So I was sitting in the back seat (right side) of a 50s-era large car that
Spatch was driving. Lodder was riding shotgun. We were at a drive-in
theatre to watch a vintage movie that Spatch wanted to see.

I was there because I'd gotten off work at the back of the parking lot and
needed a ride home. As we drove toward the screen, Spatch was swerving
around looking for the optimum spot to watch the movie. At eht same time,
he and John were calmly talking about something beyond my comprehension.

Finally, he skidded in sideways and stopped just before his right-rear
door (next to me) came in contact with the driver's side fender of another
large 50s-era car. For some reason, the concept of disaster seemed to be
only an intellectual exercise to me--I wasn't worried. (Hey, it wasn't my
car.)

I told Spatch that there wasn't enough room to open the door and he said,
"Airedale your way out."

So I opened one of the doors and woke up.

Any dream you wake up from is a good dream!

Not until you get to the one where you actually wake up and not before.

Well, yeah. I dream I'm awak and I'm trying real hard to get off the
couch and in the dream I've gotten up but then it starts over, I'm waking
up again and trying to get off the couch and I don't figure it out until
I actually do wake up and there I am, still on the couch.

It's kind of weird, in a weird kind of way.
