I went to a clothing store with a friend. We were in the used section or something. My friend was being loud. There were lots of other people there. I found a black bra with a cross middle, exactly the same kind as the old one. It was in my size too. I was shocked at how lucky that was. But I looked at the cross part and saw that it was broken just like the old one. I was going to buy it anyway and sew it, but a worker came up to me and I showed him where it was broken and he said “here, let me fix that.” So he took it and went to a backroom to sew it. When he came back, I saw that he'd sewn on this whole different front rather than just stitch the two ribbon things back together. He said something to me about what he'd changed. I looked and his sewing was really not good. It looked like it was just going to rip and fall apart again. I could already see the fabric tearing around the stitches.

I was at a movie theater watching a movie but it wasn't a movie theater per se, it was just a movie theater looking room with people seated in one direction on an incline with a big screen. I was chromecasting a movie from my phone. I think it was like a Disney movie or something, but it also kinda morphed into a Law and Order type show. I was with someone, maybe Abby. I didn't want to finish watching the movie, so I stopped screen-sharing it about halfway through. I felt bad doing this because there were other people there who were watching the movie. Specifically a guy who was sitting behind me to my left (both facing the same way). I felt bad about not letting him finish the movie. As I was leaving the theater, Anna C. (I think) stopped me and complimented me on my mask.

Dreampt I was with Kate. We were at this pop up ice cream store or maybe it was a permanent establishment. Actually I'm not sure if it was even an ice cream store. Something was going on, I really don't remember much... Jake and Owen left the establishment in a van and I wanted to be in the van also—to get away from some situation I was in over by the ice cream parlor.

I was on this gigantic, completely white mountain. It might've been described by people in the dream as a building though. Actually I think in the dream it was supposed to be thought of as a building. I don't know if it was man made or natural. I don't know what it was or how to really describe it. It was really steep. Mom said the slope was “16 degrees,” but it absolutely wasn't. It had to have been close to 90. It had prismatic cleavage type “steps” but they were randomly distributed so it wasn't like a staircase or anything.

I was with Mom, some random older man, and someone else. They were talking about some pertinent environmental issue (like depleting resources) related to the steepness of the building or to the “city” the building resided in. But there was nothing surrounding the building, it was very tall, you couldn't see the ground, and it was just blue sky all around. And I barely remember, but the discussion might've been something about how the white building had “overtaken” the entire city, like the city was entirely contained within the building, which was for some reason bad.

The sun was shining on the building, but only on part of it. And the location that the sun shined would change (like in real life obviously). I wanted to be in the sunlight, but the building was so steep and hard to climb. Instead of climbing, I would use this thing on my phone that first teleported me completely off the building, then teleported me back to the top. But then from the top I would have to climb down to the sunny part. And climbing down was almost scarier than climbing up. The steepness of the building really scared me.

We might've been in Russia. I remember looking out off the building into the distance many, many, many, many miles away and seeing a Russian guy walking back to his hut in the snow.

I'm at a restaurant for maybe Joey's birthday with Mom and two other people, probably Charlie and Julia. It's not an especially good restaurant, but it's all that's open. It's inside a strip mall I think. Across the hall from this restaurant is a Subway, but it's closed.

We're seated at the table and our food is there but Mom isn't. She's away from the table cleaning the restaurant or something. She's doing something away from the table. This is bothering me and making me sad because I was looking forward to eating dinner together. Also, I am getting impatient because we are going to have to wait a long time to leave now, since she still has a whole meal to eat. She comes back and I air these issues with her. Then we talk about where to get dessert. Joey recommends a good restaurant.

Then some guy starts telling a story about how when he was in college his fraternity (or just his friends or something) had some tradition that started when one of his friends was carrying a big thing of mango juice in their dorm and they tripped and dropped it and it got all over the carpet. And they sucked it out of the carpet and made this absolutely disgusting game day drink out of it where they would somehow absorb it in tampons and freeze them. The guy said his school was located in Colorado in an “abandoned canary mine town.”

Dreampt that my towel was moldy.

It was all these weird little dream vignettes. One of them was of these two guys playing a video game. One of the guys was showing the other a level that he'd built for the game. He said to him “I spent all night building this” or something along that line. It was like a Mario game kind of. The stage was like one of those big Super Smash Bros stages. All the characters fell onto this stage and the objective was to collect the most coins. I think they were working in pairs or teams.

