    Is there anyone here anymore?? Sheesh! Present!

    What are you doing? Filling out a GTKY survey...and trying to draft a letter.

    What do you wish you were doing? Working on a baby quilt I need to make before August. So far I've washed and dried the fabric and have procrastinated.

    What's the last thing you ate? Cut up cucumbers.

    What are you looking forward to? Holidays start Friday and we're flying to Saskatoon for a friend's wedding.

    What is one of your biggest fears? People disliking me.

    What was the last thing that made you laugh? And cry? Laugh: at one of the administrative assistants here flirting with one of the older, married analysts (and doing a terrible job of it). Cry: At a video of a dog welcoming his soldier Dad home after 6 months leave (thanks a lot @amandaf6283)

    What was the last dream you had (remember having)? I dreamed last night about a meeting I had scheduled for this morning.  It was scheduled for 45 minutes for 6 of us, but in my dream it was a huge meeting and half of the people were wearing sunglasses.

I dreamed it was my wedding and the best man and my younger sister drugged me, brought me to a basement, and forcibly gave me an IUI with best man's sperm so him and his GF in my dream(who isn't even with him in RL) could have a baby. Then, when they found out I was pregnant, they said they were going to take the baby from me when it was born. I told them that I was keeping the baby and if they tried to take me to court, I would go to the police and tell them what they did.

    Needless to say, I woke up plenty freaked out! DH's response when I told him the dream: "Well if best man ever did that, I would kill him."
