Going to the lab

In this dream, AM was in the lab, as usual. I was bored, so I decided I would go up there as well. I went to his building with two computers - my home and work computers - and went to the floor he was on. I didn't know where he was, so I went to this small library in the northeast corner of the floor. There were a few people studying there, and bookcases lined the walls. There was an air mattress with a pillow and blanket in the middle of the floor on the northwest side of the library (near the door) that no one was using. So I sat there with my computers, logged on to Facebook, and started chatting with AM. After some time, I finally mentioned that I was actually in his building and wanted to come see him. I asked where he was, and he told me he was on the southeast side of the building.

I picked up my work laptop, but realized it didn't make sense to bring both laptops with me. I locked the second laptop and left it on the air mattress, and tucked my Brown Monkey (my favorite stuffed animal) into the blanket so other people would realize that the computer was in use and it belonged to someone, and they might feel guilty about stealing it if they saw that a stuffed animal was watching.

I went to the southeast side of the building, where a door was open to a computer lab. AM was there, and we chatted for a few minutes, but he couldn't talk for very long because he had another classmate, Steve, coming to discuss something with him. After some time, two guys came down the main hallway: a tall, thin guy with brown hair, and a short, fat blond guy with a buzz cut. The tall guy was Steve, and AM said hi to him as he entered the room and began setting up his computer. I figured it was best to leave at this point, and the other guy was also leaving at the same time. AM went to hug me goodbye, but ended up trying to hug the blond guy instead, realized that it wasn't me, and quickly tried to turn it into a handshake at the last minute. The blond guy tho gave him a "bro hug" which was kind of awkward for everyone involved. I was highly amused and went away at that point, to save AM the embarrassment. I went back to the library and continued playing on Facebook.

About half an hour later, AM calls me to tell me he wished he had milk or creamer for his coffee. I told him to check in the refrigerator for the biology department. He told me that was disgusting because that was where they kept their petri dish experiments. I said that they didn't keep their experiments in the milk jug and he really should just get some milk if they had any. He hung up thinking I was crazy, with me thinking he was simply not resourceful.