Before he showed the stage, there was this long sequence (like a cutscene) where the characters were getting gathered up and they were falling from the sky and morphing. Like it started with a couple characters but as they fell they morphed into other characters. At the end there was only one character left who was still his original self, unchanged by the ordeal. It was after this that I saw the stage and the game actually being played.

The next vignette was about a kid who was obsessed with baseball and wanted to be a baseball player. Once he got relatively good, a girl in his class asked him if he would teach her. He said something to her like he'd teach her by the “hit” or something ridiculous like that so she said no. (Teach by the hit meaning charge her by the hit maybe?)

At the end, they were both adults together in a locker room. They were both pro baseball players. The guy had become one before the girl though. The girl had just become a pro. She asked the guy to pretend to be someone (like her aunt or something) and sign a credit card for her. I also vaguely remember them having a conversation about which new name she should choose for herself, because in being pro baseball players they had to choose new names for themselves or something.

Julia and I were in a Target or some department store that was closing. We tried to go out the front door but a worker had just locked it so he told us to go out the back. We went out the back and there was a staircase like a parking garage staircase. So we went up the staircase thinking we'd be leaving the building or going towards an exit. But at the top of the staircase there was nothing. It went nowhere. I saw the area we needed to get to but it was impossible to get there without doing dangerous stuff like climbing over railings and I was scared of falling.

There were other people in the same situation as us only on different staircases. The staircases were all in a line kind of and I could see them at the top of theirs from the top of mine. There was a platform we were supposed to get to, but it wasn't connected to the top of the staircase so we couldn't get to it. Unless we climbed over the railing onto precarious locations to get there. When I wasn't looking, Julia climbed over the railing and got onto this thing that led to the platform. I was shocked that she was up there. It was a ballsy move.

Eventually I figured out there was a small path you could walk on to get over to the platform. Like a small concrete path that bordered the wall and went off the staircase and onto the platform. We took the path onto the platform then went into a stairwell to go back to the main floor to finally leave.

There were little rooms at the turns of the stairs. They were separated from the stairwell by hanging sheets. Now I was with two other people, a girl and a guy. We peered into one of the rooms and saw a boy and girl making out. I apologized and closed the curtain. But the boy was shy and nervous about it so he came over to say something to us. I had to reassure him that we didn't care.

He let us into the room and we learned that he and the girl were on a first date and that it was an arranged thing by their church or something. A man who worked for the church walked into the room and started talking to the boy. The girlfriend, the girl I was with, and I went silent since there was a traditional vibe there and I felt the need to conform to gender roles. The man asked who I and the girl who I was with were. The boy said we were the dates of the guy we came in with. Or he said we were lesbians or something. The guy we were with told the worker man that he was from Ghana and he referred to me as “white girl.”

I was driving without my contacts in but on purpose. I was going to get food or something with Julia.

I was swimming with Julia and Dad in a tropical ocean. Besides us there were some other people too, but we weren't interacting or very close to each other in the water, they were just there too. We were going around this peninsula. We went past this area where we'd camped before, like there was a (dream) memory of camping there. But it was on someone else's property or something, so that was weird. There was a killer whale swimming near us for the longest time and it was scary.

Eventually we all swam or somehow got into this little enclosed area, a very small room with a pool, and no windows or anything. The pool was like a hot tub and it took up the entire floor of the room. It was pretty deep. The killer whale also entered the pool of the room. Everyone then got out of the pool and left, except for me and the whale. But I was heading out, standing near the staircase that led up and out of the room (I imagine the room was underground or something?)

Before I left I noticed that the pool was draining of water. And the room was now this red color. The orca was lying at the bottom of the pool flailing and dying. But it was no longer an orca, now it was a boy. I needed to get him water because I didn't want him to die (even though he was a human he was still dying of not having water, for whatever reason). So I was panicking and I spit on him, thinking that would somehow help.

Two boys came down the stairwell and I asked them if they needed to pee. I told them about the “orca” and begged them to pee on it (him?) Then I went to the surface and got buckets of water to bring back down. Like those ice cream tub buckets. No one was interested in saving him but me.

I had to help Spencer come up with something for a presentation he had to give which he was completely unprepared for. It was a presentation on something like a video from his youth. So he pulled up this Moomin video that I'd never seen (so I wouldn't be of much help). I said “oh, can it be any video from your youth?” and he said yes, so I suggested that he do it on a video that we all had just watched very recently, but I don't remember what that video was of.

