State fair

In this odd dream, I am flipping between present and past (both imagined). I remember going to the state fair with my boyfriend and taking home a piglet. It was adorable at first, and clung to me like a puppy. Not long after, however, it becomes a nuisance in my home. It is super annoying and won't stop annoying me. It's obsessed with me and won't even let me go down the stairs without giving it attention. So I try to lock it in a contraption under the breakfast table, but it fails. Then on another occassion I go back to the state fair, and consider returning it. While I'm there, once more with my boyfriend, a little girl runs up to him and offers to trade him a t-shirt for his hat, which is a cap from my father's company. She is thrilled, and tells us her town doesn't have any big company plants in it, so she will be really cool now that she has a hat.

We also run into an old friend from high school, who I never really liked and haven't heard from in ages. She is working as a waitress for a restaurant portion of the fair. Each time we pass her, she tries to ignores us, or gives us an insincere smile.

While at the fair, I am texting an old friend. He's at the fair while we are, but never in the same place, so I don't see him. He texts me about what he's seeing at the fair, stuff he is finding and buying.

Apparently, the only reason the pig couldn't follow me to the fair on this trip is because we rode a carriage there and carriages scare the pigs because they are hazardous to them.
