   Gonna start today with the dream regarding a "stolen" PIN or possibly a "key   
   card" or some such security device, which allows a thief (kid or kids) to gain   
   access to a "secure" area, possibly a gated neighborhood or storage plaza.    
   The scene was dark,    
   night, yet softly backlit, such as a full moon in a city with light pollution,   
   the point being that the dreamer "saw" a kind of back yard, with a shed /   
   small building in the back "right" corner (presuming he was facing west— the   
   "back right" corner is    
   the NW corner with respect to the lot in which the dreamer was located.)   
   For those who are directionally challenged, compass directions **on a   
   compass** are labeled/printed as:   
    N   
   EW   
    S   
   but because the needle always points NORTH, when one turns "left" one is   
   facing WEST, or when facing "right" the needle points to EAST, so actual   
   directions (withOUT the use of a compass) are actually:   
     N   
   W E   
     S   
   So when I list directions in dreams, they are as if there is NO compass device   
   present.  Someone facing "west" is facing "left" with respect to facing   
   "north" which is "straight ahead."  In a dream, one is typically NOT aware of   
   which direction one is    
   facing, so a "sense" of "north" is interpreted as "up" or "straight ahead,"   
   but sometimes "straight ahead" (in this case, the "back yard") gets related to   
   "real life," which in my case is "west."   
      
   At any rate, this "shed" / building in the NW corner of the yard ("back right"   
   from the camera's perspective, assuming it was facing W) "felt" as if it was   
   slightly beyond the actual land property line, as if it were "sticking out" in   
   some way.   
      
   The action picks up where a "theft" is detected as being in progress, and the   
   dreamer gives chase to the kid(s) / thief (thieves) which leads into an area   
   more congested with buildings (in essence, the suspect(s) elude(s) pursuit.)   
      
   There is some follow-up discussion with a female with the aura of being the   
   person responsible for the security leak, as if she'd given out the PIN or   
   keycard as if by "accident" or by having been "tricked" in some way.  There's   
   a sense that theft has    
   occurred not just once, but *twice*, and the dreamer is a touch "steamed" that   
   the female has not taken steps to change the security measure(s) in place.    
   (Clarity 7-ish, maybe 8 in places.)  Dream ends.   
      
   There were LOTS of dreams, practically a dozen, but I'm just listing the ones   
   that have stuck around as "memorable":   
      
   This dream close to before waking involved the dreamer in a kind of very large   
   factory or warehouse building (huge cube in shape) with a view towards the   
   ceiling, regarding the heating / cooling of the area.  There is a barely   
   visible angle on the fans    
   at two of the corners of the building (let's just say N and S ends of the west   
   wall) but the flow of air (as well as its temperature) is being "envisioned"   
   such that what one normally does NOT see *is* seen.  There's some thought as   
   to the sun shining    
   down upon the roof, and the possible conversion of sunlight into (electrical)   
   energy as well as heat.  I've no idea what this was about, other than the   
   analysis of heating & cooling & energy of a building.  Clarity 8-  (could've   
   been clearer....)   
      
   There was some type of school gym-class clip wherein the dreamer was simply   
   observing a small one-on-one competition (game) between two of my school chums   
   from back at Reeves-Rogers elementary school (grades 1-6)— I'd say this was   
   around grade 4,    
   possibly up through 6.  They gym teacher [short story here about my real life   
   gym teacher, who (as I later discovered/eventually came to understand) was the   
   first professional lesbian I'd ever encountered in real life.  I remember   
   thinking her name was "   
   Mrs." when she was introduced, but she clearly said her name was "Miss" (or   
   "Ms" / "Mz") and I was wondering why such a nice-looking lady as herself was   
   unmarried, despite her physical tom-boyish appearance] comes into the scene   
   and rounds up another of    
   my school-chums, so that we can have a 2-on-2 team competition.  I recall   
   telling her that the two other guys had a current score of 2 points each, but   
   the dream ended.  Clarity 8-.  Sure, I could name 2 of the kids, but what's   
   the point?  The 3rd was    
   likely someone who'd moved away IRL, and was not clearly defined whatsoever in   
   the dream.
