... No brain power to think about this. Maybe I'll come back.
I was watching Nip/Tuck with a group of people, and we were watching the son, Matt (played by the delicious, yet nutritious John Hensley) do a bunch of serial killing. It started with him accidentally killing someone (ala Cara Fitzgerald), and dumping her body into this acid pit, he'd found. Then When he was out dating this girl, his father told him to be careful with the car, and nearly immediately, he broadsided someone and the driver of the other car flew through the passenger's side window. He dumped the body in the pit, and had the window fixed. Then he was killing someone regularly for any reason at all. Finally he was about to be caught by these four guys who saw him dragging a body off the highway.
Then we watched the Slasher storyline develop and they'd actually trapped The Slasher, and shot him. His mask came off an he was perfectly ordinary looking guy, but out of his mouth issued forth a large wormlike thing that went off looking for another host, and we knew that the Slasher had been possessed by the alien worm thing. The alien worm thing then infested an aligator, and much conversation ensued about how to keep away from the aligator and what to do, how to trap it, capture it, kill it, whatever. I was of the opinion they should freeze it.
So then we're in this classroom like setting and my dad says, "When's the next episode?"
"That was the season ending cliffhanger. It should start back up in 2 weeks."
"Okay, then, we should TiVo it."
"Dad, we've been TiVoing Nip/Tuck for all three seasons it's been on."
"Good."
I was at my parents house in front of the TV, working on customizing my new Red Sox icon, when I navigated to the web page and noted that one of our marketing dudes was listed as the contact for the book that would contain the English versions of these Korean cartoons. I heard him talking to Coworker6 in the other room, so I walked around and went to ask him about it.
I rudely interrupted him and he explained that yes, the book would be out in a few months, and yes, there would be English translations, and then they continued talking.
I noticed for the first time that there was a door from the room they were in to the one I was in (which probably explains why I was able to hear them) and so I walked back into the room hosting my office (TV). Noah was standing around by my work, so I dropped off the paper I was holding then headed straight off to my bedroom. He called after me, but I pretended not to hear him, until I was halfway upstairs and didn't think I could get away with ignoring him anymore.
"Did you want me?" I asked.
"Yes." he said, sounding annoyed, "I want to know where you are on the book you're working on."
I came down the stairs and he moved up the stairs explaining that he'd paused to talk to me at my office, but now he was going somewhere else.
"It's just about ready."
"Then send it out for review, so you have time to get comments."
"I will." I promised. Then I woke up.
There was third dream, but I don't remember it now.
I found the song I was looking for. (as in the aforementioned purchased the wrong song. The song I'm actually looking for is "Boeey" (Come) by Idan Raichel off the album The Idan Raichel Project.
Look out world. Here comes I!
