Green Room - Week 9 - Day 6

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

I had a dream.

I had an awesome dream.

People in the park playing games in the dark
I sailed away to China, in a little rowboat to find ya. And you said you had to get your laundry cleaned.

The candy colored clown they call the sandman tip toes into my bedroom every night, it might be hard to handle. But like the flame that burns the candle, the candle feeds the flames.

It seemed so real. And you were there. And you. And you were there too!

I had gathered you together, and you were writing things. Then I was eliminating you. Not by who your ancestors were. But by the content of your character and the sweat of your brow.

I dreamed that we bought the world a Coke, and kept it company - then we took that Coke over to the polls, and introduced it to some of the great entries found there: http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/414212.html

Then we took it over to see what the Second Chancers were doing http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/414642.html

And then I drank it, because why was anyone really trying to befriend a Coke anyway? It's not like people weren't already looking at you strange for carrying on a conversation with it! Believe me, they were.

What are your dreams?

first?

ETA: Wow! I happened to refresh at just the right time, before I even got the e-mail notification! Yay!

My dreams would not be appropriate for public consumption ;)

[ravenshrinkery.livejournal.com]

You cheated. First, but without a real comment. ;)

[ravenshrinkery.livejournal.com]

First? Maybe, maybe not by the time I've finished this entry.

Out at my in-laws. We went to bingo with my GM-in-law. It was a blast although none of us won a damn thing. It's charity though, and I have to wonder if bingo brings in more money than the offering plate.

Tomorrow we go see my dad and maybe tear up some old paperwork from that mess my mother left behind. The girls are being bouncy terrors, but we love them all the same.

I love your icon:)

My dreams include finally getting my college degree and raising my children to at least be somewhat happy and self-supporting.

But short term, my dreams are to get in my fingerprinting appt tomorrow (which keeps getting canceled due to the snow) so that I can apply on time for field experience.

And I am dreaming of passing my Math Competency test this week and...(of course) of my entry in SCI being something that is read by many and something that can speak to the readers in some way.

I have too many dreams.

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

You can never have too many dreams. I promise :)

[drjeff.livejournal.com]

I'm just about to find out what my dreams are, as I'm going to bed in about 30 minutes.

See you tomorrow!

I think this Green Room topic deserves a little musical accompaniment:

"There I was, skipping through Mirkwood Forest with my good friend Tom Bombadil. But that got boring, so snip, snip, snip. Next thing I know, I'm running on a carpet of woodland animals. You know--giraffes, sloths, children. I tripped and flew into the sky, where I ate cotton candy clouds and gummy drop bumblebees. Well, you know, you were there. And you were there. And you--who the hell are you? Why don't you get out of your mom's basement and get a job? Sheesh. It was the best dream I ever had. And then you woke me up. NOT GOOD!"

("The Balrog Blues" - Fellowship!)

Entries! The only tribe that I've read in its entirety so far is Tribe 3, so I'm going to recommend three favorites of mine that could use a bit more love: courtney_ke, furzicle, and so_small. I will continue with Tribe 4 once I've done a bit more reading for school. :)

[ravenshrinkery.livejournal.com]

And for some reason, maybe because my brain is fried, that put "Why Don't You Get A Job" by The Offspring in my head.

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

Currently my dreams are mainly of the "just get through the next five weeks and hand in your goddman thesis" variety.

Although I did dream I was eating cheese the other night. Man it was good cheese too.

[cheshire23.livejournal.com]

What kind of cheese?

And very much luck to you on getting through the thesis. I think you'll find esteletheque's entry for the week something you can relate to, if you haven't seen it yet.

It was a dinosaur apocalypse and nothing but partying to the pounding pulse of the bass beat would keep them at bay. IDEK?

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

dinosaurs are good!

[chris-walsh.livejournal.com]

You were dreaming when you wrote that. Of course it went astray! (Whether we forgive you or not is another question.)

My dreams? I write about them a lot (http://chris-walsh.livejournal.com/tag/dreams). Like this (http://chris-walsh.livejournal.com/1099037.html). Oh I could flood you with dreams -- even dreams with flooding, like in Inception -- but what good would that do?

And now that both my computer and my monitor are cooperating, I'm pondering whether or not I want to play the home game. Pondering, pondering...

...and glad this is still going on.

[the-vernacular.livejournal.com]

I dreamed a dream that I was going to have time to read and comment on all the entries this week given the three day weekend, but the tigers come at night, with their voices soft as thunder, and they suck up your time doing things like IRL errands that keep getting put off and you don't get to read that week. :-( So sad!

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

<3 this comment. loved it a lot.

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

Although why no one has yet dreamed last night they got on a boat to heaven I will never know!

[the-vernacular.livejournal.com]

I did that! Can you believe by some chance i had brought my dice along?

[cheshire23.livejournal.com]

I have a very annoying recurring dream:

I dream that I overslept and am late for work. This leads to me getting out of bed in a panic way too early. Once after such a dream, I mis-read a clock in such a way that I got on the bus an hour earlier than I actually needed to and was VERY confused when nobody else was at work yet. Oops.

