Because we need to replicate all old threads that I want to post on when they aren't there.

Last night I dreamt I was watching some crappy gameshow on the telly, I can't remember what it was, maybe Deal or No Deal. Anyway, they cut to the audience and there was a guy sitting in the dark and you couldn't see his face, all you could see was his Carter USM 30-Something t-shirt. I turned to husband and said "haha, only [grimly fiendish's real name] would wear a t-shirt like that on national telly" then the lights came on and it *was* grimly fiendish. Then Stet arrived to sit next to him, and climbed over him to get to his seat, clutching a big box of popcorn. Except he didn't realise that the lights were on and the camera was on him and the host was talking to grimly.

And then I woke up.

(I have never seem grimly in a Carter t-shirt, though I bet he's owned one)

i haven't, actually. although i adored carter's music (and still do), i never quite bought into the aesthetic. i'd be the tit in a grey shirt and tie, looking like peter hook circa 1982, dancing like a loon to "sheriff fatman" and getting funny looks from all the cooler kids.

what was the host saying? was it my big chance to WIN GRATE PRIZES and MEET NOEL EDMONDS? either way, i sincerely hope that greedy guzzler stet shared some of his popcorn.

I once went to a Carter gig (Livingston Forum, 1992) in baggy shorts. It was a week shy of my 20th birthday. I AM THE BIGGEST TWUNT IN THE UNIVERSE!

that was curiously unsatisfying. being a mod is shit.

i tried deleting that other message, ailsa, but something obviously went wrong :)

NB anyone else reading this: i'm not a proper mod, and will not be doing any proper modding. just using my limited sandbox-related powers to annoy ailsa.

I dreamed about Neverwinter Nights 2 last night. Unfortunately, I woke up just as I was casting Polymorph Self, which was a shame, as I didn't get to experience what it would be like to be an Umber Hulk. Big shame!

two weeks pass...
Last night I dreamt (separately) that my brother and my boyfriend died. The first about my brother was more vivid and I remember seeing him in his coffin and putting in a cap I just bought him for xmas. The second, about my boyfriend, I was talking to a minister or something about how I couldn't believe he was gone and what was I going to do without him to joke around with and take care of the dogs.

Neither dream was scary or overtly sad. More fond and bewildered.

I was wondering if there was a sandbox dream thread, so thanks for finding it!

Last night I dreamed about ILX! LIke, it was BACK UP!!! I logged on, saw a new Watercooler thread, clicked on it, and found myself walking into a hotel room, with Andrew lying on a sofa, just chilling out. (I knew it was Andrew coz he was shirtless.) And the Watercooler thread was a giant hamburger sitting out on a plate for me to eat. I had to sniff it to make sure it was veggie, but it was.

And then all these other ILX posters came back in, and we were all discussing what Olympian gods we were. (I was Athena for some reason.) And there was gossip that Aphrodite (a well known ILX girl who shall not be named) was cheating on her ILX boyfriend Hephastus (sp) with someone and there was all this crazy gossip trying to find out who - I think Matt DC knew but would not tell me. (How unlike real life.)

God it was bizarre.

I dreamt at the weekend that I was in some glamorous New York location at a big society function (possibly a wedding) but I didn't know anyone there except Emma Bunton (?). Then I saw Laurel and Ben but they didn't recognise me (this person that I knew was Laurel looked nothing like her, btw). I was in a taxi going round some wee condensed toytown version of New York (I have never been in New York, but I do know that the Brooklyn Bridge doesn't appear suddenly out of nowhere in the middle of a couple of skyscrapers and it's not only about twenty foot long) and I had no idea how I had got to New York, why I was there or where I was staying and how to get back there.

It was very odd.

three years pass...

i had this very long and convoluted dream about all the sandboxers last night, but the only bit i really remember is that jergins was driving a mini submarine near the beach. it was really old school looking, like it was made out of old tractor parts, and it was literally a MINI sub - it was about 6' x 3'.

i blame the sub dream on L O S T.

one year passes...

Had a dream that hamsters were crawling on our kitchen floor and my brother put them in the sink and poured boiling water over them, and no matter what I did I couldn't stop him. :(
