So I had this dream and on this rare occasion I actually remembered it, and that’s probably because it woke me up.
I was going to get something to eat and I must have been out of town because I was in a rental car and not my truck.
Anyway I'm in a mall (this has to be a dream). I parked the car and the next thing I know I have a sandwich in front of me except the sandwich wasn't made, it had the bread in the middle and some ham in front and some other stuff around the sides, all in a Styrofoam to go plate with a lid and the French fries are stacked up in a criss-cross pattern like a Jenga game.
So I’m walking through the restaurant looking for a seat when almost everybody I pass in the place starts grabbing food off of my plate, and they are saying stuff like “Oh I had that sandwich last week and it was great” and then they help themselves to my food.
(another reason this has to be a dream) because there is no way I would let anybody touch food on my plate without a fight, especially strangers!
So now I am on my way to the parking lot when I see my car drive by, well I don’t know what kinda car it was but I pointed the remote at it, pushed a button and the car pulled over and stopped.
I ran over to the car and there was a guy behind the wheel and a woman in the passenger seat and a young man in the backseat. I pulled the door open and said get the $#@! Out of my car, and then pulled the guy behind wheel out, the other two got out on their own.
I got in the car and drove off because I need something from Home Depot but I don’t have any idea what it is, and that’s when I thought, I better take a look and make sure all my stuff is still in the car, so turned around and looked in the back seat and there it was plain as day, a baseball glove, a bat, a ball and a hat that has MAC on it which I know means Mecklenburg Athletic Club. This is bad, very bad, I looked in the little consol box under my right elbow and there was a set of house keys and a map of Minnesota, this is very, very bad, This is not my car!
So I think as soon as I get back from Home Depot (yep still going), I’m going to return this car and apologize like nobody’s business, and that’s when I saw the school bus!
It had come around the corner too fast and was up on two wheels and then fell over and rolled down this huge hill, I pulled over and ran down the hill to see if anyone was hurt. When I got there it was empty, no passengers, no driver, nothing. I thought how did this happen, where did it come from... and then I heard this noise, it was a familiar noise, it sounded just like a gray rental car rolling down a hill with baseball gear flying out the windows, in retrospect I don't know why I thought this sound was familiar, but sure enough that’s what it was, it rolled over and over and over until came to rest right on top of the school bus.
When the cops got there the first thing the cop said was, is this your car?
I had an instant panic attack because just a little while ago I jacked this car (by accident) from a couple and their kid, so I had to calm myself down and take a deep breath before I could look that cop in the eye and say
“I've never seen this car before in my life”
.. And then I woke up…
