Dreaming in Digital

20250517 i went to an all you can eat sushi restaurant for a special occasion with friends and family. I sat at the table with Biscotti, Shortbread, JammyDodger, Gingerbread and someone else. Before food was ordered i went to the bathroom.

It was a small room with one sink and toilet. Women were climbing on top of each other to wash their hands in the small sink. I ran into Tiger and her sister, who were washing their hands. I needed to urinate, so with the three of us inside the tiny restroom, I used the toilet then washed my hands.

When I got back to my table, everyone was already done eating. The trays of food were almost empty, and some people already had food packed up. I felt annoyed. The sun was setting outside too. It took so long to use the bathroom that I missed dinner!

I was at dinner with friends again. I came back to my seat to find a man with a shaven face. He looked so smooth, like a child's face. Everyone stopped talking to look at me as I approached.

"Do you know who this is?" Gingerbread asked.

"... Spritz?"

As I went to him, he got up and I gave him a hug.

In a restaurant, I came back to my seat from ??? And sat down beside Biscotti and Spritz. It was near the end of our visit. I listened to everyone talk before getting up and getting some food from a large take out container on the counter. Sitting back down, Biscotti's brother said he's a little hungry.

"There's still some food there," i said.

"But that's my lunch tomorrow," he replied.
