   Had something akin to a horror-film type dream, which wasn't frightening so   
   much as it was perhaps "unpleasant" to the extent that I would have changed   
   channels (maybe) if I'd been watching this on TV.  I *used* to watch horror   
   shows.  These days I    
   simply "get no *kick*" from them.  Something about a male vampire, perhaps   
   appearing in his mortal mid-30s, with what appeared to be an agenda to bite   
   those around him.  Everyone had a kind of pale, ashen look, as if they'd not   
   been out in the sun in    
   years, or perhaps *totally* isolated from sunlight for the better part of a   
   year.  (Yes, the correlation to the dem-panic situation does seem to be a   
   factor:  that fear may be physically contagious.)  This dream somewhat ended.    
   It lasted perhaps 10    
   seconds in dream time and quite possibly had a bit more detail, but it's all   
   evaporated, down to maybe clarity 6? 5? Sunshine is one of the *best*   
   "disinfectants" there is :)   
      
   The other dream before waking simply evaporated.  There was another dream   
   further back in the evening, dealing with "rich" / wealthy properties, such as   
   apartments in ritzy college areas, where stuff was being turned out onto the   
   sidewalks, typical of an    
   eviction-type after effect, however, sometimes people simply *move* and leave   
   stuff behind, which gets put out on the sidewalk.  The object of focus in the   
   dream appeared to be some kind of desk which doubled as a refrigerator on part   
   of its inside.     
   Fairly cool design, I suspect, such that someone could continue working /   
   studying / whatever at one's desk and merely pull out an apple or a cold one   
   or what have you.  In hindsight, I can see how it may "look" cool, but in   
   reality, if someone needs to    
   get a bite to eat or something to drink, they likely *also* need a stretch and   
   a break, time to get away from whatever one is working on.  Clarity 7 to 8.
