I had a terrifying and horrible dream last night that had two parts:
Part One:
Pullapartgirl, Jeff-PTTL and I were wandering around this huge indoor festival in a convention center that was also full of caves and cold, dank places to sit. We were waiting for a surprise show that we had been invited to that would include Guided By Voices and Steve Malkmus' new "Band of Plants." We waited and waited and no one ever showed up, so we left. This part was sort of long and boring.

Part Two:
I went home and I was there relaxing on the couch with my hubs and one of our dogs and for some reason Jeff was still there. He was talking in the bathroon when there was a loud knock on the door and 6 people walked in, male and female, and they announced that they were going to kill us. There was a Christmas movie playing on TV that featured singing pieces of asparagus. Jeff suggested I take a butcher knife and slit the throats of our would-be assailants, so I killed them all, one by one. When we had about 6 dead bodies on the floor Jeff said "Well, I better go -- see you guys later" and we had a huge argument about whether or not it was his idea to kill the people and whether or not he owed it to us to help us clean up the mess. The asparagus started singing again and I woke up.

If I hadn't had to wake up at 5.45am this morning to pick Sgs up from the airport I'd never have remembered this one, but it was a gem. Essentially, it involved Ken C as a filmic hero type who, in a climactic showdown scenario, was battling two evil villains on a basketball court, both of whom were in wheelchairs and whose heads were each no bigger than a small grapefruit.

I spotted Lauren P. at some impromptu Kings of Convenience concert in an auditorium. Actually, it may not have been Kings of Convenience but similar: two Scandinavian dudes with acoustic guitars. I didn't say hi to her, just noted that she was there.

I was going through Boston, so I stopped in to see Ned Raggett. (It's a dream.) He tried to sell me some CDRs, calling them "Test Pressings"... But then I did ask if he had any LPs he was trying to sell off .. he did, but they were mostly horrible, except for a 2LP version of Solid Gold which I didn't even bother to look at to see what was on disc 2. But he coerced me into buying a Los Lobos record called "The Sun" and a fIREHOSE CD that I already own. Together, they were $10. I opened up my wallet and he snatched two fives out .. and then he took out a twenty and said, "I'll get you change for this" .. He changed it for $6 and a bunch of cookies. Individually wrapped, Little Debbie cookies - presumably valued at $1 each. I asked for a bag to put the cookies in. At first he gave me a ziplock freezer bag, but then as I started loading it with cookies, I noticed that it was actually an old sofa pillow with the stuffing taken out.

Seemed like it took forever to get out of that place. Do not visit Ned at his Boston home.

last night i was involved in a scene from grand theft auto. i was in a parking lot and stole a 85 monte carlo and was driving like a maniac to get away from the cops. in the passenger seat suddenly appeared Dan and he was frantic screaming out "kill the children". We made a quick turn into Umass Hospital parking lot and I ran out of the car and decided to hide in the hospital where i could blend in with all the people. the cops were right on my tail with the owner of the monte carlo in tow. i ducked into a booth and peeked my head out and suddenly Pleasant Plains spotted me and explained that I had stolen his monte carlo. I pleaded with him to let me free and he was beginning to soften up his stance and told me he wouldn't press charges against me. Alas, i decided he was lying and grabbed him by this huge beard he had and swung him into a bathroom stall and proceeded to kick him in the face. i woke up.

I dreamed about Ken, again.

Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 7 November 2005 15:47 (eighteen years ago) link

i also dreamed about ken.

which is interesting, because i've never actually met him.

anyway: he was sitting by the side of the road in a souped-up renault 4, with an american bloke in the passenger seat who i recognised as an ILX0r (fuck knows who it was, though).

i told him i thought his car was topp; he said he hated it. i tried to tell him how you could take all the bodywork panels off and service it yourself, but i woke up before i could finish.

Last night I had a dream where I convinced charlotte church (don’t even fancy her) to snog me.
We were hiding behind some building and I convinced her that there was no paparazzi around. We have the snog and we hear a click coming from some bushes. She then flips out and says that it’s gonna be in the papers tomorrow and her boyfriend is gonna flip and kill me… alarm goes off.

Dan Perry was in my dream last night, though I didn't see him -- he spoke to me through the tinted rear window of a white SUV, slowly following me as I walked down the sidewalk on my street.

At one point, the window rolled down a bit and Dan handed me an envelope that contained something very important, but I don't remember what it was now -- some information that was vaguely sexual, I think, but also esoteric & mystical.

