That's what lucids are for! (but I agree. I'd much prefer to be a jedi in real life, not just dreams and video games.)

Yeah, things are only so amazing when you know they're not happening in real life, no matter how real they feel. I like non-lucidity. Or rather, believing that it's real, whether it is or not. (But of course, still being in control. Ain't life a bitch?) It would be fun to be a jedi. I just kind of want to twist reality to experience an infinite number of random situations that come to mind for the rest of eternity, or at least for as long as I'm bored. *sigh*

Though, I suppose, for all I know, that could be what's going on right now.

I'm finding it more and more likely, tbh.

If that is the case, then at least we've got a twisted sense of humor about it. I wonder what we'll think of next.

Its 11:27pm and I'm hungry.

This game may just be one of those things that comes and goes that's supposed to help you, but it's pretty intriguing. I've seen things KIND OF like it before, but not quite in the way that they approach it. It's a self-help planner that's in the form of an adventure game, with quests, bad-guys, power-ups, etc.

This TED talk talks all about it; I'll let her rant to you!

Thankyou so much for this Preserver!

Hungry, or bored? There's a serious difference! You may feel that you need food, only because you always eat when you have nothing to do! Happens to me all the time.

"hug: OldSparta. WOW! What an absolutely horrible day. I'm very glad you cousin's okay!

Preserver, I sympathize completely. My bedroom is extremely cluttered, but clean. I *should* clean the bathroom more than once a day/every other day because that's bunny's domain and it's amazing how much he potties everywhere
BUT, the main part of the house is as you describe because my oldest boy is an absolute slob. He lives in the living room and there are soda bottles everywhere

My rant is that either my allergies are superbly irritated OR I'm coming down with a nasty cold. The lymph nodes in my neck are a little swollen. The Post Nasal Drip has gotten no better, but my nose is stuffed up, my throat is sore and my eyes are dry and itchy.
As I drove to the store a few minutes earlier, it felt as if the corner of my eye was scratched (would explain the dried blood). When I got home, I looked at my eye with a little pen light and the corner where my tear ducts are are inflamed and blotchy/red. The inside of my lower eyelid is as well.
I told hubby and he said it could be pink eye. Great. It's likely just allergies though. He gave me some steroid eye drops which will help either way.

Blah... lol

Probably not. I did have an early dinner which was kind of light, but I also live eating late at night. Unfortunately I don't have any food.

I'm watching The Fountain now and crying. Love is pain and right now I just want to die. I cannot express this feeling. It is overwhelming. It is pure beauty.

There are notice boards in the major cities with "call to arms" quest that leads you to appropriate levelling zones. The quests in cata are quite good, I seem to recall.
About the dungeon, that particular instance is a level 80 instance if I recall ('The Oculus' or something?). When you enter the portal thing and defeat a boss, representatives for each of the dragon people appear in the room. Just talk to them to get a dragon. It's customary for DPS to take a red dragon, healer to take the green dragon and tanks to take the brown dragon I think, and then you use them for the last fight. Just be quick about getting a dragon, and keep up with the other people and you'll be fine. (I went through exactly the same experience first time I was there, and a friend of mine had to explain to me what was happening).
But just ask people if there's something you don't get. They're mostly nice people. I think.

Thank you greatly for the explanation. I wish I had known before, since the vendor was right there and I could have gotten the dragon, but I will know next time.

Aw, that was a sad story.

Are you implying that our difficult life is an illusion created by us? Let's not go on this topic again before I go insane.

Need to get an injection tomorrow. Diphtheria booster. I knew this for quite a while now and it only just occurred to me that I HATE NEEDLES!

All the pain in the world doesn't seem so bad if we're really just trying to entertain our collective self. Nothing wrong with a little masochism.

I'll stop now.

I'm not talking about pain. I'm talking about everything we see now is an illusion. You're an online friend made up by my mind. Nothing's real.

I saw the last post made by ThePieMan and when I checked again, the name had changed. Fortunately, your avatar is still the same.

Or maybe you're an online friend made up by my mind, or we're each random people made up my someone else. However, if this "illusion" is the only reality, does that not make it real? It only takes one person actually being "everything" for us to all be a piece of everything as well. We're all part of the same fantasy, we just don't remember it yet.

What is reality?

You've been reading too much Nietzche.

Really? I think you would enjoy his work.
