Randon is one bad motha…

Hey! It’s dream-recounting time!

I dreamed that I was some sort of blogger (crazy, right? Me? Blogging? Insane.) and that I was writing a blog entry about how much I was getting screwed by my current employer, and how much better I’d have it if I was working at Criterion. I certainly wasn’t working at Kohl’s in this dream (as it was somewhere with a big campus and a movie theatre) and I have no idea why I was wanting to work at Criterion, or even, exactly, what Criterion is. I guess they put out movie collections of Wes Anderson’s work?

In any case, I wrote a detailed blog entry about why I should rather be working there. It was intense. I think it might have had video.

The next day, I went to work, at this place where I don’t work, and Randon, the Loss Prevention guy from Kohl’s, kept threatening me. He said I needed to take down my blog entry, or there would be hell to pay! I was telling him it was weird that he’s complaining now, because in dream time I apparently posted it weeks ago.
Eventually, this lead to a chase, where I was running away from Randon because he was going to beat the crap out of me in order to teach me a lesson. He finally caught up with me, and then I promised to take down the blog post.

I did, though I wrote a description of why it was taken down on the blog. The next day, Randon was giving me the evil eye, like I didn’t do enough.

Then I woke up.

That’s… odd.

For what it’s worth, Criterion does more than just Wes Anderson. They’ve pretty much cornered the market on “definitive” DVD collections. Usually there’s multiple discs, multiple commentaries, plus mini-documentaries, etc etc etc.

I’d probably be pretty cool to work for them, actually. But not if the hiring process involved being chased by crazed loss prevention guys.

Haha, wow, nice dream. Talk about freaky realistic future predictors?

Seriously though, don’t fuck with Randon. Even if it’s a dream, he’ll know about it in real life.
