Opening Song: "I Have A Dream" - ABBA
Dream #1: "Come On Down!"
Tina Fey (from Saturday Night Live) comes to visit Northeast Senior High to deliver a speech in front of everyone in the auditorium. She asks for 10 volunteers to come forward. When they do, the room transforms into Ms. Kerschner's classroom. Among the 10 volunteers are Teena, Alexis, and Jeff. Teena, clad in an oversized lumberjack shirt, has the world's biggest smile on her face and she looks like she is floating. Alexis is giggling and Jeff is listening to a portable CD player (not something he does in real life).
Well, Tina Fey gives out the prizes to them and it turns out to be everyone's class schedules. Jeff starts complaining because he only has 5 classes this year and he wants more. So then I show him my schedule and it's full of ridiculously easy courses like "How to play DDR 101" and "How to Build Stuff." We talk more about that and Carlise eavesdrops on the entire conversation, but I don't mind.
Dream #2: "Extra Credit"
I'm still in Ms. Kerschner's classroom. She finally comes in and gives the class an extra credit homework assignment. Our mission, if we choose to accept it, is to go to the location on the map she has given everyone. It looks a lot like an amusement park map 'cause it's bright yellow and green.
All of a sudden, it's nighttime and I'm outside driving around in the rain along a country road. I look at the map and make a right turn directly into the woods (no road). I then find myself on a muddy trail that goes at least 60 feet underground. I choose to cautiously drive all the way to the bottom because I know that Marianne's waitin' for me.
Dream #3: "Band Brawl"
In the beginning it's early in the afternoon and I'm outside playing football with some friends behind the school. I go inside and it's suddenly nighttime again (what else is new?). I'm in the cafeteria in my marching band uniform and our band is having a battle with a rival band. People are using trombones as weapons and cymbals as shields. Everyone's throwing punches at each other!
Meanwhile, on the other side of the cafeteria, the Pom Squad and the Color Guard girls are taking some glamor photographs. In walks Mr. Kispert (our school principal), he takes one look at them and asks me, "Why are they dressed like a bunch of skanks?" and I just crack up laughing.
That's when I wake up. If you were wondering exactly why I had three separate dreams, I woke up at 7AM today so I could get ready for work but I had intense back pains so I couldn't move at all and my throat was so dry I couldn't call for help so I just said, "Screw it. I'm calling in sick... Cough." And I just stayed there until help arrived eight hours later.
What do I think of all this? I'm not really sure, but I have become more violent in my dreams lately. Weird. But I do think that Tina Fey probably popped up into my dream 'cause I fell asleep watching her on SNL's "Weekend Update" sketch.
