Netflix dream

I had the strangest dream last night. I imagine it was partially due to the fact that I had two movies out from Netflix that needed to be returned. We had already watched them, but I forgot to return them yesterday.

Anyway.. I was going to a "friends" house for a party. It was going to be a huge bash, but it was still early in the day when I went over there, so people were just hanging out. I didn't actually recognize any of these people who were my friends, except one of them was Brad from the Real World San Diego. They were just getting stuff ready for the party, and I remembered that I had two Netflix movies in my backpack that I needed to mail. I asked one of the guys who lived in the house if there was a mailbox nearby. I described the kind of mailbox I was looking for, as if there would be some misunderstanding. He said yes, there was one at the corner, and he would show me. We went outside, and I could see it down the block, but he walked with me anyway. When we go to the corner, the mailbox was on the opposite corner, so we had to cross both streets. This is when I noticed that we did not have shoes on.. it was a very hot day, and the street was newly laid blacktop. It looked like it was a million degrees. We ran across the street very quickly, taking big jumps to touch the street as little as possible. When we got to the other corner, the grass felt so cool on our feet. This is where it gets strange. As I am about to drop my movies in the mailbox, my "friend" says, "Wait. Those aren't due yet. You shouldn't send them now. You should wait a couple days." It made sense to me, but then I said "But what will I do with them for the next couple days? I don't want to carry them." And then he says "Well, I can just eat them for you." And he takes one of the DVDs out of the envelope and puts it in his mouth and swallows it, without chewing! The DVD goes down and you can actually see it expand his throat as it goes down. As he is doing it, it all seems normal, and I am glad he is helping me. He is about to eat the second one when all of a sudden I realize.. Hey, THIS IS CRAZY! Why are you eating these DVDs? You're going to kill yourself! And then all of a sudden he realizes it too. This is crazy! So, I mail the second DVD and we run back to the house. We tell all of our other friends what happened, and we try to figure out what to do. Brad is being a real jerk and he just keeps saying that we are so stupid, and that the other guy is gonna die. Some of the other people say he should just not worry about it, that he will digest it a little and then crap it out. But I'm really upset. I think he'll probably die if he leaves it in his stomach.. PLUS, I need to return my DVD. So, I tell him that he should puke it up, RIGHT NOW, before his stomach acid ruins the DVD anymore. He agrees, and he sticks his finger way down his throat. As he pukes, you can see the DVD coming up his throat. It pops out of his mouth all covered in puke, but I clean it off and I am happy because I will mail it in and get a new movie to watch.

The END.
