Hi Muppet, I just wanted to drop by and say hi. I'm one of the many Garian Angels around here you should drop by heven some time at www.h2g2.com/A300943 Have a fish and enjoy the show yeah!!
P.S. are you any particular muppet?

This sort of depends on the kind of day I'm having. For example Grouch days are common, as are Swedish Chef episodes, but quite often i'm just one of those nondescript muppets laughing in the background of the big scenes.

I'm small and furry at all times though

my favorite kind of muppet

I myself can often relate to Super Grover VERY well. Though I cannot fly, I do a most credible imitation by unintentionally crashing into, onto and through things when walking, running or even simply sitting down.

This sounds like true muppet behaviour. But consider this: do you fly in your dreams? In which case perhaps you are simply sleepwalking.

Tip of the day: Avoid wheelbarrows as a means of transport

No, in fact I don't dream at all or rather I should say, when I do it's a VERY rare occasion. The last dream I recall having was over 6 months ago.

Advice of the day - Palletjacks, slightly raised, can be used as be used almost as good as a skateboard on the docks if you're bored.

You don't have dreams? Are you sure you're not actually dead?

No dreams? I'm so sorry, that must be awful. Dreams are what make sleeping so much fun. I dream every night, when I wake up I'm always in the middle of a dream, and I always remember them. In fact a lot of the time they're more entertaining than real life. Probably why I'm so bad at getting up.

Thought: Perhaps they are real life and this is dreaming.

Yeppers! No dreams, yet I have a pulse, walk, talk and breathe. My subconscious brain stays active at a functionally normal awareness level with sufficient long and short term memory access to my conscious brain to interact normally with the outside world even though I'm dead asleep. I've had entire conversations while crashed out and I'm told I spoke just as normally as I do when I'm awake. On the other hand, I'm able to distinguish between noises made in the middle of the night and when something sounds abnormal I wake up. Otherwise I remain asleep, even when the kitten has gotten herself stuck in the venetian blinds again and/or is tear assing through the house beating up imaginary bugs and/or chasing her own tail.
