In which Jake's cousins are Jerks.

Jake and I were living in a fancy apartment that had an abnoxiously huge bathroom.  As in, it was like a whole room.  And the shower was completely separate from the rest of the bathroom, so it wasn't weird to have someone else in there using it while you were in the shower.

Anyway, I was taking a shower, when Jake's two female, sporty-jock-type cousins showed up.  They had just showed up to stay with us for a couple of days (I suppose).  Jake was giving them a tour of the apartment, and had finished it up with the bathroom.  He left to go take care of something in the kitchen, and the two cousins (who were tall and sporty and had awesome hair) were ooh-ing and ahh-ing over the bathroom, and they saw our fancy towels, and were like "Ooh, I hope we get to use these!" "They're so soft!"  But by then I was finished with my shower, and stuck my head out, and was like, "actually, that's my towel."  And they immediately dropped the towels on the ground, and were all "ew! We touched her towel!"  Then they scampered off, and I was left to pick my towel up off the ground.

Later I cornered Jake and told him how his cousins had acted, and he didn't really believe that they were that mean to me.  He kept telling me to give them a chance, but it was useless, because they were those type of girls, the kind that are mean to other girls, and the kind of mean that only other girls notice is happening.

Not a fun dream.

Disclaimer: Jake actually doesn't have any cousins like this.  His real life cousins are nice.

Lambert's Party...

Last weekend I had a dream where I was at some party Lambert was throwing.  It was in a house, but it didn't have normal house-type bathrooms.  Instead, they were like when you go to the bathroom in public and there are several stalls in the same room.  At some point during the party, I realized I needed to go to the bathroom, but since this was the first time at Lambert's house, I asked him where it was.
Surprisingly, there wasn't a ladies room.  Just a men's room.  But I had to go bad enough that I just said screw it, I'll use the men's room.  It had four stalls, and they all had something wrong with them.  Two were out of toilet paper.  One didn't flush.  The last one's door didn't close all the way.
Not sure which one I ended up using, but I remember that I bugged Lambert about why he didn't have a normal bathroom in his house, since it was a house and not a building requiring multiple toilets.  Don't think he had an answer.

Also, the party had like a hundred people at it.  It was absolutely packed.

Kill Bill, but not.

So in the beginning of the first Kill Bill movie, there's a girl fight in a kitchen and the daughter of one lady comes home from school and they stop fighting while the daughter is in the room, just in case no one has ever seen it.

In this dream, I was just observing. There was a blonde lady, and another lady that had brownish-reddish hair.  The brown haired lady was trying to steal the other lady's identity.  Her plan to do this was to kill the blonde lady while her family wasn't around, dispose of the body, then leave a note for the blonde's husband & kid saying that she was leaving them.  Then she would just leave that city and move somewhere else, and it'd all work.

So the brown haired lady snuck into the blonde's house during the day.  Her house had some pretty awesome carpet- bright colors and really plushy.  And even though that sounds tacky and 90's, it didn't look that way, and came across as super fancy and nice.  Also, the walls of the stairwell going up to the 2nd floor were purple.  I liked it.

So she snuck in through the front door, and was going to sneak around until she found the blonde lady and then kill her.  However, the shower was running, so the brown-haired lady just went upstairs to the bathroom.  Cue fight sequence!  Brown-haired lady had a knife, and blonde lady was in the shower, but brown-haired lady underestimated the blonde!  She knew kung-fu or something, and it turned into an epic shower/bathroom battle!

Then the daughter came home from school, and the brown haired lady hid in the shower while the blonde told the daughter to go back downstairs.

I'm pretty sure that the brown-haired lady succeeded with at least half her plan (the killing part), but not the hiding the body and disappearing part.  I don't remember this part, but based on what I do remember, I'm pretty sure that's what happened.

Miter Saw in the Bathroom?

Background:  When I was in middle school and high school, I participated in a club called Science Olympiad.  There were multiple events (bottle rockets, build a tower out of balsa wood, know everything about fossils, etc.) that tested students on their ability to build structures that met certain specifications and/or knowledge of a subject.  I was super involved and received numerous medals at both the regional and state levels.  So it was a pretty big part of my life, but I've been out of high school for a while now, and don't usually think about SciOly.


Last night, I was in a team meeting- coaches, parents, other team members.  During the meeting it was decided that the girls (myself, Aline, I think Sheree, and I think the other person was Sydney) were going to go use the miter saw to work on the bottle rocket, and that my dad would help us.  So the five of us walked down the hall to the bathroom (similar layout to my current apartment, but with an obviously larger bathroom) where the miter saw was kept.

Flash forward to Michael Kelso from That 70's Show showing up as the kid who will be participating in the bottle rocket event at competition.  He's just as Kelso-esqe as he is on the show.  But now it's just me and him and I'm trying (unsuccessfully) to teach him what he needs to know about the event.  Apparently there is some weird aviator hat with built in goggles that we have to wear, but it's got a zipper around the brim and I can't figure it out, and then it's too small for my head.  While I'm trying to figure it out, Kelso wanders off.

As I'm trying to get the hat on my head, there's some alert siren going off and the bottle rocket people (which now apparently includes me, although I don't think I was signed up for it to start with) have to report to this hovercraft thing that kind of looks like what they had in Sky Captain (near the end when the scientists are escaping), so I run up to it and jump on.  There are already four other people on it, laying down with their hands on their head, all under a sheet (guess I'm late).  One of them is Kelso, and my mom is driving the hovercraft.  There's some lady with really curly hair (maybe River from Dr. Who?) stationed at the hovercraft next to ours and she has somehow figured out those stupid goggle things with the zipper.

Then our hovercraft zipped off, Kelso made some stupid comment, and I don't know what happened next.
