Am I after something crazy to happen?

I'm wondering if I have some hidden wish to be robbed.

I'm having dreams of work. Bit of a boring job really - in an office dealing with monies. Both dreams felt so real - like it really happened. In last night's dream, I was working.

My colleague left a little early for our break - she didn't want to wait for me and seemed a bit irritated. So I finished off what I was doing and was about the leave.......when I saw two faces peering through the small window where money is usually moved in and out of the office. That freaked me out a little. They didn't see me but I could see them breaking the window. At that time I was in between two set of doors that lead in and out of the office.

I pressed the panic alarm and wondered if it was working. I looked back and they were climbing through the window. One man and one woman. The man was caucasian and looked in his late forties or early fifties. The woman was black and was a bit large in size, around her thirties. The images of what they looked like was so vivid. She had a little difficulty trying to get in and he gave her a helping hand. She seemed very capable as soon as she was in, like she knew what she was doing. Jumping up on her feet, she moved around the office....searching, and looking around.

I got a creepy vibe from the man. I pressed the panic alarm again but I still wasn't sure if anyone was coming. I quietly crept through the other doors, trying so hard not to make any sound. The man came towards the doors - it was as if he knew something was up - like I was there. His eyes darted through the other window which I was peering through before when I saw them come in. He had a very creepy crazy look about him.

I went and tried to hide somewhere. Anywhere. I could hear him saying "burglar, burglar, burglar" in a repetitive way. He was like the joker - just saying that one word over and over again in a sing-song. My heart was caught somewhere in my throat. Where could I hide so I wouldn't be found?

I woke up then. But his sing-song voice stayed in my head.

That was one uncomfortable dream.

My other previous dream was something similar but the people breaking in were like expert ninjas. They must have heard me come through the doors of the office and they all froze. I froze too and slowly backed out. Ran off to find security. They were gone by the time I returned.

I don't know. Maybe I'm just waiting for the day something crazy would happen.

Fishie fishie, in the sea

I'm having a grand time with beaches lately. I visited Bournemouth two days ago with a couple of friends where we built a big hole in the sand hoping to "dig our way to China". Obviously China never happened but the hole....well, we were pretty proud of it. We even leapt over it in glee.

Today I went Brighton with family. The boys wanted to do a bit of fishing since it's been a while since the last time. They were more successful this time round and caught over 35 mackerels. As far as I know, they're still going it as I'm getting ready for bed. My brother said - "...One was crying wen I dehooked it.. soo cute" That made me think he was the cute one.

So I've fishnapped 14 of their caught fish and stored them in my freezer for dinner time. Woo! Can't wait. I do love my fish!

Pay to snooze?

Hah! I just heard that someone created an alarm clock where if you press the snooze button, it sends a certain amount of money from your bank account to charity. Nice thought but I definitely wouldn't want to try this out. By the time I fully wake up, I'd be broke!

300 hats 300 caps

Half of the family went away on holiday while I remained behind. Work didn't allow me to go (tsk). I was home and a delivery man came with a huge box. I signed it without much thought. After a few moments, I had a little think. I never ordered anything. My sister would be the only one and her name was on it. I was curious to see what she might have ordered in a box so big. I messaged her telling her I was going to open it and peer in out of curiosity knowing she wouldn't mind.

To my surprise, there were 300 blue caps inside. Someone had ordered it for a marathon but it definitely wasn't us. I messaged my sister again and made a joke out of it. I don't think she took me seriously until she came home from her holiday. How many hats did she want to wear?

It took a very long time to resolve the problem and get it sent away. Apparently the sender had sent double the shipment but the one to our address was a mistake. Now, if only it were candy - no one would ever see that extra shipment ever again..............!

Just an update

I was looking forward to my run in the morning. I had planned my route and everything and even had an early night. Unfortunately, it decided to downpour at midnight waking me up and giving me an uneasy sleep.

My dreams were muddled up and I remember I was holidaying alone somewhere and ran into a random hotel room weeping. Someone came in and I told them to go away. I was in hysterics. He said it was his room and I shouldn't be there. The man gave me directions to my hotel and off I went to look for it. I somehow was lost again and couldn't find the hotel I was supposed to be staying at. I came across another gentleman. He worked at a different hotel and asked me why I hadn't chosen his hotel. It would have been better that way. I agreed but I was still so desperate to find my particular hotel. His kindness stood out. It's all I remember of it but looking back, it was quite an uncomfortable dream to have.

I awoke after 5pm, stuck my hand out the window, shivered, and crawled back to bed. I couldn't quite see whether it was raining or not as my eyes were all gluey but it sounded like light rain. I stayed in the warmth of my bed and decided I didn't want to catch a cold if I ran. I didn't have anything particular warm to run in. All I had was light gym stuff.

So today I had to run a few errands anyway. Bus would have been the lazy way out so I decided to speed walk and take that as my exercise for the day.

I have a lot of work today but boredom has been filling me the last couple of days. Makes me want to do nothing. I've been watching The Voice in China. I don't understand Mandarin but I get the odd phrases here and there. I feel like there's more going on than the one I've watched in the UK, plus the singers are far more talented.

Ugh boredom boredom. Any suggestions welcome. But I do have some anime I need to catch up on......I feel more lazy days are coming!
