Unbelievably Boring

Glass Elevators

I had another dream about elevators early this morning. In my dream, I was waiting for an elevator with someone who was presumably my boyfriend. I boarded the glass elevator, which was just big enough for two people. There was already someone on the elevator, and I said, "I left my buddy." Even as I said it I wondered why I did not say boyfriend.

So this stranger and myself were riding on the elevator. I said that I had to go back, and he said that he was going to a different floor. So he stepped off the glass elevator for two, and onto another, smaller glass elevator. This one was just big enough for one person, if that person stooped a little because it was about 5 feet tall.

I realized that our elevators were connected by a cable, so when one went up, the other went down at the same rate. I could see everything from inside my little glass elevator, and tried to make it descend to the correct floor without dropping and smashing. I was also afraid that the other elevator would rise too quickly and hit the ceiling.

Well that was pretty much it for my scary elevator dream. Just before I woke, I also dreampt that I looked at the clock which read 11:15. I was late for work! I scrambled to the computer to send an email to my boss when I found he had already written to me. His email read, "it's ok that you are working from home today but next time send an email out first letting us know."

"Phew," I thought. I was off the hook. He thought that I was working all morning. Then I woke up for real, and it was 6:30 a.m. and I had ample time to get to work if I would just get out of bed. Grrr.... I wanted to sleep in.
