A new low
Saturday, November 15, 2008 at 8:42PM It finally happened. I'm having dreams about BLOGGING.
This usually happens to me when I've been obsessed spending a lot of time doing one thing. At the height of my City of Heroes superhero career, I dreamt at night about superjumping around the city, thwarting evil. Those were pretty good dreams.
Once I read the entire Diana Gabaldon Outlander series from start to finish. For two weeks I had some REALLY good dreams. Mmm, Scottish burrs and men in kilts.
When I was a waitress and pulling a lot of shifts, I'd have nightmares where my section was the size of a football field and people would be ordering really complicated drinks in a whisper while people at other tables impatiently flagged me down. Obviously, those were not fun dreams but every server has those dreams, so at least I could go to work and expect sympathy.
But dreaming about blogging? It's not like I can wake up and exclaim, "OMG! I just had this whacked out dream where savvysuzie posted something really funny but nobody commented and then barefootfoodie put me on her blogroll!". I mean, I've never been cool but - c'mon.
So, yeah. I think I need to play more Warhammer or something.

You're not the only one!
I've had dreams about blogging and woken up TALKING about the post I was "writing.'
I haven't had the blogging dreams yet but I've had the server dreams so many times. I haven't waited tables in at least 8 years but I still have the dream sometimes. It's usually after I've eaten out and watched the workings of the restaurant and snickered when I thought of how I could do it better. Oh, and I always pre bus and get yelled at by Jamie.
I've definitely had the blogging dreams. Or I'll dream about ways to re-organize my sidebars. Or I'll dream about ACTUALLY writing something funny.
;-)
I've had a blogging nightmare, where all my drafts were published in their unfinished nonsensical state.
I'm like Casey, I still have dreams where I'm working at the restaurant I quit four years ago. Just last night I dreamed that I was there cleaning! Very disturbing.
On an unrelated topic, I'm making my HASAY rounds. Hope you're off doing jumping jacks or something similarly calorie-burning right now?!?
I vaguely remember dreaming about my blog not long ago...I can't recall much about it tho...
I had a dream not long ago about the shop I used to work in about 9 years ago..and it was one of those NAKED dreams..UGH...I somehow ended up out on the floor w/ NO shirt on..it was not fun....

I dream about blogging all the time. Comes with the territory of being encompassed in something like blogging, I guess.
I have those dreams too. It's all full of drama to. Blogger drama... sad and fictional.
Yup, been there, still there, had a dream about the blogosphere during the nap I really shouldn't have taken this afternoon. BTW, luh-hove the masthead! Eye catching!

PS I just showed my husband your new layout, he thinks we were separated at birth.
I have been spared the blogging dream, although I probably think about it more than I should.
You have a little buzz going on...

Oh my--I don't want to dream about blogging. It's bad enough I think about it ALL THE TIME. As soon as I look at my laptop, my husband rolls his eyes...
