   It's late Wednesday evening (after 8:30 PM) as I type this, so bear with me a   
   moment as a good bit of this has "evaporated" since this morning, but:   
      
   My mother is going in to have a displaced fracture of her upper left humerus   
   surgically repaired tomorrow morning, so I felt it prudent to get this posted   
   now, before I forget.   
      
   One of the dream scenes involves the dreamer making a remark to "Helen" as if   
   to my older brother's current wife, "M" (who uses a peculiar yet not totally   
   uncommon nickname in place of her real name.) The remark had the "feel"   
   within the dream of the    
   dreamer having mistakenly referred to "M" as "Helen" even though the dreamer   
   felt within the dream that *both* of these particular females had the same   
   name. It was the most unusual feeling, being within a dream, feeling one had   
   mistakenly used one "   
   Helen" to refer to another "Helen" even though, in real life, there is only   
   *one* "Helen" and *one* "M".   
      
   The next scene was even more unusual, as the dreamer *thought* (he?) was   
   inadvertently looking into a bedroom where a male and female were in the   
   missionary position, so the dreamer "averted his gaze" for a moment,   
   *thinking* it was his brother and "   
   Helen" ("M") although it *could* have been a scene from my *early* 30s when   
   the real Helen and I conceived my son, Charles.    
      
   When the dreamer looked back to see if they were finished, the male was   
   "withdrawing" *from* the female. That was a clear, undeniable "view," and the   
   dream ended.   
      
   It was only after I awoke that it later occurred to me that *could* have been   
   a view of my *own* conception, back in October of 1960. After all, my dad at   
   age 30 would've looked pretty much like either my brother OR myself at that   
   same age. Rather than    
   give this a typical "clarity" rating, due to the confusion of the opening   
   misunderstanding and the "R" and "X" rated nature of the end scenes, I'll just   
   leave it as it is.
