DREAM
I was on board this airplane ship thing. I think we were secret agents, or something, because we were on this mission, and succeeded! So we were all happy together afterwards, waiting to land. I was talking to this old lady, asking her if she was the voodoo lady from Ernest Scared Stupid. I think she was, she just didn't want to admit it.
Then I caught up with Liz, and the plane started descending down into the streets of Chicago. It must have turned into a bus, I guess, because we were driving through downtown. Liz and I saw this older-looking man, really tall and skinny, wearing a red tracksuit, laying down in the gutter. We thought, Isn't that a shame? He's laying right in all this snow. But as we pass him, we see he's wearing this huge watch and other sorts of jewelry, and he's got a lot of stuff with him, and not just in plastic bags. Then we see man begging for change with a cup, and this red tracksuit guy gives this other guy change. Well, then Liz and I get off the bus, and start walking to O'Hare to go to our respective homes. We go to the bathroom halfway in between, and Aunt Diane calls me on my cell phone. I guess she was just bored at work, because neither of us had any thing to say. Liz and I keep walking. Then I notice: I don't have my backpack! I know I took it off the bus. We start walking back the way we came, and oh! There it is! In the street. I run up to it, see a car coming, think Please don't run over my backpack, and the car does just that. But by the time I get up to it, I see it's not my backpack, but rather the glowing sign that Pizza Hut delivery guys put on top of their cars. And THEN I remember that we had gone to the bathroom, so I start walking in that direction.
Then I woke up.
