On an unrelated note, what should I change my name to now? Preferably something containing Lhikevikk, though I will not accept any variations on the name itself.
(Also, how do I mark all comment in my blog as "read"?)
EDIT: Apparently wishing for something makes it happen. Huh. (iwishihadaponyandapotofgoldandsomeicecreamandashinynewcarandalasergunandaspaceshipandatoenailclippingand...)
I had my first real lucid dream last night. It was WEIRD. I don't remember all of it, unfortunately, (even lucid dreams have that problem), but there are some rather interesting highlights. I think it started with me standing on a balcony in a school, looking down on a basketball game (or some similar sport, I don't think what I saw exists as any sort of real sport), and then I think, "Wait, what? Why am I in a school? I've been homeschooled my whole life... oh gosh, I'm dreaming. This is a lucid dream!"
And then I jump off the balcony, miss the ground, and start flying. Then I remember that suddenly trying to do something really exciting in a lucid dream will usually wake you up, and then I wake up. Then I think, "Darn, I woke up, I wish I could fall back asleep and resume the dream." So I do exactly that and continue flying. (In retrospect, I suspect that may have been a false awakening. I did not feel the the usual fatigue that one feels when awakening directly from REM sleep.) After that, random stuff happens (I can't remember exactly what) and then I find a supply closet, imagine that it leads outside, walk through it and escape from the school. Faced with two guards, I look for a weapon, find none, so I reach into my pocket and imagine a laser gun, which materialized in my hand. I fire at the guards and kill them. Then I felt sorry for killing the guards, so I rewind the dream to back when they they were alive (this was by far one of the weirdest parts), but they shoot at me so I kill them again. Afterwards, a friend of mine follows me outside and tries to convince me to return. I try explaining to him that he's in a dream and that he's only an imaginary copy of someone I know IRL. He only believes after I show him my watch, which keeps showing random letters and numbers each time I look at it. (This is a good way of achieving lucidity in a dream, FYI.) More random stuff happens and then I jump out of a skyscraper, float in mid-air for a while, get bored for a while and decide to wake up and resume the dream some other night.
Since other members have exercised their abilities within the blog rules and posted entries about who they would support for U.S. President, I thought I would do the same.
And then decided against it.
I kinda like being mysterious and keeping my political views secret, eh?
But really, it's also because I haven't finished putting together a hypothetical Cabinet for my favoured President/Vice President team. When I do, I'll post the whole group I support (maybe). I can tell you one name, though -- Vermin Supreme is on this list, and not as a joke. I really do support him for a particular position.
I think this might be the first time I change it on a whim without planning it in advance. I changed it about one minute after I read Burnmad's suggestion.
As the result of the sudden outbreak of irrational fears among the Empire's subjects, Lhikevikk, have been temporarily released from the the Emperor's dungeon to serve as the Imperial Penguin Therapist. I am here to deal with your phobias and hopefully make them better (or worse, since I can make more money that way). I can also treat any other psychological issues you may be dealing with. Don't be afraid to ask for assistance!
DISCLAIMER: I'm just having some fun here okay please don't interpret this as legitimate psychological advice I'd probably severely worsen your conditions if you did that so don't try it okay
Hey, Angel Bob? Who's the one with a dangerous sig NOW?
(Yes, I know you replaced your Weeping Angel banners with Makuta Hunt banners long time ago. And yes, I know most people won't understand the joke. But for those who do... oh boy. XD)
Complete with 30 days of pretending to e my evil mirror counterpart, a la Star Trek's "Mirror, Mirror" and various sequels, Doctor Who's "Inferno" or , of course, Bionicle's "Dark Mirror"?
Also, does every sci-fi franchise do a mirror story at some point? It seems like it.
