Runaway Future

So last night, I had a pretty nutty dream. For my own sake, I’ll document it here and you can all think I’m crazy and ponder what it means in your own head, eventually coming to the conclusion that I need therapy. Anyways…

I was going to a Mooseheads game, but instead of the press box, we all were sent to my grandparents family room (note for myself: it was arranged like they used to have it, with the two chairs on the far end and the TV on the other end). Anyway, so all the press/scouting folk are getting settled in and it’s very cramped and there’s this really soft shiny gold pillow that for some reason I assumed my grandmother made, sitting there and so on. I remember there’s beer there, so I remember drinking so and feeling the effects after just two beer. The game starts, but I can’t see it because the TV is in the way (naturally, because we’re sitting in the family room). I have a hard time focusing, so I’m doodling in my notebook.

I doze off and I started to dream (for the viewers at home, this means I was dreaming inside my dream, it’s scary I know). So in my dream (inside a dream), I’m in the shower, but everything’s sort of reddish maroon tinged, like the shower curtain and the carpet. I remember, I was wearing shorts and that I was trying to wake up in the shower (not wake up from the dream inside the dream, but just in general) and then I was rushing around the room trying to find my clothes to get ready to go. For some reason, I think I’m inside a video game, but I don’t understand why or how. All my clothes were in stacks on the floor, similar to what I do when I’m too lazy to put them in my dresser.

Suddenly I wake up (into the grandparents family room) and the people in the press box/family room are all like “are you ok?”. They tell me I dozed off and we all come to the conclusion that I will undoubtably have my credientials revoked and will be fired. They then encourage me to stay and watch the rest of the game (I think I can see the ice now, but maybe not). Then I wake up for real.

Now with my own use of the Dream Dictionary, I’ve interpreted this all to mean that I am uneasy about my current use of my press creds/journalistic experience to date. I don’t feel I’ve been using the games as much to my advantage as I should, and I also feel a lot of my other writing has been slipping. Basically, the next game I plan on attending is on the 29th and I really need to start using this stuff to the full potential. So yeahh
