Random downloading pays off... I finally gave a random song a chance, and David Mead's World of a King turns out to be...awesome? groovy? I can't find a pleasing descriptor. Fabulous? Smurfy?
FYA (for your amusement):
The blog of a girl who hates me for no good reason. At least it gives me some fodder to not like her back.

Three things: Last night's freaky dreams:
1) Sad dream where I got really upset because I was suddenly a ghost and only a few people could see me.
2) Really angry dream where I had just gotten married and was thanking every one at my reception when someone told me the groom wasn't going to come. I found him and yelled at him (How could a marriage last SIX minutes?!? You bastard!), and then I realized that I couldn't get upset, because I had to act cool for the guests and then pay for the stupid wedding. When I woke up, I realized I would definitely have sued that jerk because his reason for leaving was that he was fooling around with another girl.
3) Scary Sci-fi dream where my group of scientists accidentally released mutated creatures that went into the ocean and were going to come back and eat everyone. Then while we were waiting and watching for the creatures, some Nazis came to arrest a lot of people, including me, and we had to hide.

Okay, not good. I'm feeling just a little emotional.... a Mutual of Omaha commercial just brought me to the verge of tears. So did the Discovery Channel Cat special... This reminds me of the morning I was brought to sobs over a Moby video with the cute little aliens that get ignored. What is up with me?!? This would be the perfect day to try to get me to send money to starving children.
