Girls can´t do proper science fiction
Life just isn´t fair.
While I love scifi and Chiara doesn´t, these days the cruel irony is I´m having a random assortment of nightmares whereas she gets to dream (as she did last night) of being on a spaceship, of all things.
Let me tell you, if I were to dream of being on a spaceship, it wouldn´t be long before the lightsaber fights broke out and the alien babes made their appearance. If one is to dream of science fiction scenarios, one is to do it right. Essential elements include the abovementioned but can also contain space dogfights, magical powers (I didn´t say Jedi; I want to be inclusive), galaxy-wide quests for rebellions against evil empires, and many other exciting things.
Chiara tells me that the main thing about her science fiction dream was finding herself in a space suit, looking at the boots, and wondering if there was any purpose to the boots having the shapes of toes molded into the exterior.
No laser swords, just amusement at the shape of the boot of the space suit.
Argh!
