In my dream last night I was watching TV and a new season of The Apprentice started, and I was surprised to find out that I was one of the contestants. I had no memory of competing or filming the episodes, but there I was on TV. I also noticed that on TV I was in much better shape than I actually am, and I was wearing a shirt that said MBA on it, so on TV I had already graduated. I then realized that somehow they had found a way to air episodes that were taped in the future, and it made me happy to know that I had finished grad school and was in good shape.

The theme of the new season was “Nicknames”; each contestant was known by a nickname that was assigned in the first episode. I’ve started to forget the details already, but my nickname was something like “Sweep”, but I don’t remember the significance of that. In the first task I somehow wound up assigned with picking up The Donald’s mexican grandmother, which now that I’m awake sounds absurd. It made sense at the time though. He was pleased that I picked her up in time, and I got to spend the day with him as a reward.
