Notes are in red. Most of the people in this dream were people I went to high school with and still occasionally see. I'm not using full names though.
To set the scene it is nighttime in the midwestern city of Ann Arbor. The first part of the dream that I can remember is that I am at Charley's with Danica and someone else. I can't remember who this other guy is but I get the feeling that I despised him in the dream at least. We go to leave and this guy and Danica start walking ahead of me like 20 feet or so. We are walking down South U and they pass Paul who they both know but don't stop to talk to him. This is weird because Danica and Paul are dating. I see Paul who is wearing a loosened up suit and I talk to Paul about why he wasn't at the bar/talking to Danica. It turns out he was at work.
I keep walking alone and then turn down Tappan and see Jacque D. walking a few feet behind Emily W. and Leila O. I catch up to Jacque and I joke with her because we are both wearing big headphones. She asks me if my parents bought them for me and I joke that I am 22 and I buy things for myself, like a haircut. I'm pretty sure this was shameless flirting. When we get to South U, I turn towards state and she turns the other way. I then start talking to Emily and Leila. All of the sudden Neela jumps on my back piggyback style. This probably was in the dream because we gave each other piggyback rides to Rick's last week in real life.
We almost fall then I do the "elevator" and lift her back up. I specifically remember them referring to me going from a squatting position to standing up as the "elevator".
We notice that we are in front of Kappa Sigma and there is a painting drying on an easel in the front yard. I inspect it and it appears to be a self portrait of an Asian kid that was painted in the yard. Some passerbys are talking about stealing it and I am indifferent to them stealing it. All of the sudden the Asian kid comes out of nowhere with a golf club. I don't really see what happens because I am looking at the painting but when I turned around one of the kids that was joking about stealing the painting had the golf club and the Asian kid was cowering in fear with a math textbook over his head. Like we did in elementary tornado drills. Mark A (he showed up out on nowhere, which is why dreams are so much fun) and I are now both wearing or Cruise09 leisure jackets and talking to the guy with the club. I'm asking him what happened and I am a little upset that he hit the artist in the head with a 3 wood. The passerby's eye is all bloodied and he is explaining what he did when Mark tells me we should get out of there. I go back to the easel to pick up my swede jacket and see the Asian kid all bloody and hiding in the bushes across the street and talking on his cell phone. I then run around the east side of Kappa Sigma alone. While I'm running through a narrow wooden area I pass by some girls on the path who appear to be going to Ricks. I tip my hat towards them all as they pass. I think one of them was Jackie W. Who I haven't seen/talked to in years. The wooden path begins to descend into a stairwell with walls on either side. I can hear the sounds of a children's tune while I'm walking down a short hallway. It turns a corner to a set of an amusement park ride that had been built in a hallway intersection. It was much like that of It's a Small Would with flowing water but it looked more like the quality of the waterfall in the basement of the DKE house during Tahitian weekend. I instantly knew that I had found the secret path to Ricks. I jumped some rocks over the river and followed the curve of the hallway on the other side. It came out to an open doorway near the back bar of Rick's. I went into the bathroom to splash water on my face and to drink some water but there is a big guy in a white tux there and I have to wait for him. Then I drink water from the sink and wake up with a really dry mouth but with the feeling that the secret path out of Rick's goes back to Neela's apartment building. The best part about the secret path is that it's only about 100 feet long but it magically goes the distance of several blocks.
Interpret this dream and find the secret path to Rick's.