[the-vernacular.livejournal.com]

I have this dream! I hate that so much!

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Honestly, I'm sure that I must have dreams, but it is extremely rare that I remember them!

Right now I'm hanging out with the hubby in Tennessee - we cuddled up in the huge jacuzzi tub earlier, which was nice. Heading back home tomorrow!

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

My dreams? I can't actually share what my dreams are because I'm sure they're illegal in most states in this country. And seeings how I enjoy my freedom, I'll just keep 'em to myself. :-)

Had a wonderful weekend with my sweetheart. She's the bestest thing ever. At my begging/pleading, she made me the most delicious chocolate/peanut butter milkshake EVER. Though being severely lactose intolerant, I am now suffering the consequences but I have zero regrets!!!!

Off to bed soon. Hope everybody had a fantastic weekend!

[locknkey.livejournal.com]

May you and the sweetie share sweet dream. :)

[applespicy.livejournal.com]

I recently had a dream where I became a motorcycle human hybrid and carried a guy from Gondor to fight Lord Voldemort.

Legit. It ruled.

[locknkey.livejournal.com]

I need dreams like that.

I'm a little ashamed at how far my comments got up-thread to the extent we're already at 185 comments and the GR has only been up a little more than an hour. I think I got a bit carried away, but at least some newbies got involved in the discussion! And now I feel like this will be a good GR for theafaye to link her crush post >.>

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

She really needs to link it here...

I wonder if our thread may inspire others to get frisky and indulge their crushes too!

[michikatinski.livejournal.com]

I was having the most fascinating, intricate, detailed dream when suddenly I was awoken by the sound of a...well, of a fussing child. My child. My beautiful, wonderful child. I got up in a haze, fed her, changed her, and came back to bed. By then, I'd forgotten my dream.

Who the hell cares? :)

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Oh man... way to go, Captain Buzzkill! (aka your corndog :-p)

[theafaye.livejournal.com]

Come one, come all and share your secret (or not so secret) Idol crushes!

http://theafaye.livejournal.com/187269.html

You can be as anonymous as you like, so there's no excuse :oP

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

I wonder if I should also mention the poll and discussion in my journal that talks about how differently people define/use the word "crush"?

[quoting-mungo.livejournal.com]

I have no clue what my dreams were aside from leaving my hair in a state of FOOF! And I have very straight slinky hair that doesn't very readily go FOOF.

Darn unrestful sleep.

Needless to say I'd just gone to bed right before this GR was posted. Maybe it was a good thing or else I would have stayed up all night!

Anyway.

Good Morning GR! My Achilles Tendon is acting up again. Anybody have a spare one I could borrow? You know, it would be nice to painlessly walk and stand, y'know?

[lawchicky.livejournal.com]

I had a dream where I got to stay in bed late this morning and rest, and then it came true!!! Snuggling with the baby now and playing on my phone. I'm not looking forward to work later today, but it's a closing that I've already done all of tge prep work on, so it shouldn't be too hard as long as no one is trying to pull a fast one.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Crossing my fingers that there are no shenanigans for you today!!!

[dizzy-writing.livejournal.com]

I went to bed early, and had a nightmare that the GR was posted and had almost 300 entries before I woke up.

AAH!!! It's real! *cries*

Looks like I have a lot of reading to do during work breaks today :) My company doesn't take a holiday today, but I can work from home which at least saves me the commute time each way and I can use one computer for work stuff and another for tracking LJ Idol :D

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

LOL. You don't have to catch up on what you missed. We just got carried away!

[hammaboo.livejournal.com]

Coke introduced me to his brother Coke Zero a while back and we fell into a mad, mad love. So much so that he accompanies me most places, far more than my real life husband does.

"Dream a little dream of me...."

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

But have you ever hooked up with Coke Zero's smokin' hot cousin... Cherry Coke Zero? That's my current love affair. :-p

[momebie.livejournal.com]

I wish I could have some of these inappropriate sexy time dreams everyone is talking about up top. All of my inappropriate dreams are about me being killed in new and creative ways. Stupid brain.

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

Ugh, yeah, having dreams about being killed doesn't sound like fun at all :/

[phoenixejc.livejournal.com]

I dreamed of not having to work like a emeffing work horse today, but alas, the dream was fleeting....on a positive work note, a project I have invested about 16 months into is supposed to actually come to fruition tomorrow. IF that actually happens, I will be dead of the shock.

:)

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

I hope it does come to fruition!

[amazingwriter23.livejournal.com]

Sounds rather mundane, but I'm having a sofa and living room carpet cleaned today. With 5 kitties, it's a necessity of life sometimes.
There was a homicide in my community last night. I don't have any deets as to why, but my kids and I do know who. Two girls lost their mom. The Mothership even knows their Mothership, who was living with them. So tragic.

Also been working on connecting w long lost cousins via FB.


The Mothership is progressing in rehab. Very slow recovery. The MRSA issue was a prob we are beating, but the antibiotics are harsh.
