Yes, yes, before you start bugging me, I know the webcam’s not working properly. For some reason, it’s stopped uploading the thumbnail images correctly, all I keep getting there is a shitload of temporary files, and no thumbnails. And I can’t determine if it’s a problem with my server, or the software I’m using to upload them. Grrrrrrr. I hate problems like that, I really do.

Still, I’m in a better mood than I was yesterday, I’ve finally had a good sleep under my belt, and a weird dream to boot. I love my dreams, they just don’t make any sense at all…

I dreamt I was at work, when I suddenly realised I could solve the world hunger problem, using two kitkats, and RealPlayer…

Owen was with me, so off we went down to the chocolate machine. I said to him “Think you can eat two chunky Kit-kats?”. He said he could. So, I got the choccy out of the machine, and we went back upstairs. When we got there, I put a webcam in front of him, started recording, and he proceeded to eat the kitkats. Now my thinking at this point (remember, this is a dream) is if I transfer the video file I recorded with the webcam to lots of computers, then each kit-kat would become edible, thus solving the hunger problem - everyone could live off kit-kats! My bubble burst shortly after, when Maria, another team leader (god, I hate that phrase) pointed out to me, “How are you going to unwrap them?”

And, then, I woke up……

So that was weird dream #1. After that, I got up, and went downstairs to set the video for Knightmare. Imagine my horror, when I switched on the light in the front room, and ended up with a disco show….. yes, the cicrcly fluorescent tube in the front room has decided to go south…

I hate it when that happens - it always takes me back to my childhood, and being the most scared I’ve ever been about anything…. there I was, a little 3-year old, playing with a mini snooker table in the front room. I started to lob the snooker cue up in the air. I remember my mother saying “Stop that, you’ll break something”… well, I didn’t give it a second thought, and continued to lob the cue in the air. Next thing I know, there was a loud bang, with the room in darkness, and glass everywhere. I screamed my fucking head off… I remember looking up, and knowing the remainder of the bulb, hanging down, with the ends of the tube glowing orange… at that point, I thought the house was going to burn down. Ever since then I’ve had a strange fear of fluorescent lamps when they start to die. I’ll be the first to admit I’m a weirdo.

Went back to bed after that, and proceeded to have another weird dream… Well, not exactly weird, but I dreamt about how much I want a girlfriend, and how much I’m sick of being on my own, while watching someone climb up to the top of the lamp post outside our house, and cling on for dear life. So, my idea on getting a GF in this dream? Going to church. No, honestly. Unfortunately, this dream didn’t get much further than that, so I have no idea if that would have worked…
