Where I go to the RinkUnion and Boneschnitzel
I dreamed I was at the RinkUnion. For some reason, Christy was there with me, as was Chris from choir. We had this big old mansion we were renting, and the only thing we did there all day was play hide and seek. So we hid in closets, under beds... somehow South Park was connected to all this, but that's kind of hazy.
Eventually it turned out that was all a movie, and we weren't really playing hide and seek at the RinkUnion at all, but now it was time to go home. We were all standing outside the airport, and Christy and daniel78 and I were about ready to get on the same plane to go home. Sam came up to me and said, "I don't know if you and Daniel are together or anything, but I think you would make a really charming couple." Which kind of weirded me out. And then Daniel and I didn't even end up flying home on the same plane after all.
There's also a moment somewhere in here where Caitlin's home from New Zealand, and my stalker from last semester and I are taking her out to dinner. The only way to the restaurant is down this incredibly steep rocky path, but my stalker tells us it's faster to walk directly ON the rocks and not on the path. I discover this is true, because the rocks are covered with "heather" and I discover I can skate down the heather and get to the bottom faster.
Next thing I know, I'm going to the Sauk play again. I buy two student tickets, planning to take my sister, but somehow she gets left behind when I leave the house, so now I've got an extra ticket. Christy's wandering around there, so I try to take her with me. Rina from kids' lit is running the tickets, but she's doing a really sloppy job with the whole thing. Christy and I go in, sit down, and halfway through the play I have to leave, so I get up and leave.
The next night I feel bad that I didn't get to see the whole thing, so I go back and buy two MORE student tickets (only now they're red because they're a different price). I actually end up cheating Rina as she's sorting her money and tell her that I've already given her my money, when really I haven't given her anything at all. So she gives me the tickets, and I realize I was going to ask Staci from drama to come to the play with me, but I forgot her at home, too. She's wandering around and I try to get her to come see it, but she's already got her own tickets with her own friends.
As I get ready to go inside the theater, Jason is standing outside the theater giving a lecture to those going in - almost like a tour guide thing, actually - about a man named Gavin Gmail (yeah, like the email service) who had to use his cell phone in the middle of the play. "His grandmother was dying," Jason says. "Of course, that gives him no excuse, but still, it was nice of him to tell me." Then he ushers us on in, but once again I have to leave in the middle of the show, with a very sad realization that I will probably never see the end again.

Where I flunk Creative Writing and interview Norbert
I dreamed I was an hour late to my Creative Writing final (which isn't really a final at all, we're just folding and stapling the litmag) so I just didn't show up. Then I went to my instructor's house to ask her if there was anything I could do to make up for it. She said, "No, I'm sorry, if you miss the final, you flunk the class. Sorry, there's nothing I can do. It's a rule." I thought she was going to be really ticked at me, but she was very pleasant about it.
Then Christy showed up at my house and told me she had an opportunity to interview Norbert and did I want to come along? I said of course I did, but when we got to his house, he was like a drunken mess and just kept talking about weird random stuff. I got scared and left.

Where Christy's parents are mad at me
I dreamed that Christy's parents suddenly got really, really mad at me for something, although I didn't know what. I couldn't reason with them, so Mom and Dad decided to take them out to dinner and try to talk sense into them. I waited eagerly for Mom and Dad to get home, but when they did, they were storming around. They had a styrofoam box full of leftovers, and were throwing them all over the place. "Those people are just entirely unreasonable!" my mom said. "So we stole their food."

Where we go to ComedySportz and I put on pants
I dreamed that the youth group was going back up to see the ComedySportz people again. On the way up, I was in the church bus, but the benches were placed like... RANDOMLY. None of them lined up or anything, which bugged me a lot. Anyway, I was sitting in one seat and Christie was across from me and suddenly I started like swaying all over the place, and my seatbelt kept giving me more and more room until I realized that one side of the seatbelt wasn't attached to the seat anymore and I was like... floating around the room. So I started looking around to find a place to sit, but all the seats were taken or suddenly disappeared, except for this one seat was backwards. So I sat in that.
We arrived at the ComedySportz place and parked somewhere, at which point Christie said I needed to put these pants on. ("Well, I guess I'll just... put these pants on... oh, man! It's the Thnikkaman!" anyways...) So I put them on but I was wearing a skirt underneath and MAN did that look stupid. LOL. So I go outside and realize this looks really stupid, and on top of that we have to walk through this.... MOAT or something that separates us from the building. So, yeah, we wade through this waist-deep water and finally get there. I make a comment about how stupid the pants-over-the-skirt looks so I take the pants off and TA-DA! my skirt is DRY because the PANTS got wet instead! Looks like Christie's idea wasn't so bad after all...
So we go on into the building except for some reason people keep looking for the kitchen so they can get cookies or something. I go in and sit down at one of the tables. Suddenly my dad and Canaan show up and they're both eating these pieces of paper that I had with me. I remember being ticked that they were devouring my to-do lists.
Then the improv people came out and man, were they boring. They all had fake names, too. Like one of the girls was named "Sunset Boilavahd" (LOL, that's how they pronounced it anyway). And the ref was really boring. His name was Stan King and he was like, "Erm.... uh... yeah... let's, uh... I guess you should meet 'em, huh? Um... okay..." I remember thinking, "This is really sad."
