   11:50 6/15/2021 Chopper scene change:   
   The dreamer was in a home-like building, possibly adjusting some blinds, the   
   kind that use a pull cord on the right side of the window and have horizontal,   
   blue-green slats of about ½" width (to maybe .75" width) when this sound an   
   an ENORMOUS chopper (   
   helicopter) fills the air outside.  Mind you, the sound of a BIG helicopter is   
   TINY compared to the sound this joker was putting out!  It obviously caught   
   the dreamer's attention, and the dreamer basically "ran" toward the exit to   
   better see what was "   
   outside."  There was just a *hint* of a rotor caught, possibly one of several,   
   possibly the only one, but it was just a hint, because as the dreamer made it   
   "outside," it was as if what *had* been there previously (in terms of possibly   
   a dirt and grass    
   back yard) had been "overlaid" / "replaced" by a grayer looking scene, with   
   dismal debris (and only just enough to give the place the air of abandonment   
   to it) after which I awoke (slightly) with the impression that such is the   
   "illusion" that jihad and    
   shari'a bring to an otherwise bright and sunny place.   
      
   11:59 6/15/2021 Snow Dump (from water drip) / frost shield:   
   The dreamer was observing something akin to a 30-to-40 gallon, plastic garbage   
   bag, ahead by a number of yards in the distance, as if it were collecting /   
   accumulating snow from the side of a mountain, then suddenly dumping that   
   collection as sludgy /    
   slushy water.  I suspect there may've been something *following* that scene,   
   but there's been some time between early this morning and this afternoon, so   
   I'm just typing up some of the quick notes I made earlier.   
      
   12:44 6/15/2021 Contest of Champions?:   
   This next bit is possibly all centered around an event, such as the Contest of   
   Champions (or something LIKE that) at MTSU, a "real life event" that was   
   "canceled" on at least one occasion due to antifa protest scheduled a few   
   miles away, and I *think*    
   last year due to covid, but at any rate:   
      
   In the dream, there is a guy in the rear section of a school bus, with an   
   observation regarding the amount of carry space for instruments, as well as   
   possible storage for illicit things.  The way into campus was along a road   
   (not exactly a duplicate of    
   the one in real life, but relatively close enough for the dreamer to continue)   
   running in a southerly direction from Greenland Drive, which runs east-west   
   IRL.  YEARS ago, IRL, the area to the left of these roads were farmland /   
   pasture, but have since    
   all been built up, but IN THE DREAM, the dreamer sees what looks like a large   
   dirt field off to the left (east) possibly filled with flowers (possibly   
   poppies?)    
      
   Some guy is concerned regarding how best to exit the scene later (following   
   the CoC IRL, traffic is one of those parking lot fluster clucks where everyone   
   gets gridlocked for what seems an eternity.)  The dreamer spoke to the person   
   and basically said, "   
   You (everyone) do your own thing," similar to "you do you and I'll do me."    
   That seemed to hush the guy who was trying to create a ruler-type position on   
   directing people.   
      
   There was a scene with (the dreamer's) high school marching band, and some   
   type of music test (from the quick notes.)  All I can remember at this point   
   was that they seemed to have some rehearsed / memorized piece of music ready   
   to play, and the dreamer    
   felt relatively confidant of playing the piece.  (Ever had one of those dreams   
   where you have something to do and have NO clue as to what you're about to   
   do?  This wasn't one of those:  the dreamer was *relatively* confidant.)  What   
   somewhat "humbled"    
   the dreamer was that the dreamer was marching in FIRST in a line of folk (band   
   members) following behind.  There *was* a drum-major type gal off to the   
   dreamer's right, similar to how a drill instructor leads alongside a squad or   
   platoon on parade.     
   Something about the toe-first step seemed a bit awkward, but that's often what   
   marchers do:  they may have a step that is "different" from a natural gait.    
   In one small snippet, the dreamer was demonstrating 6-to-5 (5 yards covered   
   using a measured 6    
   strides) and 8-to-5 (using 8 steps to cover 5 yards).  This toe-first step   
   felt like an 8-to-5 sized step.   
      
   Sliding chains overhead (purchase?) / appt for 6-14/15:  the dreamer was in a   
   kind of warehouse-like area, with overhead racks upon which looped chains   
   could be swung / arranged, and some sense that an individual could "purchase"   
   either a "position" of    
   chains or possibly the chains themselves, that wasn't entirely clear.  And   
   while the dreamer thought they were "interesting," they did not "hold" the   
   dreamer's attention.  After that, there was a view of a piece of paper with   
   some kind of appointment    
   written down on it for "6-14/15" meaning "June 14th / 15th" and whether that   
   meant a two day event, or a possible window of two distinct days, is unknown.    
   Nor was there a YEAR associated with the dates.  HOWEVER:  TODAY (IRL) *IS*   
   JUNE (6) 15 !!  Which    
   marks the FIRST TIME of which I'm aware that I've dreamt of the date *in a   
   dream* OF the date IN REAL LIFE!   
      
   Took a morning nap, not expecting to sleep so long, but just before noon,   
   there were a series of dreams centered around "Automotive Service," a   
   car-repair (mechanic, not so much body art) shop, where in real life I started   
   as a client, became a (computer)   
    consultant, and eventually an employee for at least 2 separate occasions.  At   
   any rate, IN THE DREAM there was some issue regarding a safe, that it had been   
   opened in some manner OTHER than authorized, and that something had been   
   taken, however, the    
   dreamer had a snippet of having a STACK of currency and "splitting" it in   
   half.  There's more of a sense that the dreamer was an observer than that of   
   being a thief, so what this may be about I have no idea.  It did, however,   
   encourage me to look up my    
   former merchant / client / boss on Facebook this morning, and send out a   
   "friend request," although it doesn't look as if he's much into Facebook OR   
   keeps it tightly "closed."
