I had to walk outside to gather myself.
When I got outside, it was a big grassy field, surrounded by rainforest. There were ruins off in the distance. I was an Indian, or Native American, or maybe like Mayan or some South American native or something? I was also a man. And my hands were on fire. There were a bunch of us, actually, on fire. Screaming and running around the field. And a small group of old men, medicine men maybe, watching us. Some of the others were completely engulfed in flames. Everyone was screaming and crying, including myself.
"I am on fire. I am in pain. I am going to die. If I don't die, I am going to kill those men who set me on fire." Those were the things I was thinking. Then, it was just pain. No more "I" - I didn't exist anymore. I had transcended. No longer bound by my mortal self, I was able to become a vessel for a god being. I looked towards the ruins and I saw a pathway, shining with golden, magic flame. I knew that was the way I had to go. I didn't feel the fire anymore, even though I was completely covered in the flames now. I motioned to the old men to follow me.
I slowly walked through a maze of ruins, and came upon what was once a bridge, but had been broken long ago. I saw the golden, magic flame illuminate the other side. I proceeded to walk through the air, as if the bridge still existed. My footprints leaving golden, firey marks hovering in the air for a moment, as I progressed to the other side. I looked back across at the old men, who were watching me, mouths open in wonder. They could not follow me now. I found a stone door, at least ten feet high. Impossible for a man to move, but I pushed it open with one hand. The inside was golden and glowing and I knew this is where I was supposed to be. I entered and was consumed completely with the golden fire and a feeling of peace.
Since Elftown will be down on Saturday night and Sunday, and since we have no lives here lol maybe we will run into some of you nice folks on Elfsack. I mean, Elfpack. Y'know, any port in a storm, I guess. If we all get bored. I'm under the same name there, so look me up if'n you are similarly bored. We can look at all the crap over there, shake our heads disapprovingly
The latest Astonishing Xmen is soooooo good! Wolverine is especially vicious *lmao* I really cannot WAIT for the next one to come out. Damn you, Joss Whedon, and your damn cliff hangers!
This might be of interest to some artistic and charity minded folks here in Elftown...

We watched "Blade Runner" last night - I haven't seen that movie in I dunno how long. It made me realize ALL OVER AGAIN how far ahead of it's time it was. That goes ditto for "Alien." Ridley Scott is da man.
I was also thinking, if Xmen the movies had been made back in the day, Rutger would have made a good Wolverine. Or, not to knock Ian McKellan's portrayal, he might have made a cool Magneto, too.
Unfortunately, Rutger, last I saw him, was mired in a horrible made-for-tv movie remake of "Poseidon." On the bright side, he gave a better performance than a haggard, sunbaked, leatherface C. Thomas Howell... on the not-so-bright side, that ain't sayin' much. If you do come across that movie, it is worth some cheap laughs when Steve Gutenberg rips the sleeves off his shirt to show us he's had plenty of time to work out since "Cocoon."
Is anyone else reading Marvel's "Civil War"?
...you really should. It's fantastic.
*laughing so hard soda shoots out nose*
Gotta love the Perry Bible Fellowship by Nicholas Gurewitch...
By chance, we wandered into a comic shop yesterday and picked up "Battle Pope" - which neither Matt nor I have heard of before. COMEDY GENIUS! The official website isn't up yet, but wikipedia has a lil' tidbit about it. It's definitely worth hiking over to the comic shop to take a look through. And if it doesn't grab you in the first few pages, then your sense of humor must be in a coma.

Today we had a break from humid and sunny. It's overcast, drizzling, and cool. Perfect weather in my opinion. I think I need to move someplace that is more often like this. Any suggestions?
I am reminded a lot of my visit to Ireland a while ago. I was there for the whole month of September and it was beautiful. I have no idea what it's like the rest of the year though. Salisbury, England is quite tolerable in July as I recall.
I don't want to ruin anything for anyone wanting to see X3, so I'll just say one thing:
"Don't you know who I am?"
A thoroughly enjoyable follow up to the first two Xmen movies.
And the Ghost Rider trailer preceeding it rocked, too!
We got a late wedding gift/my birthday present yesterday from Matt's family:
an XBOX360!!!!!!!
So, I had to run out and buy Oblivion... let's just suffice it to say that I stayed up until 6:30 this morning playing. Oh man, this is gonna be bad lol
But oh so good!!!
*dying from exposure to too much cuteness*
...and I only looked at the kittens.

Ever since we picked up Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance for a bargain at $7.99 last week, and finished it in two days, I have been hankering for more 2 player rpg action! I went a little crazy on eBay and bought Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance II (which they say is kinda hard to find, and indeed our local game resale shops did not have it), Champions of Norrath: Realms of Everquest, Champions: Return to Arms, Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (a little scifi rpg to go with the fantasty), and Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel (a post-apocalypt
Matt is wondering when I will break down and buy World of Warcraft. =I
*fights the darkside*
nooooooooooooo
I know too many people who have been lost to WoW! lol
Maybe if we got a 2nd computer and Matt could play, too, then I would consider it - but chances are we'd get an Xbox360 or PS3 before that! Has anyone played Oblivion yet? I haven't but Matt's brother has - the screenshots look amazing. Too bad it isn't available for online play, but I read that there's something like 200+ hours of gameplay in there, so *shrug* sounds totally worth it to me!
Ah poo - someone else signed the lease out from under us. =/ Back to hunting!
Matt and I are in the midst of writing a business plan for our store, which we have decided to name Little Akiba after the Akihabara district near Tokyo, Japan. Akihabara is best-known as one of the largest shopping areas on Earth for electronic, computer, anime, and otaku goods. The locals refer to it as Akiba. So far, this has been the hardest thing I've had to do - I guess because so much hinges on it and it is completely new territory - I've never had to write a business plan, have you?). We have found a perfect spot for lease only five blocks away from our house, and the property owner seemed incredibly interested in our ideas for the shop. She sent me an email tonight to tell me someone else who has shown interest in the location is ready to finalize a lease on Monday *gulp* Must move fast. Finish the plan, show it to who we have to show it to, cross fingers and hope we haven't lost the opportunity at this location. Not that we wouldn't continue to pursue it at another place, but who wouldn't like to work five blocks away from their house?
So, please, keep your fingers crossed for Matt and I. We can use all the help we can get. It's a very nervous and exciting time for us!
