   Went to be EARLY last night, *most likely* before 10 PM.  Wasn't feeling well,   
   aside from my usual imbalanced head issues due to my brain damage.  This felt   
   more biological in nature, as if something did not agree with me.  Apparently,   
   I've been eating a    
   bit too much chocolate even though I'm also taking carb blocker pills to help   
   prevent sugar-induced dizziness, but after sleeping until nearly noon today, I   
   am feeling better, and NOT running a fever, so any Covid Dem-Panic issues are   
   not to blame.     
   However, a sympathy card I'd sent to Gina (in care of her mother, in Colorado)   
   came back as marked "return to sender" "not deliverable as addressed" "unable   
   to forward" so perhaps that may have had something to do with it.  The   
   sympathy card was due to    
   my having discovered her father's obituary, albeit a bit late.  Seeing as the   
   card was sent March 14th, and didn't get here until April 8th, that's a bit   
   awkward, for sure.  However, the card I sent about that same time to Max's   
   widow (Kim) was not    
   returned, and it was addressed directly to "Kim White" so that's likely why it   
   was not returned.  HOWEVER, as the envelope wasn't exactly "sealed" but rather   
   used a decorative stamp to "keep" the flap down, and as it came back   
   "unstuck," it's *possible*    
   the contents of the card were viewed.  Maybe, maybe not.  Either way, I tried.   
      
   So last night's dreams were not that memorable, other than having something to   
   do with people traveling, mainly something to do with one of those situations   
   where a female asks a male if she can get a ride, and the male discovers that   
   he's expected to    
   carry more than just the one passenger, but two of her friends as well.  The   
   car that was expecting to be used in the dream was more of a 4-seater, and the   
   dreamer remarked something along the lines of "If I knew there'd be company,   
   I'd have cleaned out    
   the car."  Clarity around 7.   
      
   There was another scene that appeared oriented toward a professional type job,   
   such as an office, but there was some question as to the character of the   
   business's owner, something like arriving to find the walls bare and the   
   office(s) basically cleaned    
   out.  Clarity around 5, barely memorable.   
      
   Another scene involved trying to count some loose change, in the form of   
   roughly 2 quarters, perhaps 3 or so nickles, and a half dozen or so dimes,   
   with a number of pennies as well.  The problem here is that the coins were all   
   "coated" with a kind of    
   white "gravy" such that they were not easily arranged to be counted, and the   
   dreamer was having some trouble managing to count the coins.  As a result, I   
   can't exactly tell you how much the change added up to, only that the   
   greasy-whitish substance was    
   unpleasant.  "I" can attribute it (IRL) to possibly one of two sources,   
   namely, either the Beta-Hydroxybutyrate (salt(?)) capsules I take to block   
   sugar/carb absorption in my diet, OR possibly the gravy sauce mom makes on   
   occasion, OR possibly both in    
   combination (OR it may be unrelated to any of this.)   
      
   Note:  the female requesting a car ride at the start of all this seemed like a   
   dark-haired version of Joyce, which was really unusual.   
      
   There was another segment involving car travel, but oriented more toward being   
   on the road between hotel destinations.  Clarity 5, *barely* memorable.  There   
   was a somewhat clear sense of deliberately traveling by route B in order to   
   avoid obstruction    
   along route A.
