You're Fired

I've been having some really weird dreams the last couple of nights. Whenever I fall asleep, I dream about work. More specifically, I dream about getting fired. It's really strange. Sunday Night/Monday Morning, I had 3 different dreams about getting the boot. The first one was because of work performance. The second was because I told somebody off. The third, I don't know why I was getting fired, but they made a spectacle about it. I was brought into an auditorium and fired in front of about 200 people who were laughing and pointing. Even though I knew they were just dreams, when I finally woke up for good Monday morning, I had to log into to some work stuff to make sure I was still employed after my vacation. I would hate to drive 35 minutes to the office only to find out my badge doesn't work. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your perspective, I am still gainfully employed. But because of all the waking up, I went to work dragging like a mug Monday.

Monday night/Tuesday morning, I was mad tired. I actually fell asleep around 12:30. I'm pretty sure it happened mid sentence. Too bad my sleep only lasted about an hour before I was awakened in a cold sweat by another dream about being arrested at the office. This one felt the most real. Although I don't know what I did, and I'm not doing anything wrong in real life, I felt the tightening of the handcuffs like it was real. I felt the anxiety of trying to explain to my loved ones why I was going to jail. That dream messed with my head. Now, I'm writing this blog post, which I wont post until Wednesday, since I already posted for Tuesday and trying will myself back to sleep. Why can't I dream about normal stuff like falling off a building or losing my teeth or drowning or something. Wait, I don't want those either.. Anyway, let me try to go back to sleep and hope I don't get fired or arrested again.
