   Man, I really do get the days mixed up at times.  Yesterday (the 25th) was a   
   SATURDAY, whereas I listed it as "Friday" in the subject line.  OOF!  At any   
   rate....   
      
   Last night / this morning, I had something like a "story in progress" of an   
   individual, the dreamer, exiting a vehicle that felt as if it belonged to   
   somebody else, yet the dreamer somehow felt protective of it.  The car's owner   
   (a teen / possibly    
   college student) had left the car unlocked, and the dreamer felt that this   
   could lead to a break-in / possible theft / damage of anything in the   
   interior, and was still about the area of the car when in fact some type of   
   unwarranted activity came into    
   the scene.   
   The dreamer was being defensive for the vehicle and its owner.  Whatever   
   scuffle may have been approaching the vehicle left the scene (possibly "fled")   
   as the vehicle owner returned to the vehicle, and (IF I'm remembering this   
   correctly!) tossed the keys    
   to the dreamer.  ("I" recall catching the keys.)  It felt akin to "you defend   
   it, you keep it."   
      
   This scene was followed by the dreamer continuing into campus (at a place   
   similar to MTSU) for what felt like a semester final of some sort (possibly   
   even that exam a graduate student takes *in order to qualify* for   
   graduation.)  The dreamer was    
   approaching one building wherein a lady (perhaps in her 40s? 50s?) was on the   
   outside of the door, locking up, as if "anyone not inside when the door is   
   locked is late / excluded from taking the test" but the dreamer was able to   
   pull the door open (as    
   the key had not yet latched the door) and made it "in" to take the test.   
   The NEXT part was *finding* the testing location, only someone (20-ish) seated   
   at a desk was confirming with the dreamer that from this point one was to keep   
   completely silent and keep one's answers to oneself so as to avoid any hint of   
   impropriety, such    
   as cheating.  The dreamer nodded agreement and continued on, only it was   
   unclear as to exactly where the test location *was*, and in fact it the scene   
   seemed to open up to the courtyard behind the (old) Student Union Building   
   (between the LRC and the (   
   old) Todd Library) rather than into a controlled testing environment.  There   
   was also some minor, hushed / quiet verbal interaction between the dreamer and   
   someone else, but as to who or why is unclear, other than perhaps the dreamer   
   may have been trying    
   to find the exact location of where the test was being given.  Clarity 9 due   
   to the plot complexity but the lighting was more like a 9-, as if it had been   
   an slightly overcast day rather than a bright and sunny day.
