   2020/05/22 Friday:   
      
   YESTERDAY (Thursday, 5/21) was the 14th anniversary of my late fathers DoD   
   (date of death) but ALSO the day the new mower arrived from Amazon. WOW!    
   WHAT FUN!! I've NEVER had a mower THAT easy to push! It rolled more easily   
   than just about any vacuum    
   sweeper ever made! I practically *danced* with it across the yard! :)   
      
   As a result, after a rather filling dinner (of a chicken salad and a   
   tuna/pasta dish) I had a SOLID night's sleep except for some rather vivid   
   dreams:   
      
   1) "Extended" Water Faucet: The scene was in the back yard of the mobile home   
   where I used to live at 3050 Asbury Lane. There was an external water faucet   
   there, which was basically a T-branch off the incoming water main, which ran   
   up from underground    
   to under the house, into the cold / heated water split. But that's all "real   
   life" history. In the dream, the outdoor spigot was actually an "extension"   
   unit: the water pipe led UP TO but NOT THROUGH the aluminum skirting which   
   ran around the mobile    
   home. On the *outside* of the skirting was what could only be called an   
   "extension unit" of some kind: water from *behind* the skirting / wall was   
   molecularly "relocated" to the spigot / extension unit *outside* the   
   skirting. The dreamer was a bit    
   fascinated by this, as it clearly indicated physical teleportation of water   
   from point A to point B, yet this gadget "felt" like it was a commonplace   
   device, something anyone could get at any hardware store. The only thing is,   
   the external spigot-device    
   had a "range" such that it could only be used up to a short range (a few   
   yards, perhaps? it felt more like inches, but the concept wasn't deeply   
   explored *at all*) so that the further the spigot was located from the   
   "sending" side, the weaker / slower    
   the output on the extended ("receiving") side. As I was coming out of this   
   dream, it occurred to me that this must be working on some kind of basic,   
   electronic principle, and that it worked with water because of the simplicity   
   of a molecule of water,    
   that H2O could be purely transported / transmitted. This even acted as   
   something of filter, or could filter, as I looked at the idea. Clarity a   
   *good* 7 or barely 8, due to the unusual properties of the spigot, which seem   
   beyond our present level of    
   understanding when it comes to physics.   
      
   In this other dream, the dreamer was as a high school student (or possibly   
   college, but it *felt* more like high school) at what felt like the front   
   right corner seat within a room. "He" (?) actually felt more like along the   
   right wall itself, as the    
   view was of the front end of the classroom, and the teacher was along the left   
   wall with her (?) back to the class, huddled as if trying to covertly light a   
   cigarette, but the flame was not producing: *Flick! Flick! Flick! Flick!   
   Flick!* The dreamer    
   was a bit conflicted, feeling the teacher had the right to smoke (or at least   
   *try*) in his/her own classroom, yet the idea of not smoking inside any public   
   building did not even enter the equation. What *did* bother the dreamer,   
   however, was the    
   spilled tobacco-like material (it seemed more like tobacco than pot, however)   
   on the floor in the corner near where the dreamer was located. As I type   
   this, even though the dreamer was not trying to gather up any of the material   
   to roll it or smoke it,    
   even so, the lesson on hypocrisy (the mote in thy neighbor's eye) seems most   
   appropriate to the situation. Clarity maybe 7 or 8, as the conflicting nature   
   of a teacher smoking (or trying to) in a classroom, combined with the evidence   
   of material on the    
   floor, all seemed -awkward-.   
      
   Room in S-shaped hallways: the dreamer seemed to be looking for a specific   
   destination, on a floor that seemed as if in the middle of a building, or   
   possibly near the ground level, yet the hallways were not straight corridors,   
   but more on an S-shaped    
   layout. I gotta say, I suspect this may be the first time I've ever   
   encountered a floor plan such as this, in a dream OR in real life. The rooms   
   at either end of the S seemed identical, and the dreamer entered one, with the   
   impression that it may have    
   been the office of Oprah Winfrey, however, that impression was not clearly   
   indicated in the dream. IRL, there was recently a tweet posted with a   
   notification that "Oprah Winfrey liked" the tweet, *however*, it did not trace   
   back to one of those blue-   
   checked "confirmed" addresses, so it well could have been an impostor or a   
   subordinate. The S-shaped floor plan of this building reminds me *very* much   
   of the concept of dualism (and snakes with forked tongues) which plays into   
   another dream I just had    
   a short while ago (I originally got up and had breakfast around 7 AM and   
   started typing these, but then felt compelled to get some more sleep, and just   
   got up shortly after 12 noon, so I'll post on that dream in a moment....)   
   Clarity 6 or 7, as there was never any real understanding of WHY the dreamer   
   was in that hallway or what was being sought after.   
      
   Two packages delivered to one address (one package was incorrectly labeled):
