Actually its more a recurring end to dreams.
The beginning of the dream could be anything, it is always completely different. But eventually, I come to a ladder, and I have to climb it. I might have climbed the ladder earlier in the dream or I might not have seen it yet. It is a simple ladder, one sided, the type you might lean against a wall or a tree. I am completely alone, and I must climb this ladder, maybe to get onto a roof or, in the case of last nights dream, through a hatchway in cliff face. So I climb this ladder, its all fine on the way up, but then when I get to the top, I get worried. I am too scarred to take my hands off the ladder to open the hatchway, or climb onto the roof edge, or whatever the scenario might be. I carefully let go of the ladder with one hand and slowly stretch it out, only to pull it back at the last minute because I thought I felt the ladder wobble. This action is repeated for a while, and then, to my horror, I feel it. The ladder starts slowly to fall back, at first its only slight, I think I must be imagining it, but I still grip the ladder tighter, then after a few seconds of questioning panic, I am sure of it. I feel the ladder fall back, I feel myself falling, I can feel it in every part of my bod,y slowly at first then accelerating, faster and faster as I grip the ladder tighter to my chest, Falling faster and faster.
And then, I wake up.

Now, by all accounts, this should be a nightmare, this should be horrifying… But its not. The first couple of times it was, sure. But I have had my dreams end this way 8 or so times in my life, and I have grown to enjoy the falling sensation, I know there is nothing I can do, nothing to stop myself falling, so I let it happen, and I enjoy it. Last night however, there was something new. The ladder was taller than it has ever been before, about 15 meters. and when I was about 10 meters up, A girl had started to climb up aswell. By the time I reached the top she were getting close, and by the time I realised the ladder was going to fall, she had caught up. And then the ladder fell back, I gripped the it tight to my chest, feeling the falling sensation all through my body, I let myself enjoy it. But as we both fell, I could hear the horrified screams of the girl below me, all the way to the ground.
And then, I woke up.

I have always believed that some dreams reflect whats going on in your subconscious. Recurring ones even more so. But I’m not going to interpret any of this dream because I don’t think there is any way I could ever properly understand it, and I don’t much see the point in trying. But it is rather curious none the less.

I don’t upgrade this blog nearly as much as I should… like… AT ALL. I do upgrade many other sites though… I thought it was about time I explained myself. and linked to all those other sites here! So if you do want to stalk me and are dissapointed with my lack of blog posts, I will post a few widgets from those sites here so even if it is once again, a while untill I post again, The widgets will have up-to-date information! and you will be abe to stalk me properly.

(by the way I know this is a total cop out and I really should try and update my blog more regularly… and I will! Just not today… I am watching black books with Angie)

LastFM! keep up to date on the music I listen to! and laugh at my unusual and terrible taste in tunes!

Next comes twitter which you should all know I have… this is regularly updated with nice little bite-sized chunks of information about what I am doing! (excuse the random box… dunno why that’s there…)

DAILY BOOTH! which I update far from daily… Fail Rob… Fail.

Rob says:

evening miss

Min says:

hello darling, borneo i’m guessing?

Rob says:

no its rob

Rob says:

but I can try and teach borneo to use msn is you wish?

Min says:

ahahaha you crack me up.

Min says:

that would be amazing

Rob says:

I have already taught it how to use facebook

Rob says:

It made a fan page for it self

Rob says:

*hopes there is a fan group for borneo to back up that claim*

Min says:

lol it’s a faster learner then?

Rob says:

reasonably fast

Rob says:

it hasn’t learnt much about personal hygene though

Rob says:

smells a little.

Min says:

by time you leave it’ll be a field of roses etc

Min says:

i’m expecting this

Rob says:

um…

Rob says:

well first you have to get rid of the openm sewrage system

Rob says:

that will take a lot longer than the amount of time I am here for

Rob says:

sadly

Min says:

captain planet could do something about that

Rob says:

yes he could

Rob says:

ahh, captian planet, brings back memories…

Rob says:

which ring would you have had?

Min says:

fire or wind they were the coolest, no one wanted water

Rob says:

or heart

Rob says:

I mean wtf… He couldn’t do anything

Min says:

heart was so crap they had to give him a monkey to compensate

Rob says:

seriously, heart could do NOTHING but help so summojhn captian planet

Min says:

lol he’d calm the animals down if something pissed them off

Min says:

but it did nothing for humans. thats just crap.

