I had a weird dream last night. It went something like this…

I was standing on the Ding Ding (aka the Double-Decker Trolly) in Hong Kong. I was serving drinks for a very exclusive, elite party. I approached a table and saw the Owl and Duke de la Salle from Bloody Mary’s Bar sitting at a table.

They both looked at me in shock. They could not believe I was serving drinks in a high-class establishment like this. Do you even know how much this trolley car costs to rent by the hour? Ugh!

I could not help myself and asked, “Hey, what is Andrew up to these days?”

They looked at each other and laughed.

“Andrew?” said Duke. “He’s such a weirdo.”

“What do you mean?” I asked.

“Here’s a video,” The Owl said he handed me his phone.

I watched the video for just a moment. On it I saw Andrew standing on a beach, diving into the ocean, then giving some kind of weird, culty enlightenment speech about finally being free and embracing the so-called “power of enlightenment.”

I looked at it with wide eyes and then handed back the phone.

“So what do you think?” I asked. “Did he ever want to fuck me?”

Both of them looked at each other and laughed again.

“I don’t know, Betsey,” Duke said sarcastically. “What do you think?”

“Honestly,” I said in a very strong and confident voice, “I think Andrew is a little pussy-ass bitch. He can’t handle the Dragon Energy.”

Both of them looked at each other and laughed again. Then I laughed. We all laughed together. We laughed and laughed and laughed.

“Hey, by the way,” I said very casually. “Do you know who Alex is?”

“Alex?” they said together in unison. “Alex? Who is Alex?”

I looked at them and shook my head in disbelief.

“I don’t even fucking know, man. He’s this Irish Guy I spent a night with in Bangkok. I can’t find any information on him. Yet somehow, I’m still obsessed with him anyway. Can you even believe this shit right now?”

We all looked around us as the Ding Ding stopped back downtown in Central. We looked out the window and saw the sign for Bloody Mary’s Bar shining bright with a line down the street and around the block. We all started laughing together again. We laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed.

Suddenly, I woke up from my dream and found myself back in Hong Kong again…
