Gosh, I miss Buffy

[annathepiper]

So in the interests of making myself less braindead at work, I have endeavored to a) go to bed earlier, and b) get up a little later. This has gotten me back closer to eight hours of downtime, which is more conducive to coherent Annas. It also hasn't sucked that there's a fireplace in the bedroom to make it cozier upon the arrival of sleeptime, even if I have yet to actually think of 'turning on the fire' without snickering.

Anyway, this means also that I have been sleeping better. I still haven't managed to sleep a night through in a while without waking up a couple of times and peering groggily at the clock, but at least I've had more time for spells of actual sleep.

So I've had more time for dreaming. This morning, I remember, I was dreaming some sort of weird cross between reality, Buffy, and Angel. It was set in a building that I'm fairly sure was based on the hotel in Angel, though it looked kind of more like an abandoned school than an abandoned hotel. I am not sure if I was supposed to be myself or Buffy or a cross between, but I distinctly remember being there in the sense of 'myself participating in the dream' rather than 'myself observing the action'. And I don't remember seeing Buffy as a separate entity.

Plenty of angsty Spike, though, and something about villains trying to take over the building.

And, as I am sure will amuse him greatly, spazzkat smooched Willow.

Can I smooch Willow in your dreams tonight? :-)

Gods, what I wouldn't give for a fireplace in the bedroom, especially one that was easy.

BORED NOW.

I'd smooch her too.

Relax. So long as "turn on the fireplace" doesn't mean flicking on one of those DVDs with the flames, you're good!

what I wouldn't do for a fireplace- period.... FIIIIIIIIRE!!!! OOOOOOOOOOH NEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAATTT!!!!! ::singe::

I figured you'd get a kick outta that.

Dude, if I had any actual say over which media figures show up in my dreams when, it'd be the Russell Crowe and Alan Doyle Show from the moment my head hits the pillow to the moment the alarm clock goes off. But I'll see what I can do. ;)

It IS pretty nifty, I have to admit. So was having a fireplace in our bedroom at MurkSouth. :)

Fortunately, we do not keep DVDs in the bedroom. And I've got some pretty crappy movies on DVD, but I'm not likely to pitch any of them into a fireplace any time soon, gas or otherwise. ;)

Unless you're speaking of some mysterious other meaning of "DVD" of which I am not currently aware...?

Unfortunately--or perhaps fortunately, for I am unsure of spazzkat's preferences in this regard--the Willow that showed up in my dreams was not Evil Vampy Willow, or Evil Black-Eyed Witchy Willow. It was Sweet Red-headed Schoolgirl Willow!

Nothing wrong with that, of course.

[poodlgrl.livejournal.com]

Well, it was a joke. About those Christmas DVD's which just have 3 hours of a flickering fire.

[annathepiper]

*giggles* Oh, okay. I don't think I knew such things existed. :) No wonder I didn't get it.
