mid-dream

We go to a party and it's one we've been going to every year, and I know what to expect, but this time they let me have the adult portion. However, it takes so long to prepare that the rest of my party go on ahead and I can't find them. But I do find one of them, by which time I've misplaced that portion (some sort of dumpling, and some vegetables and a little bottle of sake). We get to talking, and I go:

Me: Can we stop by the [word for meat]? I'm getting hungry.

Him: Sure. *starts telling me about the various options*

Me: But I don't have the plate. I lost it somewhere.

Him: [don't remember] *starts loading up on a white bag*

Me: I don't have anything to put it on.

Him: *sort of ignoring me still* Is there something traditional to do if you lose it?

Me: Like calling on spirits or forgoing the rest of the meal?

At which point he turns on me with the knife. Specifically, he presses it into my shoulder until it cuts through the skin and then waves it around my face and throat, asking me if I want to be kicked out, and if I think Soviet Russia will treat me any better than he is.

At which point I wake up, because I've gotten good at that.

I HATE nightmares. I really, really hate them. My father would never do that to me.

Dammit, why can't I remember some good dreams for once?

carry it on

Tonight seems to be a night for memes.

Yoinked from dogmatix_san:

Justice and Morality: You believe in doing what is
right for others and maybe even for yourself.
People would consider you one with good morals,
and someone who would not let them down.

From hime1999:

I got %100 percent correct, which just proves that I DO read my friends page. In fact, I think it's the most frequently hit of my favorites.

And from both hime1999 and stickmarionette:

A-- go to my fics and pick out a line or two from one of my stories.
B-- I will respond with which story I think it's from.
C-- points and a drabble to anyone who stumps me!

All of them (excepting a very few really olllllllld ones from the start of this journal) are at srevan.
