Knifing mutant dogs is more exciting than acquiring shorter hair.

Usually I don't recall my dreams but in the last couple of weeks they have been quite graphic. One was about being in a near fatal car wreck which wasn't too bad as I survived. Another involved a dog that lunged straight for my throat, ripped through the jugular and I had a vivid impression of slipping away into unconsciousness.
I have no idea what brought them on or what they are meant to symbolise, if anything, but they weren't nice by any means!

Certainly no argument there. But I'd rather dream about getting a haircut than getting someone smokes.

Y'know, CovJr, haircuts aren't *always* boring. There's that whole thing Samson & Delilah thing... ;)

Last night, I dreamed that I was walking in the bowels of some public building. Finally I found myself in a hallway where there was nobody else, except a woman from our HR department at work, who I passed. I said to her, "So there must be a way out ahead, since you're coming from that way?" and she said, "Yes, there is." So I kept walking. I made a left turn into a doorway with this weird, accordion-pleated metal gate, then went through another, similar gate, looking for the stairs. And then the alarm went off.

So I'm mucking about in my sub-subconscious, I guess. No idea why. :?

You, my friend, are at times inscrutable. But zombies don't scare me so much. When I have nightmares, I am always being chased, or falling. :?

Willow: Xander, this isn't zombies.
Anya: And zombies don't eat brains anyway, unless instructed to by their zombie master. A lot of people get that wrong.

:P :P

Don't tell me you're not looking forward to the post-apocalyptic survival horror that will be the eventual zombie outbreak?

Zombies don't scare me. . . I figure I can always outwit them. . . and probably outrun them too. ;)

That's no fun! You have to be sporting about this. Think of the Zombie Horde's feelings.

Oh. . . well, if it's that important to you, I'll pretend to be afraid of zombies. :D

Actually, it was Kermit in the Blender that couldn't get no relief.

Meh. . . I choose not to believe in new zombies. Therefore I am not scared of them. I tend to be afraid of more abstract things. . . at least in my dreams.

The tentacle content is actually surprisingly low in most stories.

Actually, it's not the tentacle count one must worry about.

It's the starfish count.

Oh, that, and if it's amorphous, run. Or don't. It doesn't matter much.
