Okay, so my Mom's house is up in the mountains, amid the redwood forest parks and such. In fact one such park is pretty much all that surrounds us. Hills covered with redwoods; it's pretty nice.
Anyway, there I am with some guys on the hill, building a fortress for the coming (mock?) battle against some unspecified enemy (could be my sister and her soc friends) [could be the loggers]. I headed back to the house to get some supplies. Ran into my Mom on the way; she was heading for the hill, though not necessarily my team's area of the hill. We both went back into the house, went into the kitchen and I started looking for a jar or two. I used the jar(s) to get some water from the aquarium that was mysteriously sitting in front of the washing and drying machines. When the dust settled in the jar, I could see all sorts of little things swimming around (or were they all dead?).
So I left the kitchen, ready to return to the battlefield with my newfound pond water. But along the way, I went upstairs for some unspecified reason. As I headed into the guest bedroom, my grandmother jumped out from behind the doorframe. She was naked. I dealt with the situation by grabbing the photo album in the corner and promptly waking up.
Being awake was a strange experience: I realized I forgot to get food or medicine before going to sleep. I wonder if there's an all-night drug store around here, which makes me start thinking about Superhero by Ani Difranco. Heigh-ho.
Anyway it was like a 2 hour drive between the park and the concert and she wanted to stay and look at the waterfall so I ended up driving to the concert myself. She called me like 15 minutes before it wanting to go but by then it was too late[ and I was in the hotel room and was really upset that I couldn't come get her, and she was telling me that it was getting really cold on the cliff that she was sitting on and that she wanted to go back to the hotel.
I went to the concert for a while but I got kicked out for recording it with a pen... security thought my fountain pen was a video camera and once I showed them it was a pen the concert was already over.
I went to go pick her up but I couldn't find the cliff in the dark so I tried looking for her with GPS but she'd gone somewhere else so I waited on the cliff she'd been on until morning. She came back with this guy she'd met at a Friendly's and told me she was going to give me a box of Cocoa Pebbles, but she didn't and instead pushed me off the cliff and then i woke up.
