Kurt’s Blog: Well, Now I’m Just Dreaming of Food

Alright, I’m one of those people that don’t normally remember their dreams…but the one last night threw me for a loop.

I dreamed that I was eating Oreos.

That was it.

I wasn’t rescuing Oreos from a band of pirates…I wasn’t doing anything fun with them…I was just sitting…at a table…dunking Oreos in milk…and eating them. Then I would eat more…and then more …and then more.

Here’s what it might have looked like:

Very fattering…I mean flattering.

I consulted “Dream Meaning” websites to find out what this could mean…

  • To dream that you are eating, giving, receiving, or stealing cookies indicate that you are letting trivial matters and minor problems annoy you.
  • To see or eat chocolate chip cookies symbolizes your guilty indulgences. If you are baking chocolate chip cookies, then it represents your connection to someone in an intimate and emotional way.
  • To dream that you are eating an oatmeal cookie suggests that it is okay to indulge once in a while.

Nothing on Oreos. What weirdo is eating oatmeal cookies in their dream? Oreos…always Oreos.

On the plus side…there was no Cookie Monster in my dream…

  • To see Cookie Monster in your dream indicates that you need to eat more healthier and have a more balanced diet. Alternatively, the dream means that you need to show restraint and control.

So, I’ve got that going for me…no Cookie Monster = no need to show restraint. Eat the whole bag…and continue with my current unbalanced diet.

Dreams of winning the lottery…being the starting shortstop for the Cubs when they win the World Series…running a beachside resort (ala Mr. Carosi from Saved by the Bell)…those dreams…all quashed. Instead, I’m dreaming of Oreos.

To answer your question…yes…when I woke up at 3:33 this morning, I did grab a handful of Oreos for the drive to work. Hey, it’s a long drive from Urbandale to Downtown.

AWESOME is as AWESOME does!
