Oscar the hedgehog somehow became evidence in a murder trial, and was supposed to appear in court sometime in the fall. For this reason, he was returned to my care. (The reason Keri claimed she returned Oscar was that a girl in the group she was going to prom with also had a hedgehog, and so she didn't think it was cool to have a hedgehog anymore.) A mysterious man who my parents seemed to know showed up and kept telling me he would feed Oscar. I was convinced that he was trying to kill Oscar, and that my mom's sudden desire to have an all-new set of pots and pans was somehow related to this sinister plot.
Meanwhile, one of Cody's new friends had said something to me in a text that I took as some kind of creepy innuendo. I freaked out and even dropped my plans to go clubbing that evening, and ransacked the entire house, looking under all the beds and in all the closets, to make sure he wasn't hiding anywhere. Later I went to Cody's house, and discovered that he felt at fault for the whole ordeal. I heard him announcing to his father that the only way to fix his mistake was to study abroad. I remember thinking this was all connected to the Oscar debacle.
Then I woke up.
I have been trying to put the clues together, but I haven't come up with anything. Also I think there are a few red herrings in there.
Wow! What have you been eating? Or is it jet lag?

I think you'd better find out what else is in those falafels.
ReplyDeleteHey Cody showed me your blog, and this post does amuse me! Oh man, Oscar really is the center of everything. Today he ate ham! Anyway, that's a funny dream, and I hope you are having a good time in Israel!
ReplyDeleteFunny you should have dreamed this, because Keri in fact no longer thinks it is cool to own Oscar and hired an assassin to take him out. It's not exactly what you dreamed, but it's close enough.
ReplyDeleteIt's not true!!! >:-O