I was standing in an aisle with Dad and Julia or Jordyn. We were looking at items that you could hang on a wall for decoration. There was this Hello Kitty one that was abstract and represented some abstract algebra idea only with Hello Kitty. There were some other ones too. We were making remarks on how pretty everything was. We said something about how Amy had this blown-glass sculpture hanging in her house, but it wasn't fundamentally like the sculptures that we were looking at. It belonged to some different category. Whatever these sculptures were was something really special.

Dad initially wasn't going to buy anything, but he changed his mind and said he wanted to get the abstract algebra Hello Kitty thing, but Amy had already gone to buy it—because earlier I'd told her that she should. For dad, I was going to go and try to get it back from her, so that he could buy it instead. But that didn't end up happening.

Then I was sitting on a couch, or in some area with some family and [name] and Jordyn. Jordyn was on the floor doing acrobatic things and was really flexible. [name] was sitting by me on the couch. He was holding me close—not in a way that was inappropriate at all, but it demonstrated that we were in a physically close-type relationship and I was worried about making my family uncomfortable with PDA. Even though there was literally no PDA, he just had his arm around me and similar small things like that.

I was in the computer room. Outside the window I saw a mushroom cloud explode in the distance. It was crazy and I remember telling Mom about it but she didn't seem phased. Next, it was Christmas time and we were walking outside. Mom, Julia, and I went past the [neighbor]'s house and I said Merry Christmas to G who was sitting by the window looking outside. Mom started talking to Mr. [neighbor] and it was like they were into each other. It was weird. Mr. [neighbor] said something about waking up at 4am for his job.

We were driving in the car to go to Burger King and Dad was in the passenger seat. I was really mad at him. I was arguing with him and it was immensely frustrating. He was leaning the seat back and stuff while Mom was clearly sitting in the seat behind him and not giving her any room and which was making me so angry. I was really yelling at him and being hateful. It was very frustrating.

He was wearing a grey beanie. I ripped the hat off his head and threw it out the window at the intersection where you take a left to leave the neighborhood. It wasn't dad whose hat I ripped off though, it was now Charlie sitting in the passenger seat. He got out of the car and got his hat then didn't get back in the car, he was going to just walk home. But it was really, really cold out and he'd die if he did. This worried me even though I was so mad at him.

Mom, Julia, and I continued to drive to Burger King after he left, we were going to get mini donuts which were like a special item they were selling for a limited time. We got there and Julia and I stood in line while Mom went back to try and find Charlie and drive him home before he froze to death. The line was long but it moved fast. When it was our turn to order, my phone started playing “Boogie Nights” and I couldn't turn it off. The ordering lady couldn't hear me over the song. We were ordering through a drive through type machine but we were indoors. The music wouldn't stop playing out of the phone no matter what I did, so I told Julia to bring it away from the table and she did.

We sat down and a worker girl brought over the donuts. She was being really kind and chatty and talking to me and Julia. Mom came back and she and the girl started talking. I thought maybe the girl was a former student of Mom's, so I said something about Mom teaching at [high school], thinking maybe the girl had gone there, but she said she went to [other high school], actually.

Then the conversation topic changed to hair and straightening hair and getting extensions. The girl said she was an only child, so she had hair extensions rather than straightening her hair. She said that she'd tried to help me straighten my hair before sometime in the past, but I didn't remember that. At the very end of the dream, Mom and the girl started singing “Do U lie?” by Prince. I said “I love that song” and they said “did you know it's actually an Elton John song?” And I said “no, it's definitely a Prince song first.”

I was exiting a mall through this store that was very busy. It sold weeb shit among other things. There were tons of people coming into the store, specifically girls who liked My Hero Academia or something. It was difficult to leave because of all the people coming in, but eventually I made it out.

Outside, I sat on a bench. A girl came out and sat on the bench by me. She was wearing this magenta puffy fur coat. She immediately started to be rude and annoy me; she was mocking me for being into something while she was into something else (think Reifag v. Asukafag type divisiveness). I was trying not to react so I asked her how old she was and she said she was 13. I told her she was too old to be acting that way and to cut it out. She didn't. At this point I didn't know what to do so I just got up and walked away. But she followed me, and I was really confused as to why she was so intent on bothering me, given that we were complete strangers. She followed me around this big mall or hotel type building. Somehow I got ahead of her to the point that she was out of my sight. Next thing I know, she'd been murdered. But I didn't see how or by who. It must have happened right after I'd lost her.

