Scenes from a night's dream

[gridlore]

kshandra and I were taking part in a some sort of distance race through a post-apocalyptic landscape. We ended up in the ruins of some city where the ruins were dominated by a very disturbing statue of of Teddy Roosevelt. This city was the site of a weird blend of Worldcon and Burning Man. The last things I remember before I woke up was sitting in a wrecked car watching some event. lysana came up to me to ask for two Star trek badge ribbons I had in my back pocket; as I gave them to her, I saw a long table with a bunch of children around it. I saw that about half the kids were not human. Then I woke up.

Strange, no?

Yeah, I mean, Star Trek badge ribbons? Not Traveller? That's just weird.

I often end up with ribbons that have utterly no meaning to me. People will just hand me a pile and ask me to pass them out. So me having a couple of ribbons in a pocket is not at all out of character.

Really, the only time we've ever done Traveller ribbons was when we were still doing the annual Baycon party. Not enough people got them to be worth the money.

Heh. Jeff Beeler gave me a Traveller ribbon at SF Contario two weeks ago :)
