The Chronicles of a Raving Lunatic

I'm going to start off with something good.

A couple nights ago I had a strange dream. I was in what appeared to be a motor home with a bunch of people, some of whom were ST Reboot cast members. We were rehearsing what had to have been a scene from the sequel. We arrived at some building where we were helping with the writing/characterizations for the sequel. It was a school, I think. We had lockers in the hall and there were school desks in the room we were in. Everyone was sharing desks because there were only a few. In fact, I was sharing with Zachary Quinto and I-can't-remember-who. We were all talking about scenes or characters while one of the writers, or maybe it was J.J., stood there just taking it all in. I was squeezed onto the end of our desk until I realized the desk in front of us was free, so I moved there and turned around to continue my conversation with ZQ & Whomever. The really strange thing was I couldn't figure out who I was supposed to be. During our rehearsal in the motor home I specifically remember being called "Number One". But then, when we were in the room, I got the distinct feeling that I was supposed to be Spock. Which was part of the reason I was working with ZQ. But I was still female. The best I can figure is I was part of a weird mirror/alternate universe where Spock was a woman and Kirk called her "Number One", like the original first officer in "The Cage". I'm still puzzled. But I will FREAK OUT if the any of the Reboot sequels has a mirror/AU at all like that.

And OMG, the wank. Seriously. Why do some people have to take a perfectly nice community and ruin it with their wank? A mod should NOT act like that. You're a Moderator, not a Dictator. You're there to moderate. No one was harming anyone. A quiet, kind word would have gotten a better effect that your rude demands.

On a related note, I am now the maintainer/co-mod of a new community: conan_unrated. You know, I actually like being a mod. maybe it's because the two places I mod are fun. And Conan related. :)

Had my second shot of methotrexate on Tuesday. No side effects, which is good, but also no results yet. Of course, I didn't expect any yet. The Dr. is keeping me on the steroids until the MTX starts showing some results. He said it would be a while. Especially since I'm starting on only 6.25mg. Now, I just need to remind dad to go pick up the rest of my Rx. Been off it for a bit b/c he lost his medical expense card and didn't have the cash. He just got his replacement card the other day. From most accounts, it looks like you commonly see results in the first 12 weeks, so...

Also had to get some antibiotics b/c my toe is infected again.

Ugh. I've been trying to avoid it, but i think I may have to give in. Especially after the last couple days. I think I may have to start using a cane. man, the other day in the store... I actually had to use one of those electric carts. I've tried to avoid those since the pain started. Plus before that for about a week, anytime I was in the store I could only go a couple aisles before hurting so bad I had to stop and sit on a bench or lean on something.

OH. And my 10 year High School reunion tonight. Only a couple people have said they will be there, but some are trying. I guess I'll have to see tonight. Only problem is, it's at a local cafe/bar and I have no money for drinks. I can't drink alcohol on the MTX, but I'll need some pop at least. I need to come up with maybe $5. Even at that expensive place, that should be enough for a couple pops. I'll ask dad, I guess. I wish Neal would just give me the $15-$20 he owes me.

Night before last, I had a weird dream. I worked at Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital. Well, Cuddy had triplets, but they were...liquid... I totally don't know, but the "liquid" babies looked weird. Almost like egg whites with little bits in it that started collecting and then other stuff started showing up and started turning into a baby. Well, two of them developed into babies, the other didn't. I was given the task of telling her. I kept wondering why I had to tell her and not Cameron, as she'd be better at that sort of thing. I was floundering, trying to figure out a way to tell her. Well, House keeps telling me to just say it, but I wanted to be nice about it. Well, I finally decided that I was going to have to tell her, so I went to her room. House came in while I was trying to find my words and just blurted it out. Like, "One of your babies didn't form." Everything was all quiet while she and I stared at him. A few other things happened, but nothing real significant, or "House" related. or weird. Just me calling someone and walking over there from the hospital.

Only got a couple more books read for my little challenge. But I had to wait a while to go pick up my books and got most of the way through that Poe collection. About 3/4 done.

I think there was more I wanted to say, but I can't remember what it was. I have to go take a shower soon so I can get ready to go to my reunion anyway. I didn't bring all my clothes, so I'm gonna have to go home and get dressed first.

So, last night I had my first Stephen Colbert dream. It didn't start out that way, but he eventually did show up.

It started out that I was with a group of people next to this really deep, like 6 ft or so, ditch. Someone told us all to doggy-paddle to the other side. This other girl and I didn't want to for some reason and one of the guys who was already pulling himself up on the other side said something like, "You're just afraid because you're a girl." I told him about 'swimming' in the ditch when we were kids and jumped in.

Next thing I know I'm at someone's house. There was some large gathering of people, like a family re-union or something. I was in the kitchen and kind of trying to figure something out when I turned around and Corie was there. It wasn't her family's get together and I don't think either one of us could figure out why we were there. But we both decided to hang out since we were there and the family seemed to expect that we would be. For some reason I went through the house and wound up in a bedroom. That's when Stephen showed up. Apparently it was his room. Anyway, he had this little Stephen talking doll thing. Like, you'd flip the head and it would say things from The Colbert Report. It was kind of cool. He just sat down on the bed and talked to me/us for a little bit.

