To All,
> Wow! I'm not the only Brick Dreamer im the world!
I think my weirdest dream was when I was working at my old job, at AEI, and
I went to TRU during lunch to check on some LEGO items. I got there (The
weird thing was, I thought I was at work, it was so normal) and they had a
special clearance aisle, near the back of the store. I went, and I saw a ton
of huge metal crates, filled with LEGO. Looks like a ton of returned sets or
something. They had the TRU big bags that said, 1 Bag = 20.00!!! So I went
to the front, grabbed a cart, and came back. It changed somehow, and now the
crates were in the LEGO aisle, and there were many half built sets,
everything from Space to Castle to town on the shelves. I started dumping
sets I wanted in carefully (Didn't want to lose any pieces) I heard, "May I
help you?"
I turned around, and my mom was there. She was in the older apron TRU
uniform, and she didn't seem to recognize me. Then I knew something was
wrong and I woke up.
That was my weirdest LEGO dream, I have had others. : )
