And weird, which I suppose goes without saying. Anyhow…

I’m in a department store, like Target, or maybe Meijer (I don’t recall if it had a food section or not), with a female coworker. She is blond, long hair, no one I know, and never really does much in the dream. The dream is at least partially in color, as I remember that she was wearing a red shirt.

It’s before opening and we are walking near a wall that is lined with large, deep cubby holes about 10 feet high, presumably for storage though most are empty. We hear a noise from one of them. I crouch down to look into the cubby hole and I see the dismembered body of one of my coworkers (whom I happen to like, just for the record), and in fact the lower part of the torso is gone too. He’s alive, but not able to talk, doesn’t appear to be in much pain, just stuck in the cubby hole. He’s very grey, the arm and torso stumps are bloody, but it’s mostly dried.

I walk further along the wall, the girl is no longer with me. I find another dismembered body, of the same person (like I said, weird), this one has a complete torso and retaining the ability to talk. I don’t recall what he said, it was not much though.

At this point I decide I need to get my coworker’s bodies out so he can be helped. So, I run toward the customer service desk (heh) thinking that they’ll have some blankets in which to wrap him. For some reason, in my mind they’ll be those little blue blankets you get on airplanes. My running becomes very detached while I’m thinking – that detached dreamlike feeling you get sometimes but are still completely awake.

As I reach the customer service desk, which is staffed (apparently the store opened at some point), I wake up.
