Weird Radiation
There must have been some weird radiation affecting Des Moines last night because Ryan is the 4th person I know of who had a strange dream. Stef and her roommate both had strange dreams and so did I.

The first thing I remember is being in my car and waiting for other people to get in. I close the door and the next thing I know there's a cop standing outside the window. It's daytime and I have a car full of people. I don't know who they are but they're all sitting quietly around me.

The cop asks me some questions and I'm unable to answer. Then he asks me to step out of the car, so I do and he gives me a breath test. I fail and he writes me a ticket.

Then I'm driving down the freeway with these people and I'm running into all kinds of stuff. I'm hitting cones and curbs and all manner of debris. So I get pulled over again. This cop doesn't even ask me to get out of the car. He just tells me that he's charging me with OWI, hands me a ticket and leaves.

The next thing I remember is driving the car down a steep hill and turning really sharply onto an offramp. When I get to the bottom of the offramp I notice that there's a cop behind me and he just turned on his lights. I'm thinking, "Shit, I already have two fines for OWI! I can't afford another one." So I try to outrun him.

All of a sudden there's a huge traffic jam in front of me!

My fear of another ticket outweights my fear of the traffic jam and I try to drive around the cars. The problem is that there is no shoulder for me to go around on. About two feet from the side of the road is a concrete barrier. I decide to go for it anyway. I start to muscle my way through and suddenly I'm on a motorcycle. Now I'm flying down the side of the road. (I have no clue what happened to my mysterious passengers.)

Unfortunately the space gets a little tight even for the motorcycle and I start to clip the cars. Whenever I hit a car with my motorcycle, the car buckles like its made of thin plastic.

The cop eventually catches me and gives me yet another ticket for OWI. And then he lets me go and I wake up.

...or do I.

I wake up in a house I don't recognize. Ryan is there with some of the guys from Melrose-- mostly my brother's friends. Dave shows up and tells Ryan and I that Kasey is coming over to visit. All of my brother's friends are really drunk and I'm freaking out because I don't want Kasey to think I'm (still) an alcoholic so I try to hide them.

Ryan calls Heather because he thinks she'll want to see Kasey too.

Kasey and Heather arrive just as I finish stuffing all of Jay's friends in the closet and telling them to be quiet. Kasey walks in and begins cooking.

Jay's friends smell food and all come out of the closet. They all go up to Kasey and put their arms around her and tell her that they want food cause they're drunk. Kasey laughs and gives them food. So everything seems cool.

So I start talking to Kasey and I tell her that I had the weirdest dream last night where I got three OWIs. I tell her, "It's a good thing that wasn't real, cause it would be expensive." She agrees.

She then proceeds to take me on a car ride to China.

Jay's friends come too.

We stop at a bar on the way and Jay's friends are stumbling all over the place. The people in the bar are all asian and none of them speak English so we start to feel unwelcome. A couple of Jay's friends get fed up and take Kasey into one of the back rooms with them. The room is totally blue with a soft blue lighting. Kasey wants me to introduce her to Jay's friends but I can't remember which one is Justin and which one is Stephen.

Then I woke up.

That's the first time I've ever had a dream within a dream. Very strange.
