Before I forget it...

...I dreamt last night that I was trying to corral my nephew (in my dream ~ 8 years old) at the Worlds Fair and he kept running off so I didn't really have a chance to examine any of the exhibits up close.

I *do* remember passing by the India Pavilion, and for some reason there was a swordfighting performance in progress involving two men (one in a Victorian British Navy outfit and the other dressed like Ali Baba) fighting with about eight attackers. When they were on the verge of being overwhelmed Ali Baba gave a whistle and from offstage left about 200 *monkeys* attacked. The first wave was made up of baboons who charged on in like fullbacks, but it was the swarm of spider monkeys who made, sweartogod, 30-foot leaps onto the faces of the bad guys who really stole the show.

I will note that each monkey was in a miniature British Navy outfit.

I never did catch up with my nephew.

OMGZ I dreamt about you last night-if you have a spooky Uncle and he leaves you a house-DO NOT offer to go in and clean it out without a flamethrower, holy water and a big supply of hand sanitizer.
Oh and your dream was cool, too.. :)

Navy monkeys! Almost as good as pumpkin chinchillas.

In other news, congrats! Someone on my LJ nominated you as one of their Very Favorite People to read on LiveJournal. I have no idea who that may have been...

*ahem*

Please excuse the interruption, but...just wanted to let you know that someone thinks your LJ is fascinating & has recommended you to countless strangers, so if you start getting randomly friended, that would be why! (Blame one of your anonymous friends...!)
