The room was so big, we had two toilets &#8211; except one wasn&#8217;t hooked up and functioned more has a heavy ceramic bedpan.   My room-mate had filled it with water and then used it  &#8211; and then left it behind when he left the room.   I was about to dump it into the other toilet when a neighbor walked in and poured the contents of the toilet on the floor.   I grabbed him by the front of his shirt and &#8211; displaying more violence than I actually get to do in real life &#8211; I shoved him out the door while swearing profusely.  <\/p>\n<p>In the seconds it took to get him outside the dorm room, two things happened.   One, he managed to tear my shirt and scratch me &#8211; resulting me being literally covered in my own blood from an injury I couldn&#8217;t even feel.   And two, the police showed up along with the hall manager who then prompted arrested the toilet spiller and from their tone &#8211; sent him straight away to a gas chamber somewhere.<\/p>\n<p>As a result &#8211; I&#8217;m suddenly a hero with a bloody shirt and my stupid former co-worker room-mate and I get a room upgrade.   A crowd of well-wishers were called in to move all our stuff to an even bigger room with windows and two working toilets.   Apparently, the room had been set up as a reality show, but it was decided that it would be a poor idea to actually turn them on.  Or so we were told.   The hall manger presented me with a new shirt, filled out all the room-change paper work and bought my books for the semester &#8211; and sent for a doctor to take care of that nasty scratch that was finally pointed out to me.<\/p>\n<p>All in all &#8211; a good dream, I guess, other than the odd focus on toilets.<\/p>\n<p>that&#8217;s it for now&#8230; later&#8230;.<\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img width='1' height='1' src='https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/7938355-117272011590441829?l=approximatelyequalto.blogspot.com' alt='' \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night &#8211; or rather earlier this morning &#8211; I dreamed that I was back in college, sharing a gigantic dorm room with a former co-worker.
