Really, really weird dream. Holy crap.

My dream started as I sat in a restauraunt like Chilis or Cheddars for hours and hours waiting for a check (and had other bad service like getting table shuffled around and our stuff moved from place to place), to find out that my division manager BSR was actually the manager of the place. Talked to other people in the restaurant, who ranged from introspective deep thinkers to rowdy college guys. My mom, wife and sister got up to go to the bathroom, and it seemed like they were gone for three hours. My Dad and I sat around and bullshitted with some of the other people in the back room that we were in.

Instead of judging the concerns of the people left waiting for hours, BSR decided to have a staff meeting where he rewarded the bad stuff. The people left waiting and I (including my family) decided to take up the carpet of the room to find a badly damaged parkay floor. BSR came in and had a staff sit-down meeting right in the middle of the frustrated mob of customers, and they started playing these weird propaganda films that featured themselves as cast members. The films included one Disney like animated film with members of my office as voiceovers. This was so insipid and bad that I actually chewed a horizontal line almost all of the way through my own tongue in the dream, but stopped short enough that I would still be able to speak coherently.

My dad went up to yell at BSR after the meeting got done, but lost his nerve at the last moment (which is something my Dad never does in real life, lose his nerve), and we decided to go home. On the way to the Tahoe, I got into a side conversation with one of the other younger guys from the back room that was getting bad service and during the process he had figured out what to do with his life. I showed him my gnawed through tongue (barely still attached by this point) and told him that “this was important too”. He agreed and happily went off to inact his plan for a better life.

That’s when I woke up, really having to pee. The space heater in my room had upped the temp to about 85 degrees and I was too hot and thirsty to sleep at the moment, at which time I decided to come and write this down. Now its time to get back to bed.
