Alright, I had a pretty trippy dream last night.
So I was sleeping in the back of someone's pickup truck for some reason, I just remember it being absurdly padded and cozy for some reason, as the we were driving somewhere. When he stopped driving, I was outside in the parking lot of a Walmart or a Target or something, and the driving gentleman gets out and asks me to watch his pickup truck for him. I agree and he gives me his keys, which I set into the ash tray and I busy myself with reading a book or something. A little while later, a delinquent friend of mine hops into the truck, takes the keys and starts driving around with me in the back. I have to wrestle the wheel from him, kick him out, and then drive back to the original spot. However, for some bizarre reason, the spot that he had parked in (conveniently marked for some reason) was now further away from the Walmart. Like, the entire parking lot was further away by a good ten or fifteen feet. At this point I think that I could just steal the truck, but I'm a kindly, honest soul and I couldn't do that. Several more hours pass, and another friend shows up. We wait for awhile, when he suggests that I go into the store to look for him, because seriously this is taking too damn long. So this time I'm sure to take the truck keys with me, and I head in.
The inside of the Walmart has a bizarre layout, meant to confuse and trick people. After finally finding the Gentleman, he says he wants to try out one thing first before leaving, so he grabs an article of clothing and heads into one of those little dressing rooms. Before he can close the door though, the mirror inside opens up and a man pulls him through the opening before closing the mirror back up again. Rather than fuck with the mirror, I jump up ontop of the dressing room and find this elaborate carousel of people snatchers rotating on this mechanism, carefully timed so that when one person goes into one of the dressing rooms, somebody's there to snatch them. However, the gentleman isn't on the carousel, as though he were snatched and then vanished into thin air. I jump down onto the mechanism and proceed to throttle one of the snatchers half to death to tell me where the gentleman is. He tells me to just leave and I'd find him.
I go back outside to the parking lot, but now the parking lot has gotten even further away from the building, like another forty feet further and now it's unreasonably far away from the building, but still within sight. I get up to the truck, and the driver, passenger, and two rear seats are all being occupied by my friends, as though they've been patiently waiting the entire damn time to go somewhere. I wonder if I had lost the Gentleman forever, but then everyone points at the entrance to the store, and there he is, just coming out with a coat significantly more badass than the one he came in with. SO I hop back into the pickup portion of the pickup truck, and one of my friends is forced to get out to make room for the Gentleman, and then we drive off to the better tomorrow. That's where I wake up.
This is the first time in a long time that I've had such a long, detailed dream.
