I dreamt last night that I was back at Rider, in college and I was invited to a party, but I didn't know my way around, and I needed someone to help me get to the building on campus where it was occurring.

Katie Holmes was there, and she was going and she agreed to help me, so we got into my old Dodge Shadow and we were driving around New Jersey. At one point, I took a wrong turn off of the highway, and we entered a town that had huge old brick skyscrapers, and was built on the side of a hill. It was beautiful, and I fell in love with the town and I wanted to stay there, but we knew we had to get back to campus, so I turned the car around and started driving back to school. On the way to school we stopped at a Baskin-Robbins to have some ice cream. Mel Gibson was there, and he was running the store. I bought a double scoop of caramel pecan and Katie Holmes had some chocolate variety. Mel Gibson kept trying to talk to me, but I couldn't hear him above all the noise in the store, and the ambulances roaring by on the street.

I walked outside with the ice cream and say ambulance after ambulance driving by and I asked James Earl Jones (playing the dean) if they were all going to Rider, and sighed and said they were. The party was getting out of hand and people were taking too many drugs and getting hurt. A large group of old people in suit stood watching the parade of ambulances, and I realized they were the university trustees, and the Dean was going to lose his job.

I returned to school with Katie Holmes, and we walked by the party. It was outdoors, and people were killing each other, and dancing, and thrashing, and taking drugs. It looked like a scene out of Mad Max.

We ducked into a house and ran upstairs. My mom and other people lived in the house, and McKenna was there. Katie Holmes started playing with McKenna and her toys, and I went to sit in another room and think. I wanted time to be alone.
