You know it's bad when...

Ok, this is going to have spoilers for AWE so don't read if you haven't seen or don't care...
I had a dream last night. I was in a house with a few friends when suddenly, a form materialized in front of me and I knew who it was immediately: the ghost of Admiral James Norrington.
I was extremely happy until I realized he was a ghost so I was struck by the revelation that if he was a ghost, that meant he was really dead. Then he spoke, in much more elegant words, that I needed stop hating his death and I needed to be happy.
Ughh, even my subconscious is against me! How messed up is that? Am I really that far gone that I'm being visited in dreams by ghosts of FICTIONAL CHARACTERS???

Sorry about your dream. But maybe instead of that, your subconcious is telling you that your depression is resulting from another source? And that James Norrington was just the image it used?

Anyway, now it's almost like...closure? Yes, closure for the whole awful mess, like I just need to move past it now to other things.
I know my depression is from another source, but I don't think that's what it meant. I think it literally meant AWE because I haven't had AWE dreams in months and the last two nights both had AWE dreams. The night before last I had stumbled onto a showing of AWE extended edition on the Disney Channel but I was all pissed because it was already past James' death so I wouldn't get to see him at all.

I've come to terms with it. *sigh* And his appearance in Book 7 made up for his horrible death.
