Yesterday and today have been wonderful days. Only one thing would have made it better: Alcohol.

KIDDING! lawl. They could have been made better by getting the chance to talk to Al about my travel plans in October. Would have been awesome. But, didn't happen, and so I shall say that they have been wonderful, as the rest of them was pretty darn good - if a little strange.

Introducing another person into the mix of weird and strangely awesome people I work with: Chris! He doesn't work in the same department as I do (he works in produce), but while stocking shelves he frequently makes little stops at the bakery section to hug me and crack a joke. He's a pot-head, and quite proud of it - not afraid to openly discuss it either. Funny guy, a little on the annoying side sometimes, he's the kind of guy that makes the best of every situation. Most of the staff at Sobeys hates him. Apparently, he is WAY too odd and brass, and he does come on strong. Such a nice guy though, and our friendship - albeit stationed solely at work - has started to grow. We bonded after meeting in the upstairs staff room at our early 15 minute break. He was laughing at newspaper comics and blowing up balloons. He offered me one, and when I blew it up, he popped it with the corner of his chocolate milk carton and laughed. xD After admitting he was often high, and that he head-bangs at random intervals for no reason, he hugged me and that was that.

When he hugged me today I was bagging dinner buns in packages of 12 and he made a comment that was hilarious. This is how it went:

Oh dear. Yes, it went on for a few more lines that I won't repeat. It was quite the mass of innuendos. Oddly enough, I totally played along, and was fine with the whole thing. The rest of the bakery staff was mortified. Laughed at them. Should have seen their faces.

It was a great moment. What a thing to start off the day.

So enough about work! I could talk about work all day long, and that seems to be the only thing I can talk about lately. Soooo boring.

The other night I had a dream. Very, very, very COOL dream. Like, Very. I was having such a great time at this place, and it was all mysterious and exciting and adventurous. Not sure where I was, or who I was with, or really what happened. But, I do remember waking up in a cold sweat. Why? Well, the dream was all fine and dandy. It had progressed and I was feeling good and things were great. My little sister and I were standing in a house, talking about some kind of thing, when out of nowhere, the floorboards explode. O.O SOMETHING is coming out of the ground - but I can't see it. I know it's there, though. Sarah screams and reaches for me. And then it grabs her legs. And she's going down with it - back into hell. I grabbed her hands, but was pulled along with her and by the force of the creatures pull we were violently torn apart. Her scream echoed as she was dragged down through the shattered floor. And I woke up - sweating, breathing hard and terrified.

Well, just to say, I closed my blinds, turned on some white noise and checked on Sarah - who was fast asleep. But I didn't sleep that night. :(