Rob says:

and those kids annoyed me, whenever things got a littlew tough it was all “oh no this is to dangerous, we should summon captian planet, it doesnt’t matter that we have magical rings and super poweers, we will just get someone else to do the work”

Rob says:

pfft

Rob says:

lazy

Min says:

so true! i mean i can think of a hundred things fire could’ve been used for!

Rob says:

I know!

Rob says:

and water! he could have coated his ring in some detergewnt and just cleaned up all the grime everywhere!

Rob says:

but no its just

“oooh summon captian planet, Im going to go water the garden with my ring!”

Rob says:

(lol, inuendo)

Min says:

lol! water just didn’t apply herself

Min says:

i love that Linka came from the soviet union then after it collapsed they changed it to ‘eastern europe’

Rob says:

hahahaha, really?

Rob says:

xD

Rob says:

I never really remember the names or details

Rob says:

just that it was a cool show

Rob says:

and the kids where lazy

Rob says:

lol, the backpacklers we are staying at has 6 residnet cats

Min says:

lol i loved that show, i wanted linka and wheeler to hook up as badly as the pink and red power rangers

Rob says:

(2 of which have hitler moustaches)

Min says:

6 you say and will you photograph and caption them?

Min says:

now you have no choice

Rob says:

and one has been playing with this straw for the past 3 hours, haha

Rob says:

I have no camera…

Rob says:

www.catsthatlooklikehitler.com

Min says:

mental picture will have to do

Min says:

BAHAHAHA

Min says:

this site is win

Min says:

I feel for the first time in my life that I have no sense of humour: no cat deserves any connection with Hitler. (am not Jewish, but would quite like to be, but I do really like cats)

- Alison

Rob says:

hahahaha

Rob says:

lameo

Rob says:

 the site pwns

Min says:

i must obtain one of these cats

Rob says:

 I know, I want one too

Min says:

and then i will teach it to be evil  which i hear cats take to very well

Rob says:

 

Rob says:

will it attempot to take over the world?

Min says:

doesn’t everything at some point in the world?

Rob says:

…true

Rob says:

but will it hunt jews?  coz that would be mildly innapropriate

Min says:

oh no, moar like trolls

Min says:

my sources say they aren’t very useful

Rob says:

ooooOOoooo

Rob says:

killing trols could work

Rob says:

or mayube killing heebee jeebee’s

Rob says:

my mum would always warn me about those

Min says:

they are teh scary

Rob says:

I never ever saw one… but I was bloody scared of them

Min says:

lol bigfoot kept me up at night

Rob says:

 how dare he/she/it/fi

Min says:

i’d imagine him stepping over the oceans to get to my house, because really what else was he meant to do with his time but come looking for me

Rob says:

he was helping hitler cat huint heebee jeebees

Min says:

ahhhh it all fits together

Rob says:

mmhm

Rob says:

just like a jigsaw that you are expecting to be missing a piece but then discover that with a bit of cutting and hacking you can make it all fit anyway

Rob says:

and then you find the spare piece on the floor under the dresser in the dining room

Min says:

those were the best kinds of jigsaws, the diy type

Rob says:

and as you pick it up you bang your head on the cupboard and break a ming vase that was left to you by your grand mother

Rob says:

and you feel really awefull and wonder why you started the jigsaw in the first place and fronm that point on in your life you have an irational fear that every time you do a jigsaw something valuable to you will be lost

Min says:

if the next sentence doesn’t involve a midget i’m going to send hitler cat to borneo

Rob says:

ok, that metaphore got slightly out of hand…

Min says:

he’s in the mail.

Rob says:

ok, that metaphore got slightly out opf a midgets hand*

Rob says:

but you get the general idea

Min says:

that metaphor should be taught to the children you will interact with

Rob says:

it should…

Rob says:

but ti wont be…

Rob says:

instead it will be blogged!

Rob says:

maybe…

Rob says:

but where to start copyinbg from…

Min says:

hmmm, toss a mental coin

Rob says:

heads

Rob says:

shit… that doesn’t help

Rob says:

how about I hjust copy everything, hmm?
