Attempts At Love.

Went to Gamestop conference with other store managers and it was in the same area as their stores instead of all of us being far away from our hometowns. One of the store managers, I think her name is Rebecca? She's a real person but I have no idea who she is outside of someone who laughs a lot on conference calls.

We were in Indianapolis, and just the two of us ended up going into a Staples. We were sort of flirting, playing with each other in a strange way to pretend we didn't like each other but had focused enough that we wanted to be near each other. We went behind the counter and started helping customers in the way we would help them at Gamestop. We got caught, got chased out of the building in very indie movie, romcom fashion.

There was a sunset and I don't think we ever became romantically involved, but we helped each other get through that conference as two people who didn't previously have any closer friends in the area.

Well Well Well If It Isn't Lana At the Crib.

  I had a dream that started where i would be leaving work and driving home a very long way and started to find shortcuts through all of these different rural areas and it felt a little like red dead redemption where you’d find these massive open plains and swamps and forests, but the game itself while i was driving would start to look like old boxy racing games, and i would be driving up on the walls, etc. to avoid other cars and animals and trees, and then eventually as i was getting back to the highway, it would look like the sonic the hedgehog bonus game where you had to run up the sides of the half pipe. I noticed one guy was driving the same way home as i was and he started to follow me and he passed me on the road and he nodded at me, but he ended up dying as the sonic road transitioned to the regular road back home. Like somehow his nervous system could not adapt to the shift from half pipe to highway. Then i was “home” at this house that i lived in and Jack was there and Kalee

His Mother, The Nun

  It was very similar to stranger things. We were in a weird desert town and were with a little kid. i think cellphones aren't working or could be detected by “the nun” so we weren't using them. The kid we were with was able to shapeshift into a slug/crab thing but it wasn't a cool special power. That was  his natural form and his mother, the nun, found that very very special and he escaped her. He was on the run. you and i had him and had to leave everything behind and had no money but were wanted by the law. She caught up with us in a casino we were hiding out in. and we didn't know but a far aways off… he saw her and suddenly looked very scared whole grotesque face and he paused and far away we saw her and she saw him and she made long eye contact  with me and it felt eternal and timeless like i couldn't move and would never move again frozen in time them she screamed like SHE was terrified like a horrible scream he turned into his original form and you followed

Is this Your First Time Closing Alone (Graveyard Shift)

I had a dream that i had to close, but instead of just closing the starbucks i had to close an entire supermarket as well. And that meant not only counting the 16 registers (that was fin,e i could do it) but i also had to do all the floors and then do weird shit like closing the deli. This meant cleaning the huge piano that was there are twisting these glass bulbs onto different levers so that they wouldn’t get dusty (after i put the knobs on, the glass almost immediately started collecting dust) and also using specific chemicals to wipe down these blades that were in the ceiling and in the wall. It looked like a pizza oven but with a ton of blades. Like a huge version of a straight razor, kind of. I also had to spray for bugs. It was a huge hose attached to a massive perfect cube and i had to walk the edge of the entire store, hitting every point where the wall met the floor but also different places underneath furniture and underneath shelving. There were specific areas i could not s
