Dream WoW is better than RL WoW

For some odd reason, I've been dreaming about WoW a lot lately. I'm doing almost nothing on the game, just standing in Dal for hours on end, so no idea why I'm suddenly dreaming about it nightly. Most of the dreams are nothing major, but tonight's was really rather yummy and exciting.
In this dream, WoW was real. It was "me" (a physical me, though looking like FFXI Thistle). The world was real, not WoW-cartoonish, yet still I had things like a minimap and I could hover my finger over items to read the popup text about them.
So, in my dream I enjoyed PvP like I used to. It was fun and exciting! Giant open grass fields to "fight" on (I don't think there was any actual blood or killing? Or maybe it was just me who didn't do it). Horde would start at one end of the field and Alliance on the other, and we'd run at each other.
In-game, my Keen character (belf) has a thing for humans. He /flirts with them all the time. In the dream, this "big" human (wasn't too much taller than me, but he was really muscular/wide) tackled me and was holding me down and (darned being at work!) things progressed really rather nicely from there. :)
It was a cool dream for "RP" reasons too -- we couldn't understand each other's languages, but eye contact and gestures and touches communicated everything we needed to say. I'd really love to try cross-faction RP over IM sometime.
An interesting thing this dream brings up is that I'm never RL me in my dreams -- I've not seen myself as "me" in my dreams for many many years, I always look like FFXI Thistle. It should seem strange that I picture myself as a short, young, oriental man, but it doesn't.

It could happen. I could see Wyrnn and Garrosh playing together like school children...in chibi form...I need to see that happen.
I remember I once had a weird FFXI dream. I was at school (highschool) and I had to goto the office for whatever reason. Well when I got there it kinda degraded from whatever reason I was there for into a battle that was basically the 2-3 dragon fight. We won, then I guess winning meant we got to go home early from school so we had a great time.
One of the few times I woke up and straight away just went, "What the fuck..."

*dies at your FFXI dream* That's great! :D
