Dream Log: May 9, 2000

- / +


The dream was very fragmented, probably because I woke up several times during the night. Here are at least some of the pieces put together in a chronological (?) order:

• It was a few days before my birthday. (which is this saturday, btw.) My friend, whose b-day is on the day before mine, was organizing a big party for both of us in Helsinki. I was really excited about this.
• I found myself walking in downtown Helsinki, apparently searching for the party place. I think I was lost.
• Suddenly I was in some popular holiday destination next to the Mediterranean Sea. I was swimming in the sea, feeling pretty upset at all the leaves and other trash floating around. I wondered where all that came from, since no trees could even be found near the beach! A very annoying tour guide was swimming along, talking about surfing without a pause. I tried asking her about the stuff floating on the water, but did not get a response.
• Back at my parents' house, I was looking outside from the kitchen window. I wondered why the sky was all black during a sunny day. Mom said it was just another of those old Russian planes flying by. Then I noticed that the sky hadn't darkened, but was covered in black smoke. I ran outside and saw a bright red WW1-style aeroplane flying towards north really low, emitting that thick smoke.
• After the plane had passed, I started playing soccer with my sister on the lawn.

I was standing outside my parents house and there was this ball of flame high up in the sky (no, not the sun).

The ball turned out to be an UFO and it crashed into the hills not far from our house.

As I stod and watched a creature cloaked in shadows came towards me.

It turned out it was one of my friends wanting to borrow a movie.

I didn't have the movie he wanted at home, and he became very upset and said he was going to blast my school with his spaceship.

Then I wokeup and had to go to school. Bit of a disappointment down really.

Some terrorists had hijacked a -- well, a flying subway train, probably meant to lift passengers up to a hotel at the first Clarke orbit. Naturally, they'd taken the passengers hostage.

So a squadron of jets -- they looked like jets, I dunno what actually propelled them -- took care of the problem like this:

• The first pilot heroically rammed the jet (oh! maybe it was a ramjet?) through the entire subway train. The wings broke off, but the nose section had enough structural integrity to continue breaking through the doors between each car of the train.
• The next six pilots flew sideways through the aisle and dropped remote-trigger bombs.
• When the planes were clear, they triggered the bombs so as to turn the entire subway train into a gigantic cannon.

And, yes, the homoerotic imagery is obvious to me too, thank you Sigmund.

As a result of the series of explosions -- sorry about that, hostages, but we had a job to do! -- the head cheese of the terrorists was literally blown into orbit. Only it was an odd orbit around an object shaped like a piece of twisty pasta that had been formed into a circle. The guy spent the rest of eternity orbiting *through* the object, like one of those electronic things with the wire wrapped around the toroid thingy. I think it was actually the moon in some weird shape. It'd have to have had enough mass for this guy to keep orbiting through it, wouldn't it?

What are you looking at me like that for? Yes, elf needs Valkyrie badly, but... oh piss off.

No visuals, no plot. Just the smell of sleeping with yam.