Charlotte church is an ilx0r???!?!1/1//1//1?!?

i had a micro-ilx dream last night. all that happened was, I wrote a sentence that didn't make sense. Somebody replied "Let's all hate Ste, he is NOT ONE OF FOUR"

smallest dream ever!

I had a dream I yelled at Alex in NYC at some instore type thing.

Was there pistol-whipping involved perchance?

Charlotte church is an ilx0r???!?!1/1//1//1?!?

i can't say for sure!

didn't realise it had to be about ILXors, thought it was general.

Last night I dreamed about ILX itself: it suddenly gained a feature called 'evolution' that let you save drafts of posts.

drafts? who has time? my important words must be hurled to the masses without haste!

i've never had an ilx dream though i've had an internet dream:
1ce dreamt my exgf sent out an email to a number of people asking what their favorite mirah song was, followed a few minutes later inviting people to a mirah listening party at this random fraternity at my school. ws all a bit weird to be honest and the worst part was when i woke up it was one of those dreams where youre not quite sure if it was real or a dream so as you can imagine i was rather quick to check my email

Last night I dreamt that Onimo turned up at my house extremely drunk with two hospitality tickets for some crap Second Division football match that I had no interest in going to and insisted he'd got them specially because he knew I wanted to go. He seemed so pleased with himself. Thing was, I'd been discussing with my husband how it looked like the worst match ever and why would anyone want to go, then Onimo just sort of materialised in my living room, I hadn't let him in or anything. What was especially weird was that I could actually *smell* the alcohol - I've had dreams that have translated into real life (waking up crying, phone ringing in dream = phone ringing in real life etc) but I've never noticed a *smell* manifesting itself in dreamworld.

k so today i take a 2 hour nap and magically have a really intense dream involving Zurich (hipinioner and sometime ilxer). basically he gets shot outside one of the dorms here, and i have to go inside to get something to save him. but while i'm inside finding it he comes in and says he's fine. but once we're inside it's not our house, or a dorm, but some random house inside which some huge party is going on. somehow my nose gets broken, it's all flat and bruised and it hurts when i touch it

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ANY OF THIS MEANS

i don't really remember

Argh, argh, argh! last night, I dreamed about snogging the same ILX0r as up there. I'm starting to get disturbed by this.

The rest of it was pretty standard stress dream, stuff, being naked in public, that kind of thing, but with the added extra stress nightmare of the BEING PHOTOGRAPHED kind. Bah, rub.

Was it me, Kate?

Markelby (Mark C), Friday, 25 November 2005 13:38 (eighteen years ago) link

No, sorry.

Sophisticated Boom Boom (kate), Friday, 25 November 2005 13:40 (eighteen years ago) link

Actually, I've just realised through re-reading the thread that I've had dream snogs and/or sex with ILX0rs four times now. One was with hstencil, one was with someone who can't stand me - who I now cannot remember who it was - and the other two were about the same person.

Sophisticated Boom Boom (kate), Friday, 25 November 2005 13:41 (eighteen years ago) link

i'll dream about you to make up for it, M-by

Sailor Kitten (g-kit), Friday, 25 November 2005 13:41 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh wait, no, I *DO* remember who it was. Bwah hah hah hah hah. That was bizarre.

Last night I dreamt that Onimo turned up at my house extremely drunk with two hospitality tickets for some crap Second Division football match

Ooh, I've been dreamt about! I must be getting close to circle jerk meta thread acceptance.

The weird thing is the only football match I'm ever likely to get freebie hospitality* tickets for is a crap 2nd division match as my several people I know are Morton shareholders and I occasionally drink with a bloke who might be a supporter's rep on the board..

What booze did I smell of?

*a pie and a can ay Tennents Lager

Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 25 November 2005 13:52 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh hang on. Annoying drunken asshole tries to make you do things you don't want to do.

Dream analysis eh? Load of shit if you ask me haha.

last night i dreamt that i was at a hockey game. (i often dream about hockey.) it was at an outdoor rink and the pittsburgh penguins were playing the montreal canadiens. the penguins were wearing blue sweaters, which they haven't done in 25 years. the rink was enormous, and the teams were playing like 11 a side.

the canadiens were absolutely killing the penguins, not least because bob from that 70's show was the pens' starting center. then i realized that ken c (whom i too have never met) was playing defense for the canadiens. after the game i went to the restroom and found ken washing up. i said, "hi ken! what's up with chu?" he didn't know i was an ilxor and we stared at each other uncomfortably until the piped-in music changed to the first song off that arcade fire record. and then i woke up.

i dreamt that i had agreed to marry an ilxor. then i was playing some gameshow with a wheel of fortune type word puzzle (a puzzle i didn't solve, which is driving me nuts) but it was inside an apt building, and somehow i had to go outside the building and ended up trapped on this spike-like protusion where i couldn't get back to the window and instead had to drop to the ground - which hurt my feet. by the time i got back, everyone had gone home. now i'm having coffee.

