The Mayans were just counting down to the Hobbit movie---

It's snowing, which Felix finds utterly fascinating to watch; however, he is very mistrustful about that new white carpet, and doesn't dare touch it or step on it.
Yesterday, he met Supermarket Santa Clause, of whom he was also mistrustful, turning away and going "nah!". Before grabbing the tangerine Santy was offering. :P

This night, I had the weirdest dream I remember having had in a long time. It was like, a postmodern Valar apocalypse thriller movie directed by Terry Pratchett or something. Actually pretty cool, but seriously, seriously weird. I got pulled into the whole weirdness thing because a) we were having dinner in Postmodern Vairë's Restaurant or something and my dead uncle was there, too, and nobody seemed to find that strange at all; and b) I stole a fleece from Postmodern Yavanna's cows. (They were like Galloways. Would you shear Galloways? Look, I don't know, I only dreamt that shit.) Then I kind of took part in a Postmodern Valarin music hall show which would've been cool if I hadn't known at that point who they were and what powers they had. I also knew I had to do something to prevent the postmodern Valar apocalypse, but beats me what that was. Oh, also, Nessa was like Delirium from the Sandman graphic novels? I think she was on my side. Ah, subconscious, what are you doing.

Gotta shovel snow. Back laters!

Manchmal wünscht man sich wirklich, man könnte seine Träume irgendwie aufzeichnen und später mit dem Projektor an die Wand werfen. :D

Allerdings. XD

LOL. Your dreams should give you a lot of plotbunnies! Not sure what you'd do with the subplot about stealing a cow's fleece, but you never know when it could come useful! :o)

Supermarket Santa Clauses are dodgy. Their fake beards are usually rubbish and give them away. My orclings were very quick to realise they couldn't be the real deal.

ETA - I love the title of your post! We get about a week of dwarvish squee before the sky falls over our heads, assuming we can go to the cinema during the first week of showing...

Indeed!

I've actually been meaning to write a Valar Apocalypse fic centered on the whole "12/12/21" thing (that's what inspired the subject line XD). It was meant to allude to a whole lot of 2012 events, which are all over now, and the incredible surprising ending in which the United People Of The Earth* told the Valar and all the other Ragnarökr-happy deities to go f*ck off and let their earth continue. (Fëanor would have managed to get back to Earth thanks to the incredibly Fëanorian combination of Olympic Oath and Olympic Flame - after stealing Eärendil's Silmaril during this June's Venus transit.) SO CLEVER. :P
-- I guess it isn't too surprising that a brain that would come up with that while awake, would come up with the above dream while asleep. :P

This Supermarket Santa actually had a real bushy beard! But Felix just doesn't immediately trust people he doesn't know, period. Which is as it should be, of course!

Sounds like a great dream, hah!

Aww, Felix watching the falling snow.

I love that icon!!!

He also admired the falling leaves a coupla weeks back. Stuff twirling through the air is just fascinating. He didn't like it when we went outside and the snow fell in his face, though. He didn't authorise that! ;)

I haven't used it in a looong time, but just now it felt appropriate! :D

Cool! And I thought I was having some unusual dreams. Thanks!
