Dream: Mechano-werewolf and the dough fighters

Last night's dream:
I was in a French horror movie -- there was a guy who was (through surgery and technology) turning himself into a werewolf. He had a twin brother who was normal. It was weird and I can (well, not as clearly now) remember his face and his twin's face. The mechan-wolf had more hair, stronger jaw and cheekbones, and more musculature. People kept speaking French to me, and all I could remember were phrases like "Ou ét le sal de bains?" (I have only had 2 quarters of French in my life, and I did poorly at that, so it was weird to be digging up all of that rusty knowledge.)

Then I was in a video game-type quest. (Maybe because I have been hooked on World of Warcraft, due in stores tomorrow!) I had a cohort in my quest but he was busy fighting the big baddie of this area and I was to take on the minions. The evil creatures I was fighting looked like a cross between a hollowed out gourd, the Pillsbury doughboy and Jack (from the Nightmare Before Christmas). Lean, doughy but dried out and hollow with a fixed open expression on their faces. It was creepy -- I wasn't particularly concerned in my dream about defeating them, but they were not easy.

They started coming down out of a big tree, and I took large, elaborate, heavy, iron, wavy branching swords and hurled them at them, trying to get them before they got out of the tree. But they easily dodged out of the way. So I had a big bone (like a dinosaur bone) that I was using to fight them but they seemed to get out of the way pretty quickly or grab the end of it. I think I was starting to get concerned then.

This blog entry is supposed to persuade Roughgroove's friends to upgrade their computers and buy into the World of Warcraft video games? I think not. I think it shows serious aggressive/anxious thoughts about gaining weight ("doughboys" which need to be fended off with blazing forked swords), is what I think. It's so sad --even Roughgroove's fat cells are skinny, like Jack Skellington. They don't want to be skinny! they want to be fat! They want to hold onto Roughgroove's bone!

And who is the mechanized-werewolf French twin, whom Roughgroove wishes to invite to the "salle de bains"? If he's part mechanized, then he must be good in the gym, n'est-ce pas? Although Patitos hesitates to psychoanalyze further, Roughgroove should advise any recent gym partners of his who have begun neglecting to shave that they should avoid hanging out in the sauna room together, or else they will have to dodge Roughgroove's bone.
