You know what the weirdest part was? The psych ward served an amazing buffet for breakfast and Trent had followed me into the dining hall to make sure I ate lol they and had silverware and stuff set out, and I remember thinking 'wow, this is gourmet!' and then waking up. aww - that's actually kind of sweet. So, what did Trent look like in your dream? I always seem to have a hard time putting FACES on characters. Most of the time they aren't completely formed in my mind. I'm not sure why though...hmm.... So, I'm curious what he looked like in your dream!

So, I'm curious what he looked like in your dream! I have the exact same problem! Sometimes i found it even very funny because it's always the same face that comes back with every new hero. LOL I even realized that i was picturing a black haired sun kissed man when he was really blond and pale! I really have a hard time putting faces on characters.

Oh gosh...You know here's the weird thing. In some of my dreams I have a clear view of exactly what they look like. In most of my dreams though it's more like an impression of someone. Their voice, what they smell like, posture, stature...etc. It was more of MY personal impression of Trent, as in how I think of him when I read about him in the books. kind of like how everyone has a different interpretation of the characters and situations- people don't always look at everything in exactly the same way as everyone else.
In my dream the impression I got off of Trent was much more of a businessman feeling, less of a political one if that makes any sense. He had a suit on and shiny black shoes and he felt very...I guess the impression I got off of him was businesslike, sturdy, and unfazed. Sort of rigid, maybe, and maybe a little concern. I remember the voice a little bit though. He sounded a little bit like a deeper version of Gerard Butler lol, but that might have been b/c my friends and I had a little discussion about how amazing G.B.s voice is and how sexy he is lol.
Trent was really annoying too, in the same way how Rachel finds him annoying when he implies that he cares for her safety and stuff.
The impression I got off of Quen was much more distinct. A very clean, quiet, well put-together man a hair taller than Trent. Strong but careful, cuz he picked me up in the dream when they found me hiding in the corner behind something lol. Very rational.
They were both very much how I interpreted them in the book.
I'm looking back on all this and I realize that it sounds kinda weird lol! Oh well.

Freedom, you're still lucky for dreaming about Trent, annoying or not. I once stayed up until crazy-o'clock reading ODW... then passed out and had a dream about accidentally squishing a pixy. Traumatic, I know. I was ashamed of my dream-self.

Geesh Freedom your dream sounded like a book I'd read. It's cool that you had a dream with Trent in it, but the BEST part was that you remember so much. I find it I don't speak about my dream as soon as I wake up I forget it in a few hours. Even the good ones!
BMS out tomorrow! woot!

Yeah, I tend to only remember the really horrible dreams, or the crazy ones, or the weird ones.
I can write my dream out if you want, but the details are getting a teeny bit fuzzy since it's been a week.
And HOORAY for BMS coming out tomorrow! I would love love love to grab it but I unfortunately don't get to read ANYTHING until Wed evening because I have an exam on Wed.

ooof ... that sucks ... I'm swinging between getting it at my store at some point (I have no clue when as I have so much to do before leaving for Cinncy on Wed morning) and just getting it at the store the signing is at. at this point, I think I'll just get it in Cinncy to save me some headache and forestall the same problem we had last year with another store.

Right, so I have this exam tomorrow AFTERNOON. Which means I don't get to go get the book until then. I don't know if you guys wanna talk spoilers but I'll be able to finish my first read thru of the book by tomorrow night because I tend to read fast and straight through in one sitting lol.

Yeah - I think there should be a separate BMS spoiler thread. I bought the book yesterday, but I can't start it yet. I think I'll get to start it either tonight or tomorrow.

Okay, well then how about whoever finishes the book first will start the spoiler thread? Yes? By the way, Kim Harrison did a little video about BMS. If you're interested, it's here --> www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDo6izU_Ww8.

So I decided to look up that weird dream I had, where trent and quen chased me through a gigantic old house and then put me in a mental institution.
"Chase To dream that you are being chased, signifies that you are avoiding a situation that you do not think is conquerable. It is often a metaphor for some form of insecurity. In particular, to dream that you are chased by an animal, represents your own unexpressed and unacknowledged anger which is being projected onto that animal. Alternatively, you may be running away from a primal urge or fear."
"Mental Institute To dream that you are in a mental institution, indicates a need for rest and reset your mind. You need to not be afraid to ask for help/assistance when you need it."
Interesting, no? I highly doubt any of these are actually true- I believe the dream came from reading the BMS excerpt too many times before bed lol, but it's still fun to interpret the dreams!
