Mutliple #wiigii! dreams last night. Most notable was seeing the Hulk's son Skaar come to Earth to fight Iron Man (there's a lot of back story there), so IM has a plan, calls for people to fill this auditorium/sports ground he has with 17,000 nerds. His words exactly. Iunno how it works, maybe the combined geek mentality will dominate? So, I'm there with a few friends (I was in a section totally empty at first, so was able to bounce down about eight rows of seats on big cushions, but then ahd to move to see other people, blocking our view of the central field). So, trying to see it on a little screen, I turn, there's LV, coolslider, lithrael, astro_l. I make some comment about how they got there, LV simply turns and points at Bryce, who I notice is completly high. Like, bloodshot eyes from hell, and I don't think he knows where he is. Cryptic LV is cryptic.

anyway, non dream stuff - home life is very tense lately. I would make a big post about stuff I plan that gets no support from family, or my work situation, but I find I mostly run out of time; I'm barely ever actually at the computer much. In some ways, I feel like a ghost of myself.

So, #wiigii! dream. I'm in San Diego, and end up at a strip club with Ant, and others. I'm pretty sure Waspy was there too. Initially there's just four of us. Later, as the strippers start coming out, almost in a cavalcade of stars to meet and greet us, I see others. Rapido, Lith, etc. Even a few people I know from here in Perth were there, like Jenny. It's a very non-traditional strip club. I don't actually recall any stripping, just.. conversations. And you could go and get massages, etc. Jenny offered to crunch my back, but I said no, since I thought it might get her in trouble, not being an employee. Anyway, eventually I see my old friend Lis there. Note that at this point in real life, not seen her in a few years - she basically dropped off the radar completely :(. so I'm chatting to her, finding out what happened, when I notice it's dark, andpeople's eyes are glowing red, like under a blacklight. Some people have blue. Others, no glow (I assume I was the same). And checking back in the room, I can see the crowds sitting on the floor, facing the same direction, almost in prayer, but their ears are also quite pointed now.Vampires? Werewolves? I just decide to get out of there, and drag Lis away, so we set about running through the streets of San Diego. Note that the club was right next to the San Diego zoo, as I walked over there from the club before vampire time to grab a map. Eventually she vanishes, and I'm wandering, lost. Later Ant finds me, and we realise I had no US cash on me at all, and I must have found my way to a bus station and fallen asleep there.

Woke up with a worse sore throat. On the plus side, I also woke

a) to the now downloaded #wiigii! Bosstones clip of DANGER WEDDING.
b) after a dream about BEING at said DANGER WEDDING.

not the best, but I have to use GiMP now Photoshop has spazzed out

Yet Another BotCon Dream.

My brain is an engine of chaos.

First dream of note last night: I am working at the zoo. Behind the lion enclosure, in the "night den" region, the lioness is being brought in. Only, something happens and she slips out. After me. I'm slowly backing away as she gets faster. It ends up with her pinning me with one paw, while I dig the fingernails of one hand into her windpipe as hard as I can, trying to keep her paw off my face with her other hand. I said something in the dream of especial note.

Anyway, later, the other keeper involved (who really wasn't at fault) is being blamed by the media. A channel 10 reporter talks to her, distracting her, while elsewhere, a live feed cuts to another reporter "showing how dangerous the zoo is", jumping over barriers etc. I lean into her shot, and call her a "vapid whore" on live national televsion. This makes me feel better.

Anyway, about 5am is when I hit my deepest sleep. And wow was it complex. At an airport, I run into windchaser and autobottrixter. We're going to some convention. These other people end up joining us. We don't really know them, but they know us. I go for a wander, because they're mostly acting like morons. Only one follows me. I tell him I'm meeting a date for lunch, but he keeps following me. I try to lose him, only to end up with this other guy following. And that's when it gets creepy. He says, "You lefties don't have long anyway."

Yeah, basically, some extremely rightwing Transfans are rounding up the "leftie" #wiigii! for nefarious purposes.

So, knowing this, I set about trying to rescue/help people. I eventually find a lot tied up in this room,a nd then it goes into crazy fight mode time. Lots of battles, people I met this weekend turning out to be villains etc. Somehow people I know have powers. In the end, everyone is rescued, yay us (and then the alarm went off, so happy ending).

Only, the best bit. This Asian guy, kinda big, has a change of heart. He helps us. And his power is that when he basically sumo-slams into somehow, he can alter their mass and density, sending them flying off, or making them slam into other people harder. At one point I ask, "You gotta let me know how your power even works!" He had an Einstein t-shirt on.

and I get in the shower after waking, and I realise what his name would have been.

SUPER-COLLIDER.

Soemwhere in the world, an LED sign just flashed this up, because of me.



Oh internets..

To mouse_pad

Come home, son.



Your mother and I miss you.

More crazy dreams.
This time, I was somehow in the US, and visiting xsr. We went straight from the airport (no memory of a flight though), and got takeaway. Some sort of enchilada. Then at his house, we were trying to fix up his computer, which was some sort of dual-case - like if you crossed a PC with a catamaran. The fan on it sounded more like it was a jet engine though, so I promised to buy him a newer, quieter one as a thankyou for putting me up.

Crashing out statistically early tonight.. tomorrow starts my week of observation at John Wollaston College. I'm not looking forward to

getting up at 6am

shaving every day (it rips my skin to pieces)

wearing a tie every day

coming home around 5, and then having to get into assignments I have no idea if I'm doing *right*

not getting the chance to interact regularly with my #wiigii! friends - I really do need their presence just to keep my reality normalised.

In other news, the ear infection continues, but the cough/throat infection seem to be quite reduced. That's good.

Well, wish me luck.

PS I bought the new Flaming Lips album. For $20, it was a good deal. You can guess what my favourite song is.

A map of where #wiigii! folk are located. Go on, add yourself. And because it's allll mine, even if you're not a #wiigii! visitor, add yourself on. It'd be nice to have a good map of where my friends all are.
