Falling asleep at the grocery store

When I fall asleep there is a moment of conscious thought mixed with dreamy uncontrollable streaming. Lately, I've ended up in the grocery store during this haze. Often, I'm shopping with someone and having an intense conversation. Or I run into someone that I know and they join me in wandering the aisles to pick up the 5 regular items which sum up my normal grocery list. During these trips I generally fall asleep, so, though the conversations are intense (or I feel like they are) they are not so intense as to keep me awake. Anyway, I do not remember the last time I went to the grocery store even for my regular items. ( I think last time the regular items varied in that I purchased goat cheese instead of Colby cheese. And I purchased plums as the fruit item which hasn't been the fruit purchase for some time. Really, I can't remember the last time I purchased plums, but they are really tasty with goat cheese.) (Yes, I did discover this randomly. I was in Hays and a girl who was going to Morocco was copying a bunch of music from a guy who I hadn't ever met until that evening, but he served various cheeses and plums.) So, I guess I was just wondering if everybody has these hazy non-dreams. What are your hazy non-dreams?
