A friend of mine's male relative had passed away and friends and family were invited to their house to go through his things and take what we wanted. He'd lived in their garage and was a woodworker. I was looking at some picture frames he'd carved but a little girl took the one I really wanted. They were intricately carved in scrollwork patterns instead of just plain slats. My friend and I were going through his books. I ended up taking his cartoon book collection after sheepishly making sure my friend didn't want them. There were a lot of kid and young adult books I didn't take because the family still had kids in the house. There were also video tapes of the original Battlestar Galactica TV series & something called DinosaursEARTH that I really wanted and eventually got.
Later, I found myself in the world of the original Battlestar Galactica. I was at a dinner table pal-ing around with Dirk Benedict and Richard Hatch as Starbuck and Apollo. Then I was in the Viper landing bay. The blond woman who was in love with Starbuck was in charge. I saw her reflection in the glass as she had her headset on and was guiding a ship to its landing. I was somehow both watching all this and participating. The ship that was landing was small and clunky, without a lot of automatic controls. I had to remind myself that this was the older show so the technology wasn't quite as clean or advanced.
Suddenly, we were being invaded and I had a giant wad of old, dark purple, chewing gum in my mouth. I actually felt we were being attacked before there was any evidence of it. I found cover and was trying to clear the gum from my mouth. At some point, I saw Colonel Tigh but it was more like Colonel Tigh's head on someone else's body. I ran into Boomer at some point too, I think it was later, as I was escaping. I went down the ladder to the landing bay floor, through a door, down some passages, avoiding red and white search lights, until I was outside of the ship. It was daylight and kind of looked like normal street here on Earth, maybe in California. There I discovered androids that looked like normal people, got rid of my gum, and realized that I either had magic powers or was a good android myself. I could emit an electric spark at the bad androids that caused their entire circuitry to fry. I was doing that to one who looked like a youngish woman with curly brown hair but she wouldn't fully shut down. I think I whined that it wasn't fair and kept jabbing my emitting finger at her. Finally even she admitted she should be done for. |
