You Know You're HP-Obsessed When...

[Jennifer Piersol]

<snip other OoP dreams>

Very weird, I had one recently, too.  I dreamt that I 
was walking past the huge display window of the 
bookstore in Century City Plaza (it's in Los Angeles), 
and the people inside were opening their boxes and 
setting out the book.  Nobody was noticing that it was 
2 weeks early!  So I went inside, sidled up to one of 
the workers, and said softly, "So... can I have one of 
those?"  He said, "Oh... sure... have to get the 
display up... here, take it and leave me alone."  No 
problem, dude... I snatched it and ran to the 
counter... where they were really busy and didn't seem 
to realize that I'd just handed them their doom... and 
as I walked out of the store with the book cradled in 
my arms, I thought, "I can't believe they're risking 
their ability to sell HP in the future by opening their 
boxes early!  This has got to be some kind of dream!"

And of course, that's when I woke up.

What a bummer.
