   First dream of note was an actual "production number" where a cast was coming   
   together to sing "Hello, Dolly!"  I (the dreamer) found myself singing the   
   main lyrics and even doing two verses.  I admit, consciously, I'd be   
   hard-pressed to recall these    
   lyrics other than perhaps the first 2 or 3 lines, although one could Google   
   them easily, but in the dream, the lyrics just came to mind and flowed   
   perfectly (no sense of anything untoward or fictionalized— it seemed *very*   
   "on point.")  Clarity 8 to 9.   
      
   Another dream involved the dreamer (most likely a version of "myself" in this   
   case) in a vehicle with a college-buddy, Larry.  In reality, in the '80s, I   
   would always be the driver (more sober, just safer) whereas in the dream, in   
   the present age, I tend    
   to prefer to be the passenger *if* possible due to my brain injury affecting   
   my balance to a slight extent (if I turn my head to look to either side, the   
   vehicle tends to drift in that exact, same direction!) so in this dream, I'm   
   unsure as to whether    
   the dreamer was the driver OR the passenger, but the *location* and action   
   appeared to be related to driving along an area of I-24, definitely north   
   ("west") of Smyrna, but the "sense" was more like "Mount Juliet" / "Lebanon" /   
   "Gallatin", as it would be    
   sensed from Larry's perspective.  There was a specific reference to "this area   
   is definitely ___ " but I can't recall the exact phrase that was used at that   
   time, although it was very precise, and *seemed* like "north Lebanon" but that   
   doesn't exactly "   
   fit" the recollection.  Clarity 7 to 8 (lessened due to the inaccuracy of the   
   geographical "fit" and the inability to recall that exact phrase that was   
   used.)   
      
   In another dream, the dreamer felt as if he was driving a large rig, an   
   "18-wheeler", and there seemed to be an incident of road construction /   
   obstruction which caused the dreamer / driver to slam on the brakes, although   
   the vehicle seemed to take a bit    
   longer than desired to stop.  There was a definite feeling of needing to   
   either wait for someone else to arrive at that location *or* having missed a   
   turn that should have been taken.  Clarity 7 or 6, maybe closer to 7.   
      
   There were a *number* of smaller segment dreams, and although I can recall   
   having experienced them, they all practically evaporated upon waking.
