Catching a Ride With Loy

I was on my way to work at Mercedes, and it was night time out. I was traveling along I-64 in VA heading towards Charlottesville, and it started raining. I think my car broke down or something, and just as I got past the ridge of the mountain, I had to get out of my car to walk to work. I was pretty upset about this, and I gathered up my bag of stuff and slung it over my shoulder and started walking.

After only a minute or two, Loy Hamilton pulled up beside me and offered me a ride. I accepted and climbed into the passenger side of his tan Dodge Ram truck. Being a talkative guy, he started talking quite a bit. I wasn't really in the mood to listen to him, but I decided to deal with it because things could certainly be worse. I could be out walking in the rain. I kind of sleepily settled against the passenger side door while holding my bag in my lap and listening to Loy talk. I started to feel warm and sleepy, and the dream ended about here.
