Acting on a Dream, part 3

I’ve written a couple of times before about acting on something in real life based on a dream that you’ve had. It happened to me again this weekend.

I had a dream that somebody stole my wallet from me. Most of the dream was me trying to get it back, which I was unable to do. When I woke up, my eyes shot open and the very first thought in my head was, “Man… my USB drive is in my wallet. I’ve got to encrypt that thing.”

And yesterday, that’s what I did.

Thank you, subconscious, for shocking me into action. Now, if my wallet gets stolen, I won’t have to worry about any of my trade secrets being sold to the competition. And our military plans won’t be sold to the Russians. Phew.

Last night I dreamed that I broke into a mansion and Tom Cruise ordered the monster in the basement to eat me. (Seriously.)

So, I will act on that dream by not breaking into Tom Cruise’s house.

Was the monster a Scientologist, too?

That I do not know, but I would suspect as much.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
