A Dream of Finland
It's happened. I've finally had my first Board Now related dream. I dreamed the I and my whole family took a vacation to Finland. It was surprisingly temperate when we got there which was good since I really didn't think to bring along warm enough clothes. And everyone there was wearing really warm fur hats even though they weren't needed that day. I went outside and looked at the blue blue sky and took deep breaths of air and thought to myself, "I'm in Finland!" (I used to have recurring dreams about returning to Rome after having spent a semester there that were similar. Just BEING there was so important. Still do sometimes).

So I realized at one point before I woke up that I had to tell you guys where I was, especially devilspawn & darkmage, so I scrabbled around to use someone's laptop to get online.

I really don't think I would have thought about a trip to Finland unless it was for you Fins. Unless...I did have a Monty Python disc out the other day with the Finland song...

Finland, Finland, Finland
The country where I want to be
Pony trekking or camping
Or just watching TV
Finland, Finland, Finland
It's the country for me

You're so near to Russia
So far from Japan
Quite a long way from Cairo
Lots of miles from Vietnam

Finland, Finland, Finland
The country where I want to be
Eating breaklfast or dinner
Or snack lunch in the hall
Finland, Finland, Finland
Finland has it all.

You're so sadly neglected
And often ignored
A poor second to Belgium
When going abroad

Finland, Finland, Finland
The country where I want to be
Your mountains so lofty
Your treetops so tall
Finland, Finland, Finland
Finland has it all.

Re: A Dream of Finland
Welcome, welcome! Whether you come in winter or in summer, you're always welcome here!
Be prepared though; in the winter-time it can get bloody cold, and in the summer-time it can be hotter than Ibiza.
My brother lives in Helsinki, so if you're coming some day, inform Devilspawn and me, we might even rendezvouz!
I know what people might think, but 1): Were not all alcoholics. 2): There aren't polar bears anywhere near Finland or the entire Scandinavia (zoos excluded). 3): We're not part of Soviet Union, we never were, and 4): We Finns are a little quiet and quite shy, but nevermind that. We always warm up sooner or later.

Gotta love that MP song! Hits home a lot...

Re: A Dream of Finland
Wow, that's one thing I didn't ever think I'd hear on a Buffy board...the Finland song!!! :) Big, big Python fan here, and I used to have a severely intense crush on Michael Palin so one time for his birthday I wrote my own lyrics to the Finland song (called "We love Michael Palin") and posted it on a Python board. A-hem...maybe too much information? Eh, who cares?

Re: A Dream of Finland
Wow, i actually own a furcap. Really cold winter days i might even use it, unless i am were people can see me. Right now it's really hot and i am actively pondering suicide to get away from the heat. Well not really ready for suicide but close.

Welcome here whenever you want Xeno. Darkmage and i will totally meet you. In fact if you plan on dreaming about us again tell me in advance and I'll meet you there. ;)

Re: A Dream of Finland
Thanx for the invite you two. God knows if I'll ever get the chance to really go there, but I'm sure it would be great. It would DEFINITELY be in the middle of summertime. Don't like the cold. So if we were going to try to have a mutual dream gathering, where in Finland would be best?

Re: A Dream of Finland
Hmmm... I'd say a lakeside cabin with some cool beer ('though I don't drink the stuff) and a quiet forest. Is that an okay dreamsetting?

Re: A Dream of Finland
We have a great cabin over here in Turun archipelago, there is a sauna and everything. It's on an holm/islet and just about 100 m from land. Very quiet and lots of wosy woods around. Just us and maybe some Finnish beers like Lapin kulta and Karjala. And don't worry Darkmage, i'll drink the beer. :p It's a pretty quiet place, except for some damn summerguests who occasionally set up shop on the other shore, damn!

And then when we get bored with no electricity we can go to my house, and watch some Buffy episodes and have some totally freaky fan discussions about it so that the rest of my family gets freaked out. :D

Ok, going to sleep soon and planning to dream about you guys. :)

OK, the cabin it is. I'll try to think on it when I go to sleep tonight. Maybe I'll see you there.

Re: A Dream of Finland
No kidding, Devilspawn? We have a summercabin just outside Rauma, about a 100 kilometers from Turku. I was sensing a similar presence...

I actually live in Hitis skärgård in the Turku archipelago. But we have a cabin here to. Have never been to Rauma though.

I still haven't had a Board Now dream. I feel like I'm no longer part of the BN cult, like I'm less than a member. :( WAAAAAHHHHH!!!!

Re: Congrats
Don't say that Paike. You're a Scooby with almost 800 posts! Plus, its a cult. You're not allowed to leave. Remember, you can check out any time you like, but you can NEVER leave. Okay well some people have left, but YOU're not allowed. There will be an intervention involved. :)

Hey, you're complaining? I'm a puny "Rogue Demon-Hunter"! Now what the hell is that, anyway? I'm a rogue hunting demons or I hunt rogue demons?

Re: Congrats
I wasn't complaining. I'm excited about it.

And Wes considered himself a "Rogue Demon Hunter" after he was fired from the Watcher's Council and joined up with Angel Investigations, but everyone kept asking what a "rogue demon" was. :)

But now that you're mine, we'll find a way to chase in the sun. Let me be the one that shines with you. Cos in the morning I don't know what to do. We're two of a kind. We'll find a way to do what we don't."

Re: Congrats
You're a couple ahead of me! ;)

Oh well, I didn't think I'd be a slayer for like 4 or 5 months! If the board were put up through the school year, then I'd probably only have 2 or 3 hundred by now.

Re: Congrats
Lol, Paike thanks (I think). But I actually plan to play the Sims and hang with my brother when he gets here, so I might not get to be a Slayer today, darn. :)

Re: A Dream of Finland
Don't pay attention to my # of posts in my profile. I visit a Xena board now and then, so it counts those posts, too!

Toodles, everyone!

Just go to pub110.ezboard.com/btalkingxena. It's the Talking Xena forum. There are some people there who have been through three generations of Xena forums. I've only been through two.
