Can you say Visual Stimulation?

No, not that kind of visual stimulation!! I don't know whether it was something I ate or just the subconscious downloading after the busy holidays, but man, did I have some wicked, crazy dreams last night.

One of them was I was in this big metal box with two autographed, very rare, Gibson guitars and was being wheeled around the backstage area of some arena. My job was to make sure the guitars didn't bang together. The guy pushing me around in the big metal box was a bit of a crazy ass and thought it would be fun to drive the box around like it was a race car. I kept having to manoeuver the guitars so they wouldn't hit various lights and mic stands and speakers. I woke up right when one of the light kegs came loose from the overhead rails and was falling, right toward me and the guitars...

Then, I was in a high school, looking for someone or something, and I had this big thing cradled in my arms (I think it was a stick, may have been a machine gun) and kept bumping into all these locker doors. It was sort of like they were opening as I was walking down the hall and I kept walking into them. I turned a corner and got whacked in the head with a smaller locker door that I didn't see and it spun me around. Behind me was one of my co-workers and there was a look of shock on his face. He pointed to my ear and then turned and ran. I dropped the big thing I was carrying and felt my ear. My earlobe was missing. The hook of my earring, complete with earlobe attached, was stuck in my glove and I knew I had to get it on ice if there was any chance of reconnecting it. I went to the cafeteria and they wanted me to try the lunch and I didn't want to, I just wanted some ice, but they wouldn't give me any if I didn't try the lunch! I finally said "give me the lunch" and had some of the Quiche Lorraine (don't ask where that meal came from...I don't know!) and they gave me this little tiny cup of ice which melted as soon as I put my earlobe into it. I was getting all stressed and frantic when I woke up.

Yeah, so I spent a little time on the xBox, can you tell? Guitar Hero and Need For Speed fuelled the first one is my guess. Oh, and by the way, I suck at both. I'll admit it. I do. The boys had to leave the room in complete and utter disgust when, after who knows how many times I tried, I still couldn't get past Slow Ride. On easy. And wouldn't relinquish the guitar! It was a good time! I finally gave up because I was fairly certain I wouldn't be able to move the fingers on my left hand if I didn't. The driving game? Uhmmm, apparently if you are a good driver, you shouldn't play car racing games. You'll just lose.

I'm not sure if the second one had anything to do with the stealth game that #2 and his buddy played all afternoon, but yeah, chances are good it did.

But I was very pleased to see when I woke up this morning that my ears are intact and I'm not missing an earlobe.

I think I'll tackle Kung Fu Panda today, see how I do in that one!

And I can't wait to see what kind of dreams I'll have tonight!
