Where we run out of water and go into spider caves to get some
I had a dream that me and some other people were exploring out in the woods (uh, yeah, I'm a real woodsy person) and we found this stream with water in it and were going to take some back with us, but we had milk jugs full of water so we didn't bother.
Turns out we should have, because the next day was so hot that all the streams and rivers in IL dried up, and there was a huge drought. So that evening Mom wanted us all to sleep together in the living room, she thought that would be safer for some reason, and at one point she said something about giving us water in the morning. But Dad just snorted and said, "IF we have water in the morning!"
So that night I snuck out in search of that stream, and I took the people who were with me before (some guy and some girl) and along the way we found this scientist guy and invited him with us. We got to the stream and there was like this huge cavern and so we were rappelling down the side of the cavern, and the scientist went ahead and got eaten by giant spiders.
Then the spiders took me and my two friends and imprisoned us on this staircase right next to the cavern which, when I looked closer, was really a set of stairs going downwards. When the spiders weren't looking, I'd sneak down into the cavern, and I convinced my friends to do the same thing, to escape. So we were sneaking down into the cavern and for some reason we had this giant pair of sneakers with us, and they fell off and went into the cavern, and my friends fell down into the cavern, too.

Where I watch Toy Story in Spanish
I had a dream that I was watching Toy Story in Spanish, except they changed some of the names to be more Spanish. Sid became "Shid" (uh, yeah, with a D, although it was an unfortunate choice and often sounded like it was with a T) and Midville, which was apparently the town they lived in, became "Lidville."

With Mrs. Medved's Head
I had a dream that Sarah L. recommended this movie to me called "Mrs. Medved's Head." She said it was a really scary movie, so I rented it and it started out with this little kid walking into a haunted house where a severed head sat on a shelf. The head was alive, though, and this invisible ghost guy would whisper things to the head and make her say it, except mostly he made her spell it out. He would say, "Say bed," and she'd go, "B-E-D."
So he says to her, "Say DC." And she went, "D-C. D-C. D-C-T. DC Talk. I need to talk to dc Talk." (LOL... took it a bit further than the guy needed her to.) So the little kid asked, "Why do you need to talk to dc Talk?" and they struck up a friendship, the little kid and (presumably) Mrs. Medved's head.
Somewhere along the way he became like her slave or something and she turned him into an ice kid, but she took away his legs and he just floated along. Then someone killed Mrs. Medved's head (how, I'm not sure) and we realized that this kid could never go back to normal life because he was a frozen metal kid who had no legs, and as it got warmer his skin would crack and fall off. He was sitting on Mom's lap and we were all crying because it was so sad that this kid was just going to die.

Where I accidentally cut off Bethany's foot
I had a dream that I was with Bethany on the couch and she suddenly saw that our neighbor Mr. P. was outside in his garden and she was going to go talk to him. But I was bored so when she got up I just shoved her back down on the couch cuz I was being goofy. Then Mr. P. went back inside and Bethany burst into tears. I was like, "Sheesh, chill out, it's just Mr. P., you can talk to him whenever," and she was like, "No, my foot!" and she held out her right leg and the foot below the ankle was just...gone. Somehow I had cut off her foot while I shoved her on the couch.

Where Libby gets married
I had a dream that Libby and I were talking to some other girl and Libby suddenly said, "Oh, I married someone yesterday!" Then she turned to me and was like, "I hope you don't mind if I share this..." *shrug* Not like I cared. I mean it was HER business that she got married, why should *I* object?

Where Micah gets scared of The Sound of Music
I dreamed that we were watching The Sound of Music, and when we got to the "Sixteen Going On Seventeen" song, Micah started crying and said, "I'm scared! Can we fast forward?" And I asked him how far he wanted us to fast forward, and he said, "Until the movie's over." I told him he couldn't do that, and he got mad at me.

Where Captain Hook is chasing me
I dreamed that I was Spider-Man... or some super hero... I think it was a guy, and I was being chased by Captain Hook and all sorts of other bad guys. No matter where I ran, how far, how fast, how sneaky I was about it, I would always look back and see him following behind me. I remember climbing up curtains and jumping out windows and even crashing trucks to get away from this guy, but he just kept following me. At some point there was a girl who was trying to protect me (except half of the time I was her too so it was confusing) but she just ended up getting chased by Captain Hook too. Freaky.

Where we do the play with the hot air balloons and "hoobles"
I had a dream that we were doing our big production with the drama team, except it was like half-musical and nobody but me showed up for the first act. So Jayme was really ticked and had to take over the first act pretty much herself.
Then it was the second act and a bunch of other people showed up to be in it, including people who aren't in the drama team (like Jennifer from M-ville) and people who aren't even in the church (like Kay from my first semester of Spanish class). The finale of the second act was us holding this giant net above everybody's heads, and the net had hot air balloons painted on it, and it looked like there were hot air balloons above everyone's heads. We would pick up the net and it would sort of hoist itself up in the air.
So I was hanging around with Amanda and Kay and Jennifer, when I decided to go through and untie all these plastic hoops from the net. There were a bunch of plastic hoops tied onto the ropes at the edge of the net, and I decided they shouldn't be there, so I went through the first half of the net untying them while Rach(a?)el S. was singing on stage. Then Jayme walked past us yelling, "HOLD ON TO THE HOOBLES! HOLD ON TO THE HOOBLES!" And I realized that all the hoops were SUPPOSED to be on the ropes. So I, being the responsible person I was, ran off and decided to talk with other drama people outside.
Then it was almost time for us to go onstage, but we still had a few more minutes. We were all standing outside the church holding onto the net. And Jennifer said, "I can't WAIT until I get the Internet. Just think... I'll be free!" And I said, "That's what I thought." (??) And somebody next to me (it was a guy, but I can't remember who it was... might have been Canaan) said, "OH! I thought we all had to go around and share stories." And I was like, "Uh, yeah, HAPPY THOUGHTS TIME!" (Um... yes, this DID make sense in the dream.)
So then I decided I had time to mess around for a bit before I had to go onstage, so I ran around the church. I realized when I was at the opposite end of the net that we were about to start, and I panicked and ran back around the church back to where I started from, just in time to pick up the net and march in with everyone else. So we got the net up in the air and everybody was ooh-ing and aah-ing over the lovely hot air balloons.
