Sort-of like being a spy

My night-long dream last night had me sneaking into darkened rooms, looking around sleathily, and tip-toeing up to the toasters I could find. I'd sneak in a bagel, hit the magic toast lever, and wait. Over and over again, just before the bagel popped, someone would come in and catch me. Instead of being angry about my toasting in the dark, they were always looking for me and would talk & walk with me out of the room. I'd go with, sadly looking over my shoulder at the popped-up toaster. I'd eventually get away but couldn't get back to my previously popped bagel and the sneaking would start again.

After waking, I wondered what symbolism my quest for a bagel had. The answer was: I want a bagel. I have a long history of very literal dreams, which makes it hard for me to talk with folks about hidden meanings and what symbols mean in their night-time adventures. Anyway. I'm going to go live my dream and toast a bagel...no matter who may wander in looking for me. LIVING THE DREAM!

An Erinku:
So early
So distracted
I seriously
seriously want a bagel
