I keep having a recurring nightmare dream where I’m in the animated Disney version of Robin Hood.
I love that movie. I totally had a crush on the fox that played Robin when I was little. (There was no hope for us, sadly. He was a fox. And animated. It just wouldn’t have worked out.)
Jonathan and I watched it on television a few weeks ago and ever since then I keep dreaming that Jonathan is Prince John and is screaming at the rhinoceros guards to“SEIZE THE FAT ONE!!”
Did I mention when he is screaming this HE IS POINTING AT ME?
When I tell Jonathan I keep having this dream just about every night, do I get sympathy?
NO.
He just laughs his ass off at me. Apparently, the fact that I have a recurring dream about being a portly, persecuted animated character is endlessly amusing to him.
So, now when it happens I have my own way of dealing with it.
Jonathan thinks it’s unfair that I keep rolling over (in my lumbering fashion) and smacking him with a pillow when it happens.
I?
Think it’s totally acceptable.
Totally.

Of course its acceptable. Although since you are so far away and we don’t share a bed I have to say that I snickered as well!
Oh lord, I think I could still recite that movie verbatim. Sad but true.
“You gots lots a kids Maid Mewian”.
My favorite Disney movie ever!
Sorry, I’d be laughing my butt off too.
That’s right! You smack him as hard as you can with that pillow; don’t they know they are responsible for their actions in your dreams? :)
Definitely acceptable in my book.
I was also in love with the fox Robin.
And Dmitri from Anastasia.
*sigh*
I agree! Suck it up, J!
It’s all his fault and he should know better. At least its a pillow and not something pointy.
Yeah, I gotta say, I would have had the same reaction as Jonathan.
Oh me too.
Also Justin in the Secret oh NIMH.
Nice… That’s all I really have to say. lol
I had no idea you harbored such strong aversions to cross-species, live/animated relations. Maybe you limited yourself too much.
Okay, now i have to rent Disney’s Robin Hood. That’s just too funny.
Robin Hood and Little John walkin’ through the forrest,
Laughin’ back and forth at what the other had to say.
Reminiscin’ this and that and havin’ such a good time.
O-da-laley, O-da-laley, Golly what a day.
I totally had that movie memorized.
I always thought that movie would have been better if a ninja jumped out and did the job right. But I don’t think you’re crazy. I’ve had some crazy dreams. Animated characters are nothing.
You can still roll over? Well then, you can’t be THAT fat! Tell that man to leave you alone until you CAN’T roll over. Then. Then you’ll be fat enough to poke fun at.
It sounds like he deserves it, what with the lack of sympathy and all ;-)
Hey, I’m with you – horror movies can be animated too. Just because it’s a cartoon, doesn’t mean it’s not scary.
It is just so bizzare what pregnancy–especially late pregnancy does to our dreams. Men will never know or understand!!!
That is a WEIRD dream to have recurring. Ha! And, yeah, he deserves a good smack — especially when you’re in LATE PREGNANCY! Smack away, I say! ;)
I don’t think that’s unreasonable at all!
I had a dream a few months ago that my fiancé was having sex with Mystique from X-Men in our shower. When I caught them (in my dream) he said, “You didn’t see anything.”
Even though I know it seems silly, I woke up SO mad at him. Actually, I was sort of mad at him for weeks and I only had that stupid dream one time.
I used to have this recurring nightmare as a child where I was a part of the team of ThunderCats. I’m not totally remembering the plot, but I’m certain taht I was animated.
[...] And, NO. My hot crush on the fox in the Disney version of Robin Hood DOESN’T count because I was young and he’s an animated character. It never would have [...]
Looks like this “Robin Hood” movie would be a great movie to watch just like the movie about King Arthur.”;:
Robin Hood movie is quite good, a bit more historically accurate in my opinion;~`