This was a few weeks ago but I had a dream that I was sitting in a bar with Jon Williams, stealing his smokes every time he turned his head. Then he got really agitated and we had to go start a verbal fight with Iron Chef Morimoto because Jon believed he was Carlos D. :( I don't know why I had this dream and I couldn't go back to sleep afterwards.

Roy Keane was texting me last night in my dream by way of starting new threads in ilx, it was his birthday and as he was opening his presents he was telling me what he thought about them.

I remember his rather rattled but amused response to opening a gift to reveal 'googlemaps', "What fucking use is this to anybody?!" he snorted.

I had a Lost/ILX crossover dream!

I was going to a fap somewhere in London, but I wasn't sure where it was. Then I met Hurley, he was also on the way to the FAP, and lost too. We ended up looking at heavy metal t-shirts...we never got to the FAP. Ned sent me some pictures over an internet connection, along with the jist of the evenings conversations. One was about Jel and the American Finances. I drew some pictures and sent them back to Ned.

Kim, I've got news you might find disturbing.
Part of your dream has already happened!!!

I like when things like band names come to me in dreams.

Right before I woke up today: PUP BASEMENT, which was #14 on Custos's top 20 this year. Although someone immediately said "Wait, is that even a real band?"

I had a disturbing dream last night where an ilxor threw himself out a window and splattered all over a car like in the bad action movies. The person is normally very affable so I was shocked he would do something like that.

I met Trife last night! He was very nice, but also very wired - sort of a Hunter S. Thompson type thing. I remember being very intimidated by him. We were driving in his car (which was crappy, falling apart at the seams) at breakneck speeds.

We discussed german frozen food company Dr.Oetker's, and "Popular" (the FT feature, not the tv show.)In this dream it was *him*, not Tom Ewing, doing the project - and I gotta admit, "Simon Trife reviews every UK#1 from 1952 to the present" would be awesome.

two weeks pass...
eugh, a rubbish one over christmas. i dreamed i was at warp for a meeting about shimura curves because they were thinking of signing them, but the warp hq was this weird corporate monolith place where everyone wore suits and everything was very spartan. the meeting wasn't with steve, it was with a japanese guy in a suit. we sat opposite each other across a small table in a small room with one wall made entirely of window. my chair was a normal office chair except when i looked down it was on a pole which stretched a hundred metres down into a white-lit pit, but there was a see-through floor at normal floor-height relative to me, so it wasn't like i was going to fall. i was increasingly uncomfortable in this situation and the guy was explaining - quite curtly, like a teacher talking to a five-year-old who's done something wrong - that warp really wasn't the right place and i really wouldn't want them to be signed to them, and saying "do you see? do you? and do you agree?" a lot. i mumbled something about knowing what he meant and got up to leave, and he said he'd give me five minutes to think about it anyway. i went to the toilets and the belgian was there and she was wearing the same skirt as me. we agreed it wasn't a good place. i went back to the meeting room and the guy was still there and ned was in the chair i'd been sitting in, then when the guy saw me he pulled a lever that pulled the floor out from under the chair and tipped the chair forward so ned fell off and fell a hundred metres. they said they'd done it to prove this wasn't the sort of organisation i wanted to be involved with, but when i said i'd already realised that and there wasn't any need to start killing my friends to prove it, he just shrugged. then they took the belgian and me outside and we were in a massive dark carpark that stretched for miles in every direction and we couldn't work out how to get home.

I was in a weird house in Finland. Some dude was showing me round, I think he was actually Tuomas' brother - he took me through the secret entrance to Tuomas' room - it materialized! There was a fish tank in there, and we fed the fish - they turned into lizards and got out, and had a fight, my cat was sitting on a chair and ran off. There was a locked door in the room and an old bike.

Later, I was looking through the house, and you could just walk in on the people next door. I said something like "it's so communal here!". I enquired about house prices in Finland - £24,000 apparently!

jel -- (jel), Thursday, 5 January 2006 11:03 (eighteen years ago) link

Haha, I've never read this thread before, but the two dreams about me sound totally accurate. Except that I don't have a brother.

But your fish do keep turning into lizards?
