With Steak 'n' Shake, chili milkshakes, and the lady with the pink feather boa
I had one of those long involved dreams where EVERYONE is in it. I remember being in a car with Katie, sitting in the passenger seat. She was driving me and a couple girls somewhere, and the guys were following in a car behind us. Except there really weren't any other girls in the van, but Tim (well he's her brother so I guess that makes sense in sort of a dream way that she has to drive him wherever we're going) and Ethan were both there and complaining about this school parade they were in together. (Although considering one's at SHS and one's at...er, whatever middle school is in Milledgeville, that's rather unlikely that they'd be in a school parade together.) Apparently some gym teacher, a Mr. someone-or-other, was notorious for doing cheesy things at these parades.
The girls (or...er, what was supposed to be the girls' car anyway) arrived at our destination and the guys were there already and very irate, because we didn't wait for them at some place. "You were supposed to wait!" they kept saying. "And we were waiting for you to wait!"
The other bits I remember is us all being in the van on our way home from a missions trip (see, it's that missions trip coming back to haunt me again) and PJ stopped off at a McDonald's for people to go in and eat. I somehow magically transported a strawberry milkshake (ew) from Steak & Shake across the street into the seat next to me. As soon as I got it, however, I realized I didn't really like strawberry and much preferred chocolate. Then PJ and the rest of the peoples showed up and PJ said, "I forgot to mention you guys could go across to Steak & Shake if you wanted!" Then he started up the van and said, "Yeah...I had about 20 of those shakes last night...yum!"
Then we were in the church basement talking and Melanie had a can of 7-Up and she and Bethany were mixing it with her milkshake (sort of like a root beer float I suppose except a 7-Up float) and they were all amazed by how the ice cream settled to the bottom and the 7-Up stayed up at the top. Nich pointed out that he and Jayme usually put chili in between the layers of ice cream and 7-Up, and everyone responded appropriately: "Ew!!!"
Then we were in the church basement but it was really an airplane, and this really goofy-looking lady walks in with like a feather boa and a stupid hat on. She goes up to the front row, removes Andie's baby seat from a chair, and seats herself there and says with this really goofy voice, "I think I'll sit here." Paula apparently got really ticked off about that, and stood up and gave this long speech about how she was "Imammitating" us. In my dream this did have a significance, it was a messed-up prounciation of the word "Imitating" and she really meant more along the lines of "Corrupting." Yes, confusing. But yeah, and she was yelling at the woman for having a top cut too low (but it really WASN'T - it was perfectly acceptable!) and said in disgust, "Look at that! Blood running everywhere!"
Yeah... wow...
