Odd Creations

Posted on Feb 18, 2004 at 10:35 AM in Uncategorized

Every once in awhile I like to create my own words or phrases. But the oddest thing happened this morning — I created a “word” in a dream.

In my dream, I was involved in creating a weekly variety show at our high school and a girl came up to me and said there would be a few UnsatisfActs in the program. She explained that the UnsatisfActs could be speeches or skits expressing dissatisfaction with a person or event. We’d have the chance to read the speech or skit prior to the variety show and make sure they were appropriate.

Then I woke up and laughed at myself. My guess is that UnsatisfAct came from my CineMinistry comment left on my neighbors’ blog last night. Hehe.

    ha ha! i laughed out loud on that one. good word though. i like it…

    i dreamt last night that i was a character in lord of the rings and got to shoot a scene with dominic monaghan. i said to myself, ‘oh! that scene was good’ and then a few minutes later was told that that scene got cut and i wouldn’t be in the movie… i think it’s revealing some deep seeded issues.

    another word you’ll like: foreignamation (a combination of “foreign” and “animation” created by Fred Donovan to describe “The Triplets of Bellville,” a French animated film)
