Sandman

"You were in my dream last night!"

I bet I hear this at least once a week. I am some kind of weird dream whore that goes from person to person and sneaks into their dreams. Like an out-of-work actor that ends up being an extra in every movie to come out during one summer.

And I can't help but think how creepy it is.

I mean THAT many people dream about me?

I am a WEIRDO.

Seriously. It isn't their fault they dream about me - if we could control dreams I would have that one where I defeat the zombie army led by a zombie Rip Torn and save Marissa Miller from certain death. Then we do it.

But no, we don't control our dreams.

Which must mean I do JUST enough weird things to be top-of-mind for people when they go to bed.

Like they lay down and try to rehash a conversation we had and try to figure out why I spent 15 minutes talking about bears. Or read this blog and think to themselves, "Well, THAT guy is going to jail at some point in his life."

And I have no idea how to correct this. I think I am destined for a life as the Sandman. Maybe someday I will find a way to not be a huge creepball. Maybe someday I will quit sneaking into people's brains while they are sleeping and do random and anti-climatic things in their dreams.

Or maybe I'll forever be a creep.

Hey, a boy can dream, right?

i think being a dream whore is probably some sort of calling.

I believe in reincarnation. So, maybe you ARE the sandman, from like 1000 years ago.

Since you are, I think you should tell us what the hell the crap is you put in our eyes? And why is it sometimes hard and sometimes gooey?

I dreamt about Drew Carrey once, that counts as dreaming of you right?

I suppose that explains why sometimes I wake up screaming.

I had a dream about you once. You were the wolf man and tried to kill me. You did not succeed.

Maybe next time we could just hang out or something? I prefer to stay alive. Thanks.

I can't decide if it's cool or creepy that people dream about you and that I'm one of those people. You should make a post of all the dreams.

You're saying that you're the stuff dreams are made of?

And your sad about this?

Dude, if my handsomeness caused people to constantly dream about me (which it totally does), I would(am) be proud of that shiz.

I would be a total dreamwhore.

But only in chicks dreams.

I don't do the dream gayness.
