Claire Danes Knows About Hedgehogs

#1
I'm looking through my list of Facebook friends and come across someone I don't recognize. He has some dumb name like "Farmerman Dan" that doesn't really help me identify him. I go to find him in person. I track him down to this house in the middle of nowhere with no electricity and no running water. He's part of a metal band and I realize he's the friend of some guy my friend Amanda dated like 10 years ago. I leave the house and find a hedgehog in the yard. I'm worried that the little guy might be dehydrated since there's no running water in the house. I drive to a strip mall and knock on the door of a pet store. It's closed for the night, but Claire Danes opens the door anyway and takes a look at the hedgehog for me.

Claire Danes is on the right

Elephants and Jodie Foster

#1
At work but the office is very dark. Am trying to play "Too Close" by Alex Clare for my coworkers. I have my iPod up as loud as it will go and am halfway through the song before I realize it's the wrong one.

At a zoo(?). An elephant has spotted Annie through a window and keeps trying to get closer to her. Eventually the elephant gets loose/breaks out and picks Annie up in its trunk. It's not hurting her -- more like it just really wanted to give her a hug.

Watching people get ready for some sort of fun run. They're lined up in groups/waves and I watch them take off. Suddenly it's my turn, and the run has turned into an obstacle course/scavenger hunt thing. I have to find a softball hidden in a bookshelf, then climb up the bookshelf and along the top. Next thing I know I'm out on the street and I have to watch a clip of a Jodie Foster movie and write down two plot points before I can move onto the next task.
