Artificial Intelligence in Games

Mornings With a Cat

Recently, I was pet-sitting at someone's house. I was lying in bed asleep, and having an odd dream. Me, my mother, and a friend were doing something. Then Mom and I were about to leave in the car. We had a neighbor, a woman who was like a maternal figure to my friend, and my friend was going to stay at her house.

The friend asked if she could come with me. Thinking she meant walking with me to the car, I said yes. Instead, she got into the back seat with me, and we left.

"Wait, did you even tell her that you were going with us?" I asked.

My friend replied that she hadn't. I suggested calling our neighbor to let her know. I was trying to dial the number, but had the wrong area code the first time, and had to start over. Realizing I forgot the last part of the phone number, I asked, "What were the last four numbers?" Everyone was either giving no reply, or answering with something cryptic and nonsensical. "Fine, never mind then." I finally said in exasperation.
