This is why I was rushing out the door this morning

[trinityvixen]

I dreamt that my babiest of sisters was on America's Next Top Model. She was in the top four, about to take her picture for some other or another challenge. Her hair was straightened and dyed black with thick streaks of yellow, pulled up in a pony tail in the back with strands framing her face. (Semi-conscious me couldn't believe that my sister would look good like that; dream-me was amazed at how beautiful--and different--she looked.)

I don't know why I was allowed there, but I was visiting the set and hitting up the craft services table when I ran into one of the other girls who, despite the fact that these shows film way ahead of broadcast, I'd been following and who I thought was a right cunt. I made the mistake of telling her this to her face. Which kinda made emotional trouble for my sister. I spent the rest of the photo shoot worrying that I'd killed her chances of being the winner--what if she was too bothered to do well?--because I'd shot off my mouth. She'd never get her chance to be the next CoverGirl model! (OMG I have watched too much of this show. Dream-me was dying to see baby sis get to say "I'm America's next top model!"

I woke up to strange, repetitious blaring noises, probably from my dream, and I had to just make it stop so I punched some button on the alarm. It never came back on again. I luckily woke in time to get up and run to work.

I dreamt of puppies. Shocking, since I spent the half hour before bed watching the puppy cam. So I dreamt of puppies and...baby porcupines, oddly.

And corpse-sniffing dogs, but I'm sure that's not related.

Is this puppy cam on all the time? Are they constantly frolicking? Don't they need to sleep?

Puppy cam? Sounds awesome! Is there a kitten cam, too?

This was a very entertaining dream to read. I enjoy seeing how different people dream, and am especially fascinated by the different ways people dream of their siblings (having had dreams of my sister fighting off dark forces and being in supernatural peril last night, I have sisters on the brain today)

The puppy cam is on most of the time. And clearly you don't know how cute puppies are when they're sleeping.

When they're not being interesting, there are stored videos from their earlier puppyhood. (Scroll down) Hours of entertainment, I'm telling you.

I only know about the puppy cam. Really, more animal breeders should set up web cams of their baby animals. They'd never have a problem selling them ever again.

Dude, you think that's bad? Once I read that they'd picked a "plus size" model as the winner last season, I dreamed that *I* was on this show. I'VE NEVER EVEN SEEN IT! IT WAS HORRIFIC! I spent the entire time trying to explain that there was no way I'd signed up for this shit, but they kept flying me to weird places for photoshoots that I refused to look at because I photograph horrifically irl.

I think I'll refrain. I like my free time, and it's preciously limited as is.

I saw that--it's weird how we view people we know in our dreams, isn't it? Especially when you haven't thought of the person in question any time recently or anything. Why do these things come up? Dunno. Crazy subconscious!

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, I've been there (http://trinityvixen.livejournal.com/570446.html), but ANTM is way more horrifying a prospect. Because I'm pretty sure I'd ninja-kick Tyra Banks' face off.

Especially now that I've seen this bullshit:

Or, let's try that again:

Haha, I have heard stories of how psychotic she is. I would snap her in half like a twig.

[trinityvixen.livejournal.com]

Seriously, if I weren't a chicken, I'd probably kill her. Then again, she has only to pull half the crazy shit she usually does on me before I'd probably suffer a psychotic break by osmosis. In which case, I wouldn't, legally, be held accountable for kicking her teeth in so far that "vagina dentata" wouldn't be a myth...

I was wondering why I didn't hear your alarm. If you had taken much longer I was going to knock to make sure you were alive.

Grrrraaargh, it was hard to get up without it and also simultaneously impossible to sleep through until I was actually late because I was half panicked about sleeping too late. Not doing that again!
