We’re heading down to Cody’s parents house in a few minutes but I just woke up from the coolest weirdest dream.

It was very Elia Kazan / Tennessee Williams but I don’t remember a previous plot like this so I’m really inclined to write it out. Basically there was this pretty little naive hick girl who had a whirlwind romance with a charming sweet hick guy. They’re totally in love only in that way that naive youths in their late teens - early twenties can be. So they get married and are just disgustingly ignorant and cute and happy right? I say they’re hicks and all that but I don’t mean they’re big racist rednecks or anything - just…country but in that slow nice kind of way - not aggressive. Then he invites his young bride to meet his parents for dinner at their house. Turns out his family is just creepy as shit. They like live in a shack and there are all kinds of brothers. There’s a much older sister but she’s severely mentally challenged. The father is stick-thin and doesn’t speak very much, isn’t very understandable when he does. The mother is huge and overbearing and has creepy dynamics with her children. Crazy Oedipal shit going on with those sons. She owns a general store and cooks a strange amalgam of cajun country food with random Japanese influences. There’s a really scary dog with a dachsund head and a terrier body. The son is totally in love with his little bride but his mom clearly disapproves. The bride is just spooked as all hell by the whole scene and was in the process of talking him into going home when I woke up.

Weird huh
