The One With Mi Padre

Date: 6/5/2025

I’m at some sort of pizza restaurant with my dad’s side of the family, including John Rudisill, who backs his car — a Kia Soul — into the restaurant in order to have pizzas loaded into his trunk. My dad is caught off guard by this, and I sit at the table talking to Blake as I watch June carry enormous pizza boxes to the car. At some point, we end up on a train. Brody, Blake, Renee, and I decide to go to a second deck and lay down in the baggage areas above the seats. Blake helps a tall, skinny, androgynous black person (possibly a girl who looks a lot like a guy) with skinny dreadlocks into their own storage compartment … I’m in what looks like Gary and Kailyn’s apartment where a few newborn babies are sleeping in a bassinet that my dad, Justin, and Kristina are standing around. I ask them how things are with their new baby boy (in real life, they haven’t had him yet) and Kristina says something about how she still doesn’t feel like he’s her baby yet … I’m in a studio of some sort where my dad is teaching either sign language or some sort of interpretive dance. As he moves, he starts speaking Spanish. I’m extremely confused by this and by how fluent he sounds.
