Another day, another dream - this one was about mathowie and quonsar.
→[More:]I lived in California, and so did quonsar. I decided to have a meetup at my apartment, which was infested with frogs, as all apartments in California tend to be. So I invited mathowie and quonsar over. Quonsar was dressed in a waistcoat and long jacket, sort of like the dad in Mary Poppins. He was a fantastic conversationalist, and kept making me laugh. He also keep spinning and dancing and pirouetting around my ginormous living room, which had hardwood floors, which were luckily not covered with frogs.
Mathowie was very shy, almost anti-social, and basically only spoke in one-word sentences. He zeroed in on my computer, and spent the entire evening sitting at it, working on metafilter. He would only speak if we asked him something.
At one point it became evident that I worked for mathowie in some capacity, because I decided during the course of the meetup that I would move to NY, the very next day. I announced this to mathowie.
"Mathowie, I have to quit. I'm really sorry to spring it on you like this, but I'm moving to NYC tomorrow", I said.
"Gnnnughhh", answered mathowie. It was more like a grunt, really, but of course I could tell he was positively devastated at the news...heartbroken to be losing such a fine employee.
I went into the kitchen, which was about 8o feet long and only about 8 feet wide, to get some snacks. I tripped over some frogs, which naturally were just milling about, the way that frogs tend to do. I fell to the floor, and the frogs all jumped over to me and started getting entangled in my long hair. I screamed for mathowie to come and help me, but he didn't budge...I think he was working on a jrun error. Quonsar ran into the kitchen and pulled me up and picked all of the frogs out of my hair.
At this point, I forced myself to wake up, because I was getting angry in the dream...hee. And it was sort of troubling - bad vibes. The frogs were creeping me out.
I didn't make any of this up. A psychologist would have a field day with this one, especially since my other dream about mathowie (which I posted at metatalk last year and can't find) was about him coming to my rescue and helping me change a flat tire.
