So the weird dreams continue...

Last night I drempt of flesh eating seals. 

I'm not entirely sure where this was, other than at a sea-side town. It started with a pod of seals attacking, killing and eating a gray whale. 

Once they were finished with that, they headed to shore. They headed to shore for more flesh and blood, and they were headed directly for us!

The seals had cornered about ten of us just up from the wharf, and as we ran around looking for a place to hide, to run for cover, all we could find was a KFC.

Of course the moment we all got inside and closed the door we realized that hiding in a fast food restaurant selling fried chicken  was probably not the best choice, and then the glass door shattered...

...and I thankfully woke up.

Remember yesterday, when I said, “Now if cleaning up all the errors my co-worker made in the past two weeks was as easy… ”

Yea, that.

I don’t know why some employees remain when others are laid off.

I think, that if the Dept had just been closed down for the two weeks I was off, and I had to deal with all the orders for those two weeks now; that I’d be so much farther ahead of the game.

It boggles the mind, no, it boggles the soul. 

We’re all of us human, and we’re going to make mistakes. To be sure, I've made my share, but in the last two years alone I haven't cost the company near half a million dollars in errors. Why that person is still there, I do not know. Respect and sympathy for a person’s age should only get you so far. 

When I come back from vacations I shiver at the ineptitude I discover over the following weeks, if not months.  And so far, 2 days back I've had to process 4 credit/rebills, I've found 2 incomplete orders and 1 missed order.

*sigh*

So I'm not sure if you remember that vine video a few weeks back about the cute black fuzzy thing that someone touches and than a gazillion spiders burst forth. If you've not see the vine and have some , well here is a link. I don't suggest that you do view it, but hey, I'm not your mother.

Yea. Nice, right?! Well that thing made a starring role in one of my dreams last night, because yea, I'm all about the creep factor. I woke up immediately, cursing out my subconscious for allowing that image to taint my dream world.

As if that was not enough, I have the ability to continue an interrupted dream if I wake up.  (I had to work on that for years to develop the ability to lucid dream.) Most times this is a great ability, because hey, who hasn't said at least once, "If only I could go back into that dream." But when you've just dreamed of that spider abomination, then no, this is not the time to go back into the dream... decidedly not.

Alas, I did. Within a minute or so I fell back asleep and BAM! like a wicked case of acid reflux, the fuzzy spider thing is back.  

Naturally, I wake up, and yes... I fall back to sleep a few minutes later and the freaking spider thing is there again. 

I'm in my own self-induced, spider-infested dreamland Groundhog Day; and I don't like it. I've said it before, the only good bug is a dead bug.

Tonight I plan on watching 30 minutes of cute kitten and puppy videos. 

This. Cannot. Repeat.
