   Getting my calendar header started out right this morning... :)   
      
   LOTS of dreams from last night / this morning.  I came down with the sniffles   
   yesterday, feeling like I may have caught them from Church, but that's really   
   not fair, as I may have caught them from grocery shopping, or these sniffles   
   *may* just be heavy    
   allergies / hay fever.  Certainly NOT "coronavirus," which is all the rage   
   these days.  However, I *did* get to bed early last night (probably before 11   
   PM) and only got up with the dog twice.  The third time (early this morning) I   
   turned over and went    
   back to bed.  The funny part was, I had MANY dreams, and I'm relatively   
   uncertain as to how many I'll actually get recorded here today:   
      
   The earliest dream (first remembered from the evening after having fallen   
   asleep) involved some person *sawing* heads off of people.  The act seemed far   
   less like jihadists using a knife to decapitate, but more like a hacksaw being   
   used on a thick tree    
   branch / limb.  If you've ever watched the horrific videos of jihadi Muslims   
   beheading non-Muslims en masse (OR individual beheadings) there's a kind of   
   visceral gut reaction of "How DARE they?!" or "That just ain't right" or   
   such.  But in this dream,    
   the sense was more along the lines of "How well did that work?" or the feeling   
   of satisfaction one gets from the final cut of a tree branch as it falls away   
   from the trunk.  To be clear, I find the actual act of Muslim aggression   
   (beheading) to be    
   disgusting, while tree trimming can be actually rewarding.  This dream seemed   
   more *interesting* on the edge of *curious* than anything else.  I'm wondering   
   if it were symbolic of something else entirely.  Clarity level 7 or 8.   
      
   Another dream that *really* caught my attention was happening by a *slick*   
   smooth-looking car that reminded me to some extent of a Chevy muscle car.    
   VERY much like a '69 Dodge Charger, BUT with an edge-nosed front, as if   
   anything resembling a radiator    
   was *hidden* behind the front end, so that the leading edge seemed more like a   
   wind slicer than an air catcher.  The vehicle was *sleek* overall, with nearly   
   NO coloration / detail / emblems on the metal work.  It did seem to have a   
   silver & black motif.    
    However, it was seen on the curb of a road at night (well, it was a very dark   
   dream) and there seemed to be no streetlamp nearby.  What caught my attention   
   most was the LACK of identification on the vehicle.  I got *in* (surprised to   
   find the driver's    
   door unlocked!) and checked out the (dark) instrument panel.  I could *barely*   
   make out what appeared to be a small gauge for the speedometer, roughly 3"x4"?   
   and turned to get a good look at the rear seats (bench style, not individual   
   buckets) but did    
   not see any keys immediately visible, nor a "starter button", and I normally   
   abide by the rule "look but don't touch" when it comes to someone else's car,   
   *especially* one that's an eye-catcher.  Feeling like I was overstepping my   
   bounds *just a bit* I    
   got out of the car and walked away before anyone could "catch" me in it (end   
   of dream.)  Clarity 8+   
      
   This other dream had a weird sense of horses to it, and something like a chase   
   though woods, although it was as if someone (the dreamer) was on foot,   
   following some bandits on horseback.  It emerged into an open area like a   
   neighborhood, with the horses    
   now unencumbered and roaming free.  I went to a garbage can (the older, round   
   aluminum / steel kind, not the modern plastic receptacles) in the garage and   
   fetched out a scoopful of grain which I took around to try and befriend as   
   many horses as I could.     
   However, I only came across one, that was VERY much like my pony from   
   childhood, "Coquette."  The other horses seemed to become more like weeds /   
   bushes / flora.  Clarity 7 for the most part.   
      
   This other dream before waking involved the three main characters from the old   
   TV show, Bonanza:  Lorne Greene, Little Joe (Michael Landon) and Hoss (Dan   
   Blocker.)  This had an actually LOW clarity level, although the 3 characters   
   were distinct.  I can't    
   recall exactly what any of the scenery was about nor any action, so it has a   
   low clarity level of 3, +/-.