When her parents find out they are devastated. They work at a restaurant or something. Her dad reminds me of Nico from Below Deck. I walk into the kitchen of their restaurant and they have all their staff lined up around a table. The dad has a rifle pointed into the mouth of one of his employees and he's asking them if they killed his daughter. It was really a frightening scene. He looked so unhinged, I worried he'd actually kill one of his employees.

After he was convinced it wasn't that person who killed his daughter, he moved onto the next person and so on. I knew that I would get asked the question with the gun in my mouth too and I was very scared. When it came to be my turn I cried and told them everything about how she was annoying me and I didn't know what to do so I got up but she followed me. And I told them that once she'd told me she was 13, I felt jealous and weird because she looked so well put together and pretty and I couldn't believe she was so much younger than me yet so much more mature looking. This bit of honest information seemed to get them to believe that I wasn't her murderer.

I was with Dad sitting in a dark car in a parking lot. It was very late at night. We were parked in the lot of a small strip mall. Strangely, one of the stores in the mall still looked open. It had a sign that advertised the fact that it was playing “Fire Walk with Me" but it didn't look like a movie theater from the outside.

I was listening to music in headphones and I thought Dad was listening too, but he wasn't. He couldn't hear it, so I thought I must've looked strange bobbing my head and stuff. It was a song I really liked. After the song ended, I asked if we could go to the movie theater to see what it was all about.

We got out of the car and set our phones, wallets, etc. on the roof. We were going to just leave them there while we checked out the theater, but at the last second I suggested that we actually take them with, which we did.

I was with Owen and Caleb. I didn't really want to be with them, but leaving was difficult for some reason. Like it was physically difficult to leave the space we were in or something. We were in this literally pitch-black area, like a scary basement, and Owen and Caleb were getting ready to smoke or something. They were walking around like the darkness was nothing but I was so freaked out. They weren't being nice to me either. I had my phone flashlight on. I wanted to leave so badly but I was afraid of being alone by myself in the dark.

Then we were outside somewhere with two more of their friends. We were at some kind of resort or Caleb was really rich and had staff at his house or something. We were outside sitting at a table in a fenced-in area of the resort/house. There was a woman who was performing small tasks for Caleb like getting him food, etc. Caleb would call for her by saying “senorita" obnoxiously. It was really so disrespectful and made me upset.

Then he and Owen started having a conversation in Spanish about the female worker between themselves. They were being really mean and sexist. Midway through their conversation I told them I could understand what they were saying and that they knew all along that I could understand what they were saying and that they were doing it on purpose and feigning ignorance now that I'd called them out. I asked them if they really thought a middle class American wouldn't understand at least some conversational Spanish. The two friends that I didn't know were all like “oh no we didn't know!” and were all surprised and acting like it was impressive. Like that I was up to “their level” of skill and it was shocking to them.

Then somehow it became that I was with people who were celebrating something. We were still sitting at the same table, but now the setting was definitely a resort or a hotel of some kind. We sat at the table and discussed what to eat. I didn't want anything because it was dangerous to be outside and I was scared and wanted to go inside. The food was brought out to us by men who were carrying guns and acting with extreme caution. The other people who brought us out stuff were also incredibly cautious, as though it were the procedure of the hotel to act so. We were “out there at our own risk” is what the feeling was. Like the hotel allowed guests outside, but it was very dangerous and normally people didn't do it.

I was scared, so when the gunned men came out with the food I asked them what they were so afraid of. They were looking over the fence and stuff too, like checking things. The only thing I could think of was bears, so I asked, “is it bears? Are they that scary?"

The person I was emotionally the closest to at the table—who I think I called Julia but it wasn't Julia—I told them that I was worried about our situation, given how seriously the staff was taking everything, and I wanted her to be more on guard. I had this awful feeling that something bad was going to happen. It was such a strong feeling that I got up and started to leave. I called out to Julia to try and see if I could at least get her away from the table or something, to try and ease my bad feeling. She didn't listen to me or didn't hear me or something.

So I continued to walk away. I started going up these stairs that led back inside the hotel. For some reason, I decided to look back at the table. As soon as I looked back, I saw this enormous black bear walking behind the fence, right on the other side of the table. I screamed “Julia!” and she immediately got up and came toward me like she knew it was life or death, even though I gave no information about the actual situation. I felt guilty for not saying “bear!” or something that would have alerted the whole group. No one else was moving to safety except Julia because her name is the only one that I called. Seeing the bear moving behind the fence filled me with such an intense feeling of dread. Immediately after I screamed for Julia, I woke up.

