Burning Forest, Sinking Ship

I have to get to school and walk through Fox Forest. The weather has been so dry and hot that a few trees are on fire. I notice how much has healed since the fires 12 years ago. My classes are at my high school. I have a 2 and a half hour class with Lutj. I'm living with my parents and don't drive. But I have my grad school schedule. A famous actress is hosting a halloween event. The producers try to pull a trick on her. She is told high schoolers have brewed a wheat beer, then give the recipe, and she has to taste it mixed with coke and orange soda and ice. However, she recognizes the recipe is the same as Blue Moon or something similar. Although I try to tell her this, one of the high school girls gloats to me how she tricked her. I make a joke about Arnold Palmer being a bartender here. I think it's hillarious. Walking through a store I see a new Hersheys flavor, celery creme filled. I'm in am office. Contractors have a portable ship simulator with inflatable tentlike screens. They're tying to teach how to predict what fishing and sail boats will do. They even have two similar scenarios running at the same time, each on 2 screens. There's a glitch and the ownship, at the pier, sinks stern first. I realize it's an LCS and the graphics are better than any simulator I've seen. The LCS glitchily comes to rest vertically leaning against the pier, looking like a rocket. An error message pops up. I ask if this is a new capability of the ship. "Prepare for blastoff!" Again, I think I'm hillarious.
