02/08/18: Getting lit in an Arbys
I was driving around a town that I've seen before in a dream I had a long time ago that I'll try and recall after I get my thoughts from the dream from last night on this page so I don't forget. The town had a sense of familiarity to it but I know I have never been to it in real life. My purpose for driving at midnight I assume since it was dark out and I was in my pajamas was to do a meal run. After driving literally around in circles it came to my attention that I was in a parking lot containing multiple stores, two of which being a Jack In The Box and an Arby's. I was going to go through Jack's drive through but the exit to the drive-thru was unreasonably small so I decided begrudgingly to park my truck and quickly walk inside in my pajamas. While I was leaving my parked truck a group of four men got out of the car next to me who were “H,” “Le,” “S,” and “Mi.” They all cheerfully greeted me and asked what I was doing and where “R” and “M” were, to which I told them I had the munchies and my two roommates didn't want to come. They said that was good since they were all annoyed with them at the moment which they never elaborated on but I just rolled with it. The group told me they were intoxicated at the moment which was pretty obvious since “S” and “Le” were slurring and jittery, “Mi” was way too quiet and smiley, and “H” was super hyper. We talked about whatever until we got into the Arby's. Inside the lights were dimly lit like a tunnel entrance to a haunted house. The walls and floors were tiled with wooden planks like in a Mesquite Grill and the line to order food wrapped around a wall that hid the menu and the cashier. While in the dream this didn't strike me as odd, but looking back at it now I realize this is not what an Arby's looks like. Anyways, we waited in line and I saw “J” and some other guy he was talking to who I can only assume was a friend from UT. We recognized each other and started talking with one another about whatever came to our minds, but “J” was clearly drunk off his ass seeing as how his speech soundeddd liiikke thiissss. I had begun telling him about the dreams I've been having and one I had about flying which seemed to visibly anger him, so I shut up and walked away. He orders his food and walked off in the other direction everyone was ordering from the cashier but I was told to buy my food from a line that just opened up so I was walking around the wall when the room began to open up from a narrow court yard to a large empty circular room with nothing in the center, nothing on the walls. I was told to go to the counter which looked like a ticket booth on the outside from where I was ordering but on the inside where the clerk was there was a large furnace on the back wall and scattered cardboard cutouts and comics. The clerk was a big lady who tried to be nerdy whenever she could. The menu was to the right of the counter on the wall which I ordered a prime rib mush from since all the other options looked equally as gross. I got my food half off from $22 to $11, which I could tell wasn't intentional but I didn't try to correct her. Unfortunately, the food took a long time to cook and the whole time the lady was trying to talk to me but I was barely listening, responding to whatever she said with “haha” and “yeah totally.” I couldn't help but notice that the people going to counter one which looks like a movie snack stand counter with food on display in a glass table we're getting their food from a shaggy looking dude much quicker. Looking to my right I saw the gang I walked in with waiting on me, smiling, but I could tell they wanted to leave for the longest time. I was the only person in this line until "M" and “Lu” walked up and started chatting with me. The gang looked annoyed that he was there since I told them he wouldn't be and "Mi" pulled out a pipe and started to get lit in the Arby's. I got my food and sped walked away from "M" towards the game but "M" had gotten his and “Lu” food in seconds and started to chase after us.
We all bolted towards the exit, but when I touched the door I was in another dream this time with "M" by my side. We were walking on an endless Highway of cars crashed and abandon on the sides and below the highway is a thick cluster of fog and Mist which created the illusion of the highway being above the clouds. The gang had apparently beaten us to the end of the highway and reached a helicopter but they were mad at me for disabling zombies. "M" and I peacefully walked into the helicopter and we decided that we wanted to go to a park so we used Google Maps and had a photo of the park to help navigate. "M" and I drove in my truck and I was trying my best to find the location based off the photo and memory but we drove past it multiple times and we drove past multiple Parks which I knew weren't the right ones but it began to worry me. We were circling around apart that had an orange wall and green slide like the photo provided, but I was nervous that it was still wrong so I told "M" to activate Google Maps. He wouldn't listen and began to get drowsy as my eyes closed and I was driving blindly all while I persisted that "M" turned on maps. I eventually tapped his face with my phone which caused him to scream out in pain, by this point however I presumably fell asleep in the dream and woke up in real life.
Bonus: the town I was in had been in a dream a long time ago where "K" invited "R" and I to help build a haunted house with her by a sorority home complex which we had to drive to in "R"'s truck through this town I vaguely remember what happened but I think "R" had to make a pit stop at a Party City at one point and the dream stopped after someone fired a gun so “R,” “K,” and I all drove off. Also, the wood used to make the house was normally tall, like half the size of the apartments they were built behind.
