Insomnia Blogging: These Dreams of Poo

I was awake for a bit this morning. I did manage to get back to sleep eventually. But in my sleep, I had dreams. Weird dreams. Dreams that made Charlemagne seem normal.

Remembering dreams is always harder than it seems, but here’s the key points:

  • Working at Walmart sucks, especially when you aren’t allowed to leave the store and must sleep there. To make matters worse, somebody was sleeping in my bed.
  • Why would somebody drive four hours everyday just to work at Walmart. You gotta figure, in a four hour drive in any direction, there should be a closer Walmart location.
  • Having dreams of having insomnia is just as bad as insomnia.
  • Why would anybody learn to speak Italian if they’re not actually Italian?
  • This Walmart has a pretty low ceiling.

That’s right folks. I dreampt about working at Walmart. Absurd surrealism or chilling vision of the future…

Feel free to interpret this dream anyway you’d like.

This does suck quite a bit. I don’t sleep very much, and when I do, I have weird dreams. Why can’t I have normal dreams? Simple dreams. Dreams about having sex with hot chicks. No, I gotta have dreams about finding people sleeping in my bed, at Walmart, thus causing my dream me from not getting any sleep.


Another blog post has come my way that is hot. Totally hot. Award hot. This award for hotness goes to Grace of There’s a Land That I See for her post My Man is Back.

This WhatIGotSoFar Would Do Me Award is well deserved. How often is somebody willing to call a grown man “My poor baby.” Especially a man with his two front teeth knocked out. Getting the oogily-googilies for a guy with no teeth is hot.

And it shows there may be hope for me yet.

    Youre psychic and realize that one day everyone will work for WalMart. Everyone. Their plans for world domination won’t be stopped.

  2. Miss Ash Says:

    Ummm perhaps that is your dream job….none of us have any idea where you work…you could very well work at Walmart right now….and you just dreamt about your real life…except for the sleeping in Walmart part.

  3. Jillian Says:

    I don’t think a Walmart with low ceilings would draw a lot of customers.

  4. whatigotsofar Says:

    Wiwille - that means you’ll be working there too. But I don’t think Walmart takes kindly to drunk babies.

    Miss Ash - I thought I told you where I work.

    Jillian - Neither do I. But this was a fictional walmart that existed only in my dreams, or nightmares.

  5. Woozie Says:

    One time my friend dreamed that me and a mutual friend died when the shed we were sitting in front of exploded for no reason. Yep.

  6. Miss Ash Says:

    Nope you told the city IE location of where you work but that was it. No worries, i’ll just assume you work at Walmart now.

  7. whatigotsofar Says:

    Woozie - sounds like a coup d’etat failing before it can begin.

    Miss Ash - you figured me out. My name is Herbert Tunkel. I’m 68 years old. I work as a greeter at the WalMart at Hwy. 7 & Jane.

  8. JLee Says:

    I always dream about bathrooms. That really sucks.

    I agree that it takes a real man to get his teeth knocked out. That IS Hot!

  9. Sparkling Red Says:

    I’ll never be able to hear that “The Box” song again without thinking of this post.

  10. whatigotsofar Says:

    JLee - I wish I could dream of bathrooms. You know my thoughts on the serenity of the bathroom, right?

    Spark - are you referring to the band “The Box” on my blog? [shudder] Because I was actually spoofing the classic Van Morrison tune These Dreams of You.

  11. Bob Says:

    Woozie, that dream is nothing. As I was leaving the theatre after watching the first FINAL DESTINATION movie, a friend I saw it with tells me about how she had a dream of all of our friends slipping on the stairs at my house and dying. I didn’t want to go home alone after that and convinced a couple of them to come with.

    Looking back on that story…. maybe I should try that strategy again, it got two girls to come home with me before, it could work again!

  12. whatigotsofar Says:

    Bob, that wasn’t a dream. The stairs in your old house were scary. They weren’t level (nothing in that house was level) and they weren’t deep enough for an adult sized foot. And the glossy paint job on those stairs made them a bit slippery. And didn’t an old girlfriend of Columbia trip on them once and almost fall down.

  13. whatigotsofar Says:

    And one more thing Bob, the Sun is going down!

  14. Bob Says:

    I am unsure what that quote has to do with anything here. If that is your way of trying to invite yourself over to my place to video games than tomorrow night would be good.

    Going back to the stairs, I don’t think anybody ever died on those stairs so I am pretty confident that it was a dream….. unless…. I haven’t seen Cib or Cheeseman in a long time. Oh crap!

  15. whatigotsofar Says:

    Bob, read #3 and the stuff under the meme

  16. Sparkling Red Says:

    Who’s Van Morrison?

    (Kidding. I’m just kidding.)

  17. Bob Says:

    oh… I see now. So I am invited over to YOUR place.

  18. Random Chick Says:

    Are you sure you weren’t watching that movie where Natalie Portman has to sleep in a Walmart because she was poor and pregnant? It sounds vagely similar to your dream…although, I don’t think she spoke Italian or that the ceilings were low…

  19. Maxie Says:

    I always wanted to spend the night in a mall… but not a walmart. It’s no fun since walmart is open 24 hours in most places… but don’t you think it’d be fun if it was all shut down. You could eat all the food and sleep in the tents in the camping section.

  20. whatigotsofar Says:

    Spark - you’re teetering on the edge here. That’s nearly a pie-able offence ’round these parts.

    Bob - yup, installed and ready to go. Haven’t unlocked any players though.

    Random - I’m a guy. I haven’t seen that chick flick and I never will. Again, I’m a guy.

    Maxie - I’ve spent too much of my life in a mall after hours. Kinda boring. All the stores are closed and locked up. And mall security always has a giant bug up its collective ass.

  21. Grace Says:

    OMG, I almost missed this post!
    That award is going right into my sidebar… boy, am I proud!

  22. whatigotsofar Says:

    You should be proud. It’s much better than the WhatIGotSoFar Would Rip Off My Head And Shit Down My Neckhole Award.
