Show time

A high school play. I am sitting in the front row. Rows of theatre seats circle the stage. Heather and Tara sit across from me on the opposite side of the stage.

Climbing into a treehouse. Roy is wearing a boa and has tattoos. Several teachers are there. A trucker sees them. A teacher chases him behind some houses.

Driving down a street of carnival games. There is a girl in the car. We pull into a casino hotel. It is all one giant basement casino, it’s all we can see. She goes to check in and I grab my bag and one of her suitcases and follow.

Sitting around a dining room table with a family that is not mine. The grandfather is talking to me and trying to decide what to eat. He gets up and goes to the kitchen, then comes back and decides to eat with the family. The boy sitting across from me at the table is gone. He got up and said in a funny deep voice, “Excuse me, I got to go talk to the ladies.” I see him with two girls outside the restaurant and I laugh at him.