It was night and I was walking with Jordyn around this big tent. The tent had lots of rooms and there was stuff going on inside. It was scary, though, and I didn't want to go inside. I think for some reason it was necessary that I be at this tent place, otherwise I would've just left. There were these three girls outside the tent putting on some show. The tent facility and its surroundings were like hosting some big theatrical performance with actors inside and outside acting in it. Like a haunted house at Valleyscare, kind of. I knew it was all fake but I didn't want to have to deal with anything scary.

So I was following Jordyn and she would go into the tent first then tell me if it was a segment that I really wouldn't want to go into or if it was one that would be tolerable for me. We got to one that I really didn't want to go into, so while she went in I opted to walk around the outside more, and then we would meet somewhere at some spot further on around the tent. I was still scared though and now I was away from Jordyn.

It was here outside the tent that I ran into the three girls and their little performance which was basically just flailing about and bothering people, trying to be scary. When their performance was over, I sat in the grass near one of the girls. I grabbed some of this material she had been using for her performance—this sticky, puffy clay-almost type stuff. I took it from her and used it to adhere a horn to my head. I don't remember where I got the horn from.

I was drawing a picture on a projector or a screen where everyone could see, in a room where people were all seated in this little circular spectator area. Lots of green colors. I was painting with my back to everyone and my butt crack was like almost showing so I was moving around to prevent that from happening. Cameron from fourier analysis was there in the audience.

Nintendo revealed the new Nook's shop upgrade and it was this ultra modern black-box type store that was controversial among fans but I really loved it and couldn't wait for it to “open.” It existed in real life though and I walked past it. It was a dream though, so I thought nothing of it. It was sunny out.

Sometime later that day, I was part of a competition where the loser would have their Animal Crossing game erased. I was playing against Nick, Catherine, and this foreign guy who was slightly older than me. We were doing tasks or something and the cumulative loser would be the ultimate loser.

We finished the final task of the competition and were headed back to the judge. While we were walking back, I started talking to the foreign guy and asked him if he'd let me pay him to be the one who has his game deleted. He said yes without any convincing. He seemed like he knew it would be this way all along. He walked really close to me and I had to tip my head up to look at him. His demeanor was like he knew something I didn't, but it didn't feel patronizing or malicious. It was really like effortlessly disarming. So disarming I started to feel suspicious that he was tricking me.

But when we got to the judge lady he did exactly as he said he'd do. He gave her his game then she gave him a bunch of cash. She also gave Catherine, Nick, and me money. I guess it was part of the competition that we got paid. Catherine got more money than I did, I think, so maybe the amount we got corresponded to how well we did in the competition. I gave all my money to the guy.

After this, he was going to head home to his country. But I wanted to keep walking and talking to him, so I asked if he wanted to keep walking and he said ok. It was fall and the leaves were changing color but nothing was all dead yet. We walked on this road that went through a valley. To the right of us was the property of a farmer, not his farmland but the part that is close to his house. There was a lot of stuff scattered around his lawn. In the distance I could see a cliffside with all these big farming structures on it. There was never a stretch of land without something on it, which embarrassed me because I wanted to show the guy that America was beautiful, but instead I felt like I was just showing him clutter.

Then it was night and we were on the patio of some house. Jordyn was there too. We were watching these lights dance in the sky. It was some sort of natural phenomenon. The guy pointed out how specific areas of light were behaving in specific ways. These “strings” of light were bound by some stellar object or something, so they only ever moved in a repeated pattern around a certain area of the sky. They moved like worm-on-a-strings.

Somehow one of them was knocked down to earth by us. It landed on the porch. Up close it looked like a little robot girl. Like a little 2 foot tall white robot. I thought the lights were just a natural phenomenon and not a “living” thing so I was surprised. The little robot was mad that we'd shot it down and was going to kill me. It started moving towards me and I thought I was going to die, but then Jordyn pulled out a ray gun and shot it in the face. I thought to myself, “Wow I'm so lucky to be friends with Jordyn, she's always prepared for these situations.” The robot didn't die, though. It pulled out its own ray gun and decided it was now going to kill both me and Jordyn.

