I had the strangest dream. I was out to dinner with my parents and someone else that I don't remember. We were sitting at a very nice table on the back patio of a house that I could imagine Paula Deen living in. Katy Shay was a waitress, but not ours. I'm not sure we had one. My dad was getting impatient so I got up and went into the house through the doors that were on the patio. They had stretchy, frilly, floor length curtains on them and led into a bedroom. All the furniture in the room was made of heavy, dark wood. There was a huge bed that had bedding straight out of a Sear's catalog. I started rifling through the drawers of a dresser and found some menus. I leaned out the door and handed them to my dad, then went back into the room. The interior door busted open and a frantic looking man asked me what the hell I was doing. "It's really busy out here, come on!" I looked around like he was talking to someone else. He raised his eyebrows at me in disbelief and threw his hands in the air, slamming the door behind him. I peeked out the door that he came through and saw a bustling, commercial kitchen. I was now wearing a formal type server outfit, complete with a bow tie. Caramelized onions and garlic were heavy in the air, it smelled delicious. I picked up a large tray of food and headed toward the swinging doors, that I assumed led to the dining area. I didn't really think I was supposed to be doing any of this, I was just kinda going with the flow. What happened to the quaint, country style backyard that I was sitting in? Where was my table? Did I work here? Was I supposed to be our waitress?! A door slammed. I woke up.
