Dreams of news and a TV cop show came together

Early this morning, I had a scary dream where I was going to be late for an early morning work shift.  I was afraid that I would over sleep, and I did. 

I was on my way to work, but instead of editing like I usually do, I was set to cover what I believed to be a crime story.  I was going to shoot and field edit video from a crime scene.  In there dream, there were two piles of money lying around.  For a while, I thought I was on the set of a TV crime drama. 

The work/TV crime drama was set somewhere near North Hollywood near where the 134 and 170 freeways meet. 

I had to edit/blur out some video that I was supposed to cut in order to make air on time.  Instead of using an AVID machine like I would usually use, I had to edit with a blurry screen covering a camera in order not to show some things nobody should see on TV.  Presumable, I had to avoid showing some of the gory parts of a crime scene near a couple of TV trucks. 

Along the way, I met with an engineer that I normally work with here at CBS46 in Atlanta.  He seemed calm, cool, and collected while I just stood somewhere clueless and didn't know what was going on.

In reality, I woke up from the dream and I woke up twice.  I got up a bit early at 1:15am and then I woke up for good at 1:26am.  I made it to work on time and early around 2:50am.  I'm about to go home for the day very soon. 

Let the rest of the day begin.
