Your name reminds me of that Martin Short movie, "Clifford" where his uncle says, "Can't you just act like a human boy for one minute? You can't, can you?!" =)

I had the most sensational dream last night, and it revolved around Humanboy.
Something Familiar and a few other of your songs were playing in the background.
There was this gorgeous stone pathway with waterfalls, raised stone ledges and tree's.. but with cobblestone streets not far off with downtown near. I was walking about a stone path, next to a stone hill [imagine a four foot tall thick brick gate, or lining of a bridge. Imagine that only with just a pile of stones, not connected, smooth, or filed down, but still stable] walking my dog. And Ben was walking along the top of this stone hill walking a miniature dog.
We crossed paths and our dogs ran off, so we ran after them and slammed headfirst into Davonnies, where we ran into Geoff..
It was the oddest thing.
And then there was some drama. I think I made an ass of myself and the two of you turned against me.
Anyway, I felt the need to tell someone about this dream, and who better than the others it involved? hmm.
have a good one :]
