I dream I hear a big ruckus in Daniel’s room. My mother and father are in there and making a big fuss over him. His room is beautifully furnished and filled with elegant, swirling curtains, some red and some black. They stage arguments in different costumes in front of different combinations of curtains. I feel neglected. I try to create a scene of my own in which I eat chicken wings and throw them at my mother.

I dream I take my brother to one of my favorite places in Fairmount Park. There is a little known entrance to underground caverns where graduate students take off all their clothes and run around. The caverns have furniture, though they don’t have walls or floors, and it is an honor to work there. Daniel joins the fellowship of the caverns. He removes his clothes and runs like the wild men of yore.

I dream I am with my family at an amusement park and I am about to test a new ride. It’s a huge tower that pulls people up to the top and drops them down. I enter the cabin with Daniel and others. Then, a lugubrious voice announces, “Before we go up, we go down.” Suddenly, the cabin goes down twenty feet into the ground where we are covered by a blanket of dirt. I am angry because I am a little claustrophobic. I start yelling “This is a pussy ride. Pussy! Pussy! Pussy!” Next, I am thrown off the ride for being profane. My brother approaches and sanctimoniously tells me that despite what I think, this ride will win “ride of the year.” I tell him, “Why don’t they get another ride? ‘Drill through the head.'”
