Bewaaareee!
Aug. 5th, 2009 10:39 amLast night's dream, let me tell you it.
I dreamt that I had to go to some kind of convention for work. I was the first one to arrive so I sat in the lobby and waited for everyone else to show up. After a bit of waiting, Director R comes over with a rather harried look on his face.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Do you know what 'beware of the dust bowl' means?" he responded with a desperate look in his eyes.
"...noooo."
"Well, Weasley has been saying it to me repeatedly! I don't even know what it means but it's clearly really important and it's driving me mad!"
So we end up discussing what 'dust bowl' means and come up with several possible explanations. However, at that moment, Weasley scrambled into the lobby and immediately ran over to Director R, frantically telling him, "BEWARE OF THE DUST BOWL! NO SERIOUSLY, BEWARE OF THE DUST BOWL!"
"What does that even meeeeeeeeaaaaaaan?" Director R wailed, fists to the sky.
"I don't know... but this is really fun to watch!" I remarked, slightly callously I admit since it was clear these two were very, very serious about this.
Anyway, this morning when I got to work, Director R was in a conference so I couldn't tell him my dream, but I could and did tell Weasley so now he's happily spamming Director R's IM box with pictures from a google search for 'dust bowl'. And he's going to tell R "BEWARE OF THE DUST BOWL" all day.
And I thought this was going to be a boring Wednesday!
EDIT OF IRONY
So I finally was about to tell Director R about my dream when he came over to talk to me about some work stuff. Weasley happened to notice that we were talking, sauntered over and whispered, "Beware of the dust bowl!!" which sent me laughing and Director R going, "...huh?!"
After I had explained my dream to R, he got this befuddled look on his face and said, "Yesterday, I was talking to the creative director, who mentioned that he was going to Lake Tahoe. He said that the way there was like a dust bowl because it was filled with empty places that have gone out of business due to the recession."
And then realization dawned on his face and he went, "But neither of you guys were there when we had that conversation! No one could've told you!"
WEIRD, PEOPLE. WEIRD AND SLIGHTLY AWESOME.
