I had a weird dream over the weekend. It was night, and Rowdi was on the back porch (except it was the raised wooden back porch from the house I lived in for nine years in New Jersey). I see little Sydney approaching Rowdi, and I get worried that Rowdi is going to chase her. Then Rowdi starts growling – really angry like – and I get more worried. But then I notice she’s looking beyond Sydney.
“What are you growling at, girl?”
I sit down next to Rowdi and look to the other end of the porch. There’s a white cat on it. Both Rowdi and I approach it, and then I see it’s not a cat but is a monkey. It has weird eyes and looks like an all-white lemur.
Suddenly, Rowdi grabs the monkey by its neck, and, within a second, kills it bloodlessly. She then walks off like nothing happens.
As far as I can remember, the dream ends with me telling SarahK what happened, a bit ambivalent about the issue. On one hand, it was disturbing to see sweet Rowdi kill something so violently, but, on the other hand, it was good she took out some crazed monkey that probably escaped from the zoo.
So what do you think the dream means? That I have a good dog?
I think this is a sign that you should follow Rowdi’s example and quit being such a pansy when you come face to face with monkeys. Seriously, in all your stories, the monkeys are dishing you a beat down and then you start whining how it’s scarred you forever. Just start giving it back to them. I’m sick and tired of listening to you whining about monkeys all the time.
I think it means that you should show the monkey invaders who is boss, and write more hellbender.
I’m going to write more Hellbender… just not on IMAO.
If I have to wait, the monkies win already.
Monkeys rule.
No, it means that you should have listened to Orion and me, and taken up rugby instead of getting married.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Don’t you see, your Rowdi! And the monkey in the dream was just a metaphor. A metaphor for real monkeys. I think it means you are angry at your dad or something.
Good dog.
You rethuglican bastard, white lemurs are wingnut code for palestians, you trained that Zionist dream dog of your to disporportionately kill muslim lemurs. Muslim lemers lived in Florida since the beginning of time so you have to kill them to steal their land. Don’t you care about the lemur children are dying? Even in you dreams you are revelling in bloodlust. ITS BUSH’S FAULT.

I for one welcome our new Monkey-Overlords, and hereby offer my services to round up fellow citizens to slave away in their underground Banana-Mines.
All hail the MonkeyLords!

Monkey = liberal
Enough said.
You have a secret you want someone to release you from.
