Diabetes Mellitus (=sweet urine)
I'm very bad at waking up. This week will not be fun. I have to manage my time extremely well.

Fantastic T
I just woke up. Before I forget my dream, here is the last hour of it:
Several people are stranded on an island, Lost style. Mr. T and his son, who is played by the kid who played the kid of the black guy on Lost, are among these people. The other characters are quickly ignored. The focus is on Mr. T and his son, who has an obsession with ants and is fond of dogs, especially puppies. Upon journeying away from the shore, Mr. T and his son encounter a Tyrannosaurus. It is abundantly clear that this island is inhabited by dinosaurs. Mr. T realizes what he must do to survive on the island. He must hunt the dinosaurs for food. Mr. T begins carrying his son while chasing smaller dinosaurs and running away from larger dinosaurs.
A woman, who is apparently Mr. T's wife, is accompanied by Richard Gere, playing the character he played in Pretty Woman, in the search for Mr. T and his son. It is implied that Mr. T's wife is sleeping with Richard Gere through their sexual banter. Together, they search the possible islands that Mr. T and his son may be lost on, but they do not succeed in finding anyone. As they are preparing to end their search for the day, Richard Gere leaves a Ferarri on a rock by the last island they searched. "If they are on this island, they will see the Ferarri and know that we have been here," he reasons. This troubles Mr. T's wife, as she knows that the sight of a new Ferarri sitting on a rock next to and island in the middle of the ocean will only infuriate Mr. T, and she makes this clear to Richard Gere. Richard Gere ignores her argument.
As it turns out, dinosaurs, on average, are much smaller than represented in movies with production budgets greater than 50 million dollars, such as Jurassic Park. Mr. T and his son have no trouble finding dinosaurs smaller than themselves, but these dinosaurs are very fast, even faster than Mr. T carrying his son. Mr. T knows that he must leave his son in one place, and then go hunt dinosaurs by himself. However, this puts his son in danger, as there are dinosaurs everywhere. Mr. T must solve these problems on a daily basis if he has any hope of escaping from the island.
Mr. T has escaped from the island and rejoins with the other characters that he had not seen since the day that they all were stranded on the island. During this time, they have all gained special talents. One woman can become invisible, one man can light himself on fire, and the other man can apparently turn his skin into stone. Mr. T, of course, can hunt dinosaurs.
"I thought the other member of the Fantastic Four could stretch himself. Also, he wasn't Mr. T." I am in a comic book store. I was so engrossed in the comic that I was reading that I felt as if I were dreaming about watching it on TV. I wander around the store, which looks much more like a library but with comics, to search for other things to read. There are some enormous comic books. One is entitled Pulp Fiction and some other less enormous words. As I open it, Andrew and Robby walk by. I say "Hi," but only Robby acknowledges my greeting.
I close Pulp Fiction and walk back to where I was previously sitting. Kaija has questions about the Mr. T's son's character. She wants to know what his power was, and I try to remember. "He could communicate with ants?" I suggest, "also he loves puppies." As I finish my last response, a man walks in and demands to sit at the table at which we are currently sitting. We don't move, and then he continues about how he is rich and important. We have no reasonable argument against that, another than the fact that he is a prick, so we get up. The man withdraws a Diet Coke from his suitcase, grabs an employee of the store, and demands that his beverage be refrigerated.
