      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              8:29 AM 10/17/2020 Tried to get started with this       9:51 AM 10/17/2020 After distractions from YouTube and other sciency stuff....              The Night "Flew" By....              I had so many dreams about flying, will try to remember all that I can here...              Married to Gina! Car issue w/keys, location:              I may as well start with a series of dreams that are PROBABLY all related, so       I'll attempt to weave them all into a story (as the discrete dream elements       seem muddled a bit by now):              There was some bit about driving from point A (near Greenland Dr. / MTSU /       Lascassas Road) or possibly hitching a ride? to an area further north (point       B) along Old Lascassas Road. At that location, there was a scene whereby the       dreamer was requesting        the use of a car which belonged to (or contained) at least 2 other females       (and if they were representative of ex-wives and/or girlfriends, such was not       sensed during the scenario (other than the sense that they were basically of       the bridesmaid type.)        There was some kind of issue involving the driver's (left front) seat       position, and the use of a small, flat metal key (like the kind used for cheap       locks, diaries, tool boxes, luggage, etc.) that was used for the purpose of       adjusting the head rest, used        from a position standing outside the car, reaching in. The adjustment (key)       seemed to turn about half-way (counter-clockwise) then went a bit askew, as if       the tumbler into which the key was inserted was sluggish / possibly jammed.        The dreamer realized        this was being left "undone" or incompletely turned, but there seemed to be a       pressing issue regarding time, so the thought was a rather quick "I'll get       back to this later" as the dreamer set off, FLYING, as it were, back south       along Old Lascassas Road (       toward Greenland Drive.) The speed being traveled was rather significant, and       the dreamer tried to "mentally press" the speed to a higher rate, but with no       change in velocity. If anything, the mental effort may have "clouded" up the       dream slightly.              There was another scenario where the dreamer was viewing the male (myself,       apparently) along with some other guy (a "best man", perhaps?) wearing what       seemed like old uniforms / formal wear from the days of Doctor Zhivago.        Another culture reference        might be the house uniforms worn by royalty in Castle Windsor back in the days       when Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were still courting, except those are of       a much darker (royal blue and gold) color scheme. In the dream, the guys were       wearing mostly        white uniforms with possibly some black and/or gold braids. If you are       familiar with the old band uniforms worn in the '60s and '70s, that kind of       fits the bill here.              There's another scene, far less visual, where the dreamer is mentally thinking       "I'm married to Gina!!" as if the revelation were surprising, perhaps a touch       of pride, certainly of joy, and basically built on top of love. There was       still a bit of shock        to the sense of having trouble believing it actually happened after all these       years, but I have to put in a note here from last night, while watching TV in       real life, having a kind of waking vision (mental image flash) of Gina,       perhaps more age-       appropriate, making some kind of emotional appearance ahead of me, on my left,       looking directly towards me. It was more like a look of concerned anger mixed       with concerned anguish, and if flash images could speak, I suspect she'd have       given me an ear-       full. It was enough to make me ponder why I had such a flash (waking!) image       pop into mind, and what it could mean, more specifically.              Flying atop a school building? Being "sought"...              The dreamer is in a room similar to a restaurant setting, with some guy and       possibly his accomplice / sidekick at the far booth. and they have the very       palpable sense of being in pursuit of the dreamer for the purpose of serving a       summons. From personal        experience, I know that when one gets a summons directly, one has no choice       but to appear in court. However, I also know that if one can AVOID being       issued a summons, well, that feeling was what the dreamer felt, and       immediately left the building and "       flew" atop a round building (like a very short silo, only 1 or 2 stories tall,       but much wider, like a fat can of green beans) located on the west end of the       school playground area behind Reeves Rogers school (where the old dugouts and       ball field used to        be) and "looked down" as if to see that at that position, the server had no       way of actually serving the dreamer. Aside from the flying aspect of this       dream, it was still clarity 7-ish to 8-ish, as the people serving the summons       were unclear, and the        reason FOR the summons was unknown.              Sword in the house:              An antagonist was approaching the dreamer with a short, thin, curved blade,       likely a jihadist with the intent of taking off my head, but the dreamer was       cool-headed enough to "pull back" a bit, in order to access his sword and pull       it from its black,        leather sheath. Note: that in real life, I actually have a sword made from       Pakistani steel, bought from a renaissance fair. This was the very sword       represented in the dream. The sword length alone PLUS the length of my reach       certainly exceeded the        antagonist's reach with his shorter sickle. I extended it forward and poked       him in his chest, and advised him to back out and go away, which he did.        Clarity 7-ish-8-ish, as the reason for the antagonist's presence was not       mentioned (although it is        likely due to the book I edited— tinyurl.com/ThyKingdomCome-Book1 .)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