I don't remember how, but we eventually defeated it. For a while it really seemed like it was indestructible. I think we shot down another robot, or another robot came down somehow, only this time it was a boy robot and I think we might've exploited the girl robot's love for the other robot to defeat her. Like that was her weakness and by threatening to injure him she conceded.

I was sitting in a car in a parking lot waiting for Mom and Charlie and Julia to come out of a store. A girl pulled into the parking spot next to me. I was just minding my own business but I felt like the girl was looking at me/possibly trying to initiate some interaction. I started hearing muffled screams and other disturbing noises from her car. But they weren't coming from her; it was audio from whatever she was listening to/watching. I heard her laughing and could see her out of the corner of my eye. She looked very smug like she was doing this on purpose to bother me.

I tried to ignore it, but I started feeling ill because I thought she might've been watching videos of people actually being tortured and murdered and I thought I was hearing the audio of these people's actual deaths. I couldn't take it anymore and had to move my car. As I drove away, I realized that she was just playing GTA. But she looked at me and I knew that her intention was to disturb me by making me think otherwise.

I was with Alex, her dad, and their dog. I was going to play with the dog, but first I had to go to the bathroom. The bathroom was crowded, dim-lit with (maybe) olive-green walls and marble everywhere—it was extremely fancy. Even though it was crowded, the stalls opened quickly and we were being ushered to them. Like it was systematic. The toilets were really strange. Also it overlooked Newark, New Jersey or some big city and the view was very pretty.

Then I'm out of the bathroom, back with Alex and her dad and the dog. People are lighting off explosives trying to make the loudest noise possible. I'm worried that the dog will get scared, but it seemed like they were doing sensitivity training. However, later in the dream I discovered things about these bad people there, this conspiring group, and I got them in trouble so they stopped doing dangerous things that would endanger dogs.

I was leaving an airport or something. There was this big line I had to stand in to go out the exit. This woman near me in line was given this blue luggage cart (the kind with the blue tarp that carry large amounts of luggage around the airport or whatever). In the cart there was a bunch of “merch” for the Free Britney movement. When we got to be outside the building, the woman said I could have any of it that I wanted. I looked and saw some shirts and dresses that I thought were cool. I was going to take a shirt, but then I saw this Hello Kitty purse. Like a Hello Kitty x Free Britney collab purse and I thought it was so cool. It had this magenta vinyl exterior and was in the shape of Hello Kitty's head. I couldn't believe it was just being given away for free. I was very thankful to the woman.

Ben and Kai were at a fancy seafood restaurant with Ben's dad. Both of them were really high and Ben's dad said something about that to them. Like a “c'mon guys” type thing. These two girls came in and sat at a table behind them. They were wearing these extravagant, over-the-top dresses. One of the girls leaned over and said something to Ben and Kai and Ben's dad, but they were deep in their conversation and didn't notice. When the food came, they mixed up my order with Ben's dad's. It was notable though because it was like they held my plate in front of me, then switched it out with the other one. I had the feeling that this situation had happened many times before. The whole dream was really absurd and felt like a dream but I wasn't aware that I was dreaming. The dish that I ordered was shrimp. Ben's dad ordered some kind of curry I think.

Dreampt I was walking with Roger Waters and his adult daughter and we were talking. I was also with Carolyne. I said something to Roger and he was dismissive of me, but then Carolyne said something to him and he was very responsive. They all talked for a long time and I felt bad, but as time went on they started talking to me too. At the beginning they were very cold but as we walked and talked they got nicer and nicer until we were all in a very silly mood. They did this bit where, as we were walking and talking, they'd call me aside for a second and say “wait you have to see this.” Then they'd be like, “look at this NPC, they're stuck” and it would be one of them holding a Panda Express box with noodles out just holding a still position and it was really funny.

I asked Roger to pronounce Austria in German and he did, then I said he “flattens his a's.” I also talked to him about meditation and he said that the reason he doesn't meditate is because he doesn't want to bring up old memories of the past like “his dad or Manny.” I assumed Manny was his son who'd died young or something.

We walked to my driveway, where their car/plane was parked. It was like a parasail car and it looked odd. They were going to leave, but Carolyne and I were delaying that by sitting in it, as a joke. Initially, Roger was David Bowie during this scene. Before they left, “That's Life” started playing on the plane stereo. After take off, they crashed immediately. Everyone lived but the eldest daughter, whose body was all fucked up somewhere else or something. I remember taking the pulses of them all as they were lying on the ground.
