   The other day, I wrote down a few tiny scribbles on some dreams I'd had that   
   morning.  Today, I found them (on a discarded newspaper) and read something   
   about a line of people, a pillow, and looking for a house with WiFi.    
   (Possibly something having to    
   do with Putin's personal war against Ukraine?)   
      
   Meanwhile, LAST night / this morning, I had TWO rather unusual dreams with a   
   bit more "staying power," lasting THROUGH the "evaporation" phase of waking   
   up, doing things, and finally settling down to journal the content—   
      
   The first dream involved the dreamer viewing a red, single engine airplane   
   (overhead, fixed wing) with the landing wheels in the *down* (landing)   
   position, although the plane itself was flying *rather* slowly, as if at FULL   
   flaps into a STRONG headwind,    
   although there was no wind detected within the dream.   
      
   The plane was flying north to south in the field that (IRL) is to the north of   
   / behind the Reeves-Rogers school building on Greenland Drive in Murfreesboro,   
   TN.   
      
   Now, sure, sometimes the objects in dreams are simply "symbolic" of things in   
   real life.  For instance, this COULD be related to aircraft in Ukraine, but   
   that's a *bit* of a symbolic stretch.  As far as I (the dreamer) was   
   concerned, it was simply    
   unusual to see a plane that low and slow in that field, *especially* since   
   99.999% of the air traffic in this particular area is "on approach" to (or   
   taking off from) the Murfreesboro Airport a few miles to the north (IRL.)    
   (Planes are on a landing    
   approach over the field, and on a take-off course southwest of the field.)    
   There *have* been (IRL) some planes spotted *on rare occasion* doing pilot   
   training maneuvers, such as instrument practice as well as engine / prop   
   feathering, so as to "glide"    
   with the engine at (or near) idle and the propellers feathered at (nearly) 0°   
   "bite" so that they spin without creating thrust or drag with respect to any   
   oncoming wind.   
      
   Once upon a time, IRL, I asked a pilot to circle over the field so I could get   
   a picture or two, and he radioed the tower to let them know we'd be circling   
   in this particular area.   
      
   BUT IN THE DREAM, this red plane was simply approaching the north (back) side   
   of the school building, which had an ARCHED / sloped roof (like a house)   
   RATHER than the FLAT roof of the building IRL.   
      
   As the plane approached the roof, it slowed *even further* as if doing a type   
   of "touch and go" procedure NORMALLY practiced on an airport runway, in order   
   to practice landings and take-offs in a time and cost efficient fashion.   
   It is unclear (not perfectly remembered) as to whether or not the dream   
   plane's wheels actually touched the roof or not, but the flight pattern   
   followed an upward angle of the sloped / arched roof *as if* the dream pilot   
   had actually touched (or barely    
   grazed) the shingles of the roof.  (IRL, Reeves Rogers has NO shingles to the   
   best of my knowledge!)   
      
   This was followed by a scene wherein the dreamer seemed to be having a word of   
   concern with the pilot regarding pulling such a dangerous stunt (even IF only   
   practicing!) in conjunction with a school building.  What happened next was a   
   bit unexpected:   
      
   A little Nazi storm trooper uniformed guy (similar to the character portrayed   
   by Henry Gibson in the 1960s variety show, "Laugh-In," as well as the original   
   "Blues Brothers" movie with Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi) came up from an   
   easterly direction, AS    
   IF he had come up the driveway of my father's house on Scottland Drive, and   
   appeared to have some type of fascist perspective he was attempting to invoke   
   with the dreamer, still standing out in the middle of the field.  As the   
   dreamer was facing south,    
   the little (as in "short of stature") Nazi dream character was approaching   
   from the dreamer's left (no surprise there!)   
      
   The dreamer simply "exited [ended] the dream" rather than get into an argument   
   with him.  Clarity anywhere from 7 to 9+ (as it did appear to be a well-lit   
   setting.)   
      
   The next dream / vision / scenario is a bit more difficult to describe:   
      
   The dreamer was in a conversation with a devil-looking entity:  Imagine the   
   Satan character portrayed in the South Park cartoons, only in basic black with   
   a *very* thin, vague, whitish outline (outlined in thin contrasts of light.)   
      
   The relative image size of the dream character seemed also to be about human   
   sized as if standing apart, at a distance of around 20' or so, *roughly*   
   "across the living room" or perhaps at the other side of a conference room.   
   There wasn't anything "terrifying" or "terrorizing" about the scene, only that   
   the entity *did* appear devil-like.   
   I have a *sneaking* hunch this *may* be in regards to an ongoing, online   
   discussion I've been having with someone of "unspecified" (if not *highly*   
   questionable) gender.  Clarity "questionable."
