|…you’re in the middle of a dream at night at you think, “Oooh, I should write about this!” I heard this recently from someone else, and last night I did that myself.
I woke up inspired and smiling. What a great story this’ll be! Then my eyes narrowed as I thought through the dream Mr. Sandman had delivered. Hmm. Maybe it wouldn’t be quite as interesting as I thought. 
Perhaps people won’t find it fascinating that a group stranded at a gothic, scenic overlook of a dry ocean in El Paso was about to be annihilated by a massive surge of icebergs. Funny how things seem different in the light of day.
But I can’t help but hope that tonight I’ll get new material. Perhaps I should seal the deal by having pumpkin pancakes for supper. They always give me odd dreams. Has anyone else found food that always gives them strange dreams?
Speaking of supper, soon I’ll post some thoughts based on the most recent poll. Grab your fork and knife.

Mmmm is right.

Not very mmmm if I have to dream about El Paso. Wait! Did you say that El Paso was about to be annihilated? Bring on the pumpkin pancakes!

LOL!

I’d eat a whole pumpkin if it visited disaster on… Wait, that’s not very Christian of me. Who am I to judge if a town is overrun with corrupt officials, overrun with citizens who openly embrace illegal immigration, who harbor those who traffic drugs, who make a way for terrorists to enter the United States undetected, and who openly threaten the lives and families of the Law Enforcement Officers in the area?
Actually, I have such weird dreams that I often write them down just for future story lines. I had a dream once that involved tagging whales with nuclear devices that could be remotely detonated by a malicious enemy. Yikes, I must be in a bad mood, ’cause I’m not spreading any joy today. I must press send…and…stop…typing…….now.

OK, Travis, what do you eat before bedtime? Sounds as though you are having nightmares.

I think I drank a quart of hateraid before I went to bed…
As you might have guessed, I used to live in El Paso. We had some issues while we were there.
Alison-
Sorry to vent, next time I’ll try not to point out how that particular area seems bent towards denying their American heritage and tries to embrace the ethics and customs of another neighboring country.
WHOPPERS!

I love this blog and how unpredictable the responses can be. You all are the masters of keeping me entertained and on my toes.
This post must’ve been a jinx, though, because since that night I’ve had only boring dreams. Fire up the griddle!

Personally, I’m quite fascinated by *why* the icebergs are coming to destroy El Paso. (I see shades of The Day After Tomorrow.) If you come up with a convincing explanation, it sounds like a great story to me!

Hmmm, maybe the El Paso icebergs will make a future appearance…