Then I was in the kitchen again doing something. I wandered back to Stephen's room again. I grabbed the doll off the shelf and for some reason went over to the bed and lay down on the bed. I was lying there playing with it next to me when Stephen came in. He wasn't mad or anything, though I seemed a bit afraid he would be. He didn't even say anything at first, just had a little smile and walked over to the bed. He lay down next to me and put his head on my chest (read:BOOBS) and reached over me and started playing with the doll. He started talking to me in this soft voice. I don't remember what he was saying, I was too focused on him lying on my chest and his arm draped over me. My whole body started trembling and my right hand started to tingle. I even remember telling him that my hand was tingling. He just smiled at me. Any time his head would move from talking or his arm would move from flipping the head of the doll I would jerk ever so slightly. (even though it was a dream, I could feel my body actually doing it.) I was getting all hot and bothered. Like, for real.

Anyway, next thing I know I'm back in the kitchen and people are starting to file outside to get their meat off the grill and to eat. I told someone their uncle was headed out. Then I went to man a table. Apparently some of us, including Corie and me, were manning some tables before we ate. I took my place at my table with the plates and napkins. Stephen was at a table across the room from me. He kept looking over, smiling and waving in this really dorky, cute way. There was this counter thing telling how much of everything was left on what tables. When Stephen's got really low, I decided I had to go get whatever he had, so I grabbed a plate and headed over there. He looked all nervous by the time I got over there. He had yet another Stephen doll with a flippy head, but this one didn't talk. When you flipped the head open there were these little compartments. He had toothpicks with different meats and cheeses on them. I chuckled at them and grabbed one of each. Then I was waking up.

But, yeah. It was a pretty hot dream. I woke up still kind of shakey from it. But why is it something in a dream will get me all turned on and then nothing happens? Either it jumps to something else or I start waking up. I can only remember ever having two real 'sex dreams'. The first was Conan. Still the hottest dream I'v ever had. The other was a Viggo dream that I only remember little flashes of. I want a good sex dream that I can remember. :(

So, I had an interesting dream last night...
( *cue Twilight Zone music* )

I have no idea.

Note to yaoi_chan: Jealous much? ^_^

I just had myself a very nice House dream.

Okay, so a friend (not 100% sure who) and I were roomates in a house with House. I know, House wouldn't have roomates. But he did. And it was us two chicks. *shrugs* Anyway, we were all sitting around the living room talking. Nameless friend was sitting on a couch and House and I were both sitting on the floor. Well, in the course of our convo, I mentioned that my neck had been hurting. House tells me to 'come here', so I go over and he has me lay my head in his lap. Then he slides his hand in the top of my shirt and across my chest and presses a spot near my colarbone and asks if my chest hurts. I tell him no, it's fine. He gets that look, you know, where he doesn't want to admit that his orriginal idea was wrong, and asks me something else. I tell him that it's fine, doesn't hurt even a bit. So he takes out his hand and has me start to sit up. When I do, I get this sharp pain in the side of my neck. I tell him that it's something with the muscles or something on the left side of my neck. He gets that, 'who here is the doctor?' look which changes into that, 'well, of course it is, you moron' look. So he puts his hand on my neck.

And then it's suddenly later and I'm making out with House, focusing around that wonderful stubble and neck. And that's where it ends.

Yay to my first House dream!

Before anything else, I'd like to wish a (somewhat late) Happy Birthday to Ranger.

Been a long boring week. Though, I have read three books this week. Two just yesterday alone. Over Tuesday and Wednesday (as I mentioned in the last post) I read The Turn of the Screw by Henry James. When I opened it I realized that I was supposed to have read it in H.S. as there were notes about the story written, by me, on the front page. I guess I skipped it b/c as I read it, I certainly didn't remember it. But then, I did that with a lot of our books in English, just listened really well in class and used that stuff for the tests.

Wednesday late, I had started to re-read Star Trek: The New Voyages 2. It's a collection of short stories (a few poems/other things) written by ST fans. It's from, like, 1977 or something, so it deals only with TOS, but it's a GREAT read for any TOS fan. If you can find it, read it. The story "The Procrustean Petard" is especially interesting.
Anyway, I had only read the intro to the first story and the first couple pages before I had to stop.

Thursday I spent the day with Dad. Was gonna help him with some of his work, but he ended up not doing it. He has to wait until tomorrow. But I did help him get a rough estimate for a gutter cover job. So he should be doing that sometime in the next couple weeks. YAY!

Yesterday I spent all day reading. Finished New Voyages 2 and also read all of The Bridge of San Luis Rey by Thornton Wilder. Not bad. Nice short book. Not too involved, but you do get to know the charachters. Next I plan to read Dubliners by James Joyce. When I dug it out, I found that I had already read the first piece in it (bookmark was at the second piece), but since I don't rememeber it, I'm going to start all over again.

Spent all day today (b/4 getting online at about 5:30) watching Star Trek TOS. Funny, last night I had a TOS dream. Don't really remember much of it. All I remember is that I was on the bridge and I heard Kirk say something about Corbomite. At first, today, I thought it was about the epi "The Corbomite Maneuver", but when that epi came on today, I realized that I had clearly seen Checkov sitting at Navigation and he wasn't a part of the crew of The Enterprise yet during that epi. I also remember there being some discussion of trying to maneuver out of firing range of some other ship, so maybe seeing that TCM was going to be on the night before, my brain decided to make it a physical strategic maneuver. I just wish I could remember the rest of it.

I want another ST dream. Or maybe a M*A*S*H dream. That would be nice.

( and onto the quizzes... )

Okay, so Corie sent me vibes to have a nice sexy dream with Viggo, Conan, Johnny Depp or Orli last night. And Dianna sent me vibes to have a nice sexy Viggo dream. So who sent me the vibes that gave me last night's dream that I ACTUALLY had?? O_o

( Strange dream )

So, who sent me that dream?? *looks around suspiciously*
