one of them was named after a woman as well. "beatrice", maybe?

i had a dream this morning where i was reading about someone recounting a relationship with tom baker. he had six conditions for being in a relationship with him. the first two were "marriage" (as in, he wanted to get married). the last two were about his genitals (he skipped the middle two conditions for some reason). "You have to love this cock." you also had to call his penis and balls by their proper names. one of them was named mark after mark strickson. i didn't find out which, though.

lizbee also read this article/book excerpt/what have you. we both agreed that it was entirely plausible, although we wondered, "why mark strickson...?" i'd like to say i decided i didn't really want to know, but actually it was just that i woke up.

CAN'T. STOP. LAUGHING. (And it really is a disturbingly plausible scenario.)

i'm not convinced the dream wasn't some kind of premonition detailing the contents of an upcoming issue of DWM.

...or the Tom Baker audios the BBC is putting out...

i feel like paul magrs would go to the effort to put an extra layer of weird onto something like that. like, they all have names and you have to repeat them in the right order or a pan-dimensional gate is opened during sex and you fall into an alternate world where everyone talks backwards.

AWESOME. And I'd believe it.

[prof-pangaea.livejournal.com]

it's kind of tame in comparison to some of the stuff i've seen him say in interviews and his book, so... yeah.

Apparently I'm in EVERYONE'S dreams at the moment. *uses powers for good instead of evil*

[prof-pangaea.livejournal.com]

you know, some people might think that causing others to have dreams about tom baker's man bits would be using your powers for evil. obviously i am not one of those people, though.

I dreamed that spoilers came out revealing that Moffat had cast the surviving actors from B5 in an epic DW episode. At least you didn't wake to a sense of crushing disappointment and the sad knowledge that your dreams are not prophetic.

ONLY BECAUSE THIS PARTICULAR DREAM HAPPENED TO BE TRUUUUUUE

What I really love about this is that you're READING about this relationship in the dream and chatting with someone else who read about it too--it's a dream of fandom...

Unrelated: I know I have a message pending from you--things have been so very insane that I've had no time to properly respond but know that I will soon.

i've also had dreams about arguing with racists on the anonmeme. i prefered the dream about tom baker's penis.

re:unrelated: that's cool. goodness knows i'm not always the most punctual correspondent myself. you're not obligated to repond anyway, so don't feel compelled or anything.
