I just had the craziest dream
I'm running through what appears to be an airport or train station. Everything is very dark and industrial looking. There are crowds of people that I'm fighting through to reach my destination. Then it hits me like Ike Turner, I need to use the bathroom...bad. My eyes dart around in search of the facilities. I follow these signs through a maze of hallways and people, and then I see the restroom door. The little man figure seems to be welcoming me in to the oasis of relief lying just behind the door. I burst through, and everything is full; there are lines 5 or 6 people deep at each "station." So run across the hall to the women's bathroom...same story, longer lines. Frantically, I run out; the feeling is growing exponentially worse. Just then I hear "Last Call for train 402" over the loud speaker...my train, I have to catch it. So I sprint to the tracks and leap at the last second to squeeze through the doors as they are closing. A brief moment of relief until I realize I still need to 'go.' There are no bathrooms on this train...the feeling is brewing inside of me, beads of sweat are running down my forehead. It's happening whether I want it to or not, so I pry the door open a little bit, hold it there with my foot, and let loose. I bellow a huge sigh of relief, the initial feeling is so good, I almost forget where I am. I look around and in slow motion I see the faces of the other passengers. Some were shocked, others appalled and mortified, In the distance a baby is crying; a woman is pointing and laughing (which I didn't appreciate.)
It's finally over. I let the door close and restore the situation down below. I turn around and see everyone just staring at me. I feel something in my back pocket that wasn't there before, so I pull it out. It's a packet of Mentos. I pop one out, and display the package to everyone on the train, then they all smile and laugh and give me the thumbs up. A voice from nowhere says "Mentos, the Freshmaker!"
The end.
I'm pretty glad that I'm not really aware of what's going on in my subconscious, otherwise it'd freak me out.

That's maybe the best dream in the world! Anything that calls to mind the brilliance of the Mentos ad campaign is top notch in my book!
Question...did your dream have the "do da do doooo do wahhhhhhhh" singing in the background?
Reading this blog is a great way to start the work week
leash- unfortunately there was no "do do wahhhh" theme song, although that would have been nice.
MJ-I woke up just in time to make it to the lou.
