I had two dreams last night. In the most recent one I was a superhero or your local equivalent, and no one cared that it was just my job to fight the minions of darkness. In fact, I believe I even got paid for it. Special powers appear to have been in the buffy style of super strength and good fighting skills. I lived in a flat with my mum and bro and occassionally I was spelled out from having to fight everyday by a friend. One night when I was away fighting somewhere else, my bro got it in his head to fight for me and appeared before this hoard of orcs, dramatically annoucing himself as Pips, to which they all stared in a blank silence, trying to figure out if this was all just some cosmic joke. I was rushing to his rescue when I woke up.
Second, earlier dream, involved me attending a dig that was also a reality tv show. My reasoning being that as the only one with archaeological experience there, I was going to be paid and act as assistant dig director, only when I got there I was thrown in with all the other contestants into stupid contests like everyone having to ask someone out on a date within an hour or else... I missed that one because I was in the middle of an arguement with a former friend on stealing her job on the dig, and she was accusing me of being lazy. I later discovered that all the girls had asked only two of the guys out, so one guy had to do a rota of six dates in one night... of course, that guy was Sean Connery *L* So the former friend was trying to discredit me with the dig director and I was upset and demoralized thinking she might just manage it somehow, but then the director came and didn't care, so we spent a nice long time discussing the details of the dig, setting up reference points etc. The dream skipped to the next day when I was actually digging and directing the others to dig and I was feeling a lot better, which is good since the reality tv show part was making me miserable. It's a pity most digs are like that in real life, only without the stupid contests.

...in fair Ariana where we lay our scene.
...the idea of a superhero named Pips is entirely too neat, though.
