I had a dream I killed people the other day. I only remember now because last night I had a dream about Battlestar Galactica in which people were in imminent danger of being killed by human-resembling Cylons (I know, what the F? Cylons look like us now? Hello, Trinity, what are you smoking?). Anyway, in the me-centric dream, I was starting to freak out because, in a circle of about twelve people, my friends were the only ones living and were telling me that, yeah, I was pretty much boned.

My only hope was that I hadn't gone to jail the last time, and maybe they'd see this in the same way. Yes, apparently in this dream, I'd killed someone before and gotten away with it. I wonder if my subconscious is trying to tell me something.

The BSG dream freaked the crap out of me because the usual suspects (seemed mostly to be the fugitives, President Roslyn, Apollo, Starbuck, a few anonymous marines/pilots, and for no reason I can fathom, Dualla) were on top of a building being approached by human-resembling Cylons and I was sorta watching it happen as me in the dream (but not part of it) because I was trying to ignore what the characters were saying so I could see what the other models looked like. I even counted off in my head how many new ones were being shown--there were at least three completely different males (so not the tour guide, Leoben, or Simon), and I think one female, but I can't remember. I know Six was about in at least a couple of copies, and one of the new males looked like Danny Bonaduce only younger and with longer hair, mullet-style complete with receding hairline (my first insinct was to laugh at how the Cylons were smart enough to make even a hick-Cylon). I was outside the show enough to cross off the numbers and realize that didn't leave many we hadn't seen, which wasn't smart of the creators, if they wanted to keep the suspense going.

At the end, they were rescued in a Raptor, with Dualla on the phone making sure everyone else (I guess there were other isolated groups) got off okay. In the middle of search lights and wind from the Raptor's flight, she asked the person on the other end if everyone would survive. The scene cut to Simon, the Doctor-Cylon, telling her they would as if he were unhappy about it. It was very dramatic, and the inference was not that she was threatening but bargaining with him.

I was crushed in my dream. I was crushed. D can't be a Cylon! Poor Billy. He's taking more hits than the Chief at this point. But but but D can't be a Cylon! I'll be really upset if she is. Upset, I tell you!
