      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              I've already been to a church service this morning, so much of what was dreamt       about last night/this morning has already evaporated, but one series sorta       "stuck with me" until now, so here it is:              The dreamer was in a room, similar to an apartment bedroom or living area, and       there were insects *all over* the otherwise white ceiling. Not "all over" as       in a carpet, but as an infestation of sorts: not just one or two here or       there, but as perhaps        dozens of black crawly things, most around ½"–1", although there was *one       particular* "stick insect" that was perhaps 6" in length, and more like a       bluish-white with a darker perimeter, one that was "curious" yet not       "threatening," as it appeared to        be traveling by itself, rather than as the swarm of other insects. (Could       possibly be analogous to a preacher leading a congregation of sinners???)              At any rate, there were several "clips" but as some time has passed since this       morning, I'm gonna try to "stitch them together" as if they were a single       theme (which they seem to be anyways) so—              The dreamer was standing outside a front door entrance to a home (possibly an       apartment / duplex / house for rent) with some intention of entering the home,       although it wasn't just like walking up to a door and walking in: it was more       like there was        need for a key or for someone to answer from within. This scene appears to       have been something of a "stand alone" scene, as it did not exactly segue       perfectly into another dream, but it certainly "stitches well" into the       overall narrative.              In another clip, there appear to be at least 3 people involved, one of them       being very nearly a 1st-person perspective (yet still partly either 2nd or 3rd       person) of someone about to pay a (female?) landlord a monthly rent check.        There may have been one        or two other females about to provide that same landlord checks for half the       rent amount. Now whether they were combining ½ with ½ in order to pay a       full month's rent, or whether they had two separate rents and were only able       to pay ½ each at that        point, well, that was left unclear. I do recall hearing the two girls (maybe       it was just one female? or one female with a split-mind regarding something?)       making something of an excuse (or excuses) as to why it was only ½ rather       than a full payment.        Meanwhile, the dreamer (or someone *exceptionally* close to the dreamer's       camera perspective) provided the landlord / lady a check for a "full amount."        The numerical amount was not observed, however, the narrative mind of the       dreamer understood (and        either the dreamer *or* the person paying the check) the check was for a full       amount, and remarked to the landlady something akin to: "I realize how       refreshing it must be to get the full amount in a single check." Clarity       9-ish. The bugs on the ceiling        bit may have been a genuine 7 (symbolic.)              There may well have been other dreams, but that's all for now.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
