   Had a few sections, like before 6:30 AM, then on the "morning couch" then   
   another, that went something like this:   
      
   One of the earlier dreams (before 6:30 AM) involved the dreamer, the dreamer's   
   vehicle, the vehicle's car keys, and a group of young adults (possibly late   
   teens (?) early 20s?) with at least one female and perhaps one male among the   
   group (of about 3 to    
   5?) but the group was basically just "extras" with no apparent function. A   
   "mindless group of followers," likely. In *any* group, there is only *one*   
   mind.   
      
   At any rate, the setting was similar to a public restaurant or some type of   
   food-based establishment, likely at a dinner event (early evening dark, such   
   as in winter in the northern hemisphere.) There was some type of movement   
   from within the location    
   to the car out in the parking area, only as the group went past the dreamer,   
   the dreamer was naked (and male, and "I felt" the slight embarrassment that   
   would come with being naked in a public location) although this was only   
   casually remarked upon in    
   passing by one of the (female) group members.   
      
   The activity shifted out to the car (in the night, yet somewhat lit parking   
   lot) and the apparent *lack* of keys; the dreamer was clothed now, apparently   
   in control of the keys to the vehicle. Dream ended, clarity 8+ / 9-.   
      
   In a dream that *probably* occurred *after* the 6:30 doggy-break, likely from   
   the "morning couch" location, the dreamer was viewing a *beautiful, blue* sky   
   with a few, small, white clouds. While the dreamer was admiring the blueness   
   of the sky, there    
   was something "a tad off" regarding the clouds, as if they were possibly made   
   of fine lines of light rather than water vapor. At least, one *edge* of a   
   cloud seemed peculiar, nearly similar to what a ball of cotton looks like   
   after gently tugging at a    
   tuft along the outer edge.   
      
   As this was all about the sky (and the cloud(s)) no other activity was   
   involved, nor even any ground perspective whatsoever. Clarity 10- ! (There   
   are rarely any 10-level dreams. Those get into the "lucid" category, wherein   
   the dreamer *knows* oneself    
   to be within a dream and thus has a type of "mental control" over what occurs.)   
      
   In one dream, the dreamer was taking a look along Scottland Drive to the   
   north, from "my side" (the west side) of the street, and seeing around two to   
   three (*maybe* 4?) white, paper (lunch-like) baggies with a yellow tickets   
   (like receipt paper)    
   attached at each baggie top, sitting along near the mail boxes, only about 6'   
   away from the curb, laid out as one per address.   
      
   This was (is) one of those things that had the dreamer going, "What the heck   
   is *that* all about?" and thus went to examine one of the bags in front of   
   [the house where I live.] It had a delivery / address ticket on it indicating   
   "1103 Scottland" and    
   was from a service akin to "Grab 'n Go" (or something like that, possibly   
   based on the business, "Grub Hub," but that was not the name on the bag.) It   
   also had a time stamp for time of delivery to be made, much like a future   
   ("timed") order for a pizza    
   delivery.   
      
   It suddenly became apparent that these had been laid out for the postal   
   delivery carrier (who drives a "mail truck" along my route) and the dreamer   
   was appreciating the "coolness" of a postal carrier ordering ahead so that   
   lunch would be ready along the    
   route.   
      
   Now since the dreamer had picked up the bag to examine it, there was the   
   feeling of doubt of being able to replace it exactly as it had been, so the   
   dreamer tried to put it *inside* the mailbox, so that the carrier would   
   actually get it without running    
   over it. (Come to think of it, in order for a right-hand drive vehicle (like   
   a U.S. mail truck) to have gotten the baggie out in the street, it would have   
   needed a left-side door, like a UPS or FedEx truck, in order to retrieve the   
   sack efficiently.)    
   Clarity 9+.   
      
   During the morning routine (which includes prepping a glass of veggie juice   
   and cup of coffee) while looking out the kitchen window at the bird feeder, I   
   did, however, remember an earlier dream wherein a young cottontail rabbit   
   (about 6–8 months old?)    
   managed to jump up onto the bottom rung of the bird feeder (it's a round   
   shape, like a thimble sitting on a round saucer perch) and start nibbling away   
   at the seed the feeds out of the bottom of the feeder along the perch area.    
   Clarity 9+, 10-, though a    
   bit short. The only thing that went through the dreamer's mind was along the   
   lines of "good thing that's not a squirrel (those pesky varmints)" / "It's a   
   rare thing to see a rabbit up there— cute lil' thing— let 'im eat."   
      
   Although, to be fair, I do like the squirrels, it's just that without the   
   squirrel guard in place (a slinky around the pole) they'd eat up *all* the   
   bird feed, and that just gets expensive.   
      
   This next dream was definitely after 6:30 AM, yet before the dream before   
   waking: the dreamer was at a facility *not unlike* some kind of "DCS"   
   (Department of Children's Services) facility, that was in some way a kind of   
   processing area for minors. The    
   dreamer was as if visiting among the children, one young male in particular,   
   when there was observed a horizontal (side-to-side) roughly 3"–4" *gash*   
   along the minor's left arm, *if I recall correctly,* midway above the elbow,   
   below the shoulder, a bit    
   towards the outside of the humerus (upper arm bone) *possibly* as a "defensive   
   wound" but definitely as if a blade of some sort had contact with some   
   external force from the child's left.   
      
   Now for the "grody" part: the gash was *not* bleeding, yet the borders of the   
   skin on both top and bottom (as well as the sides) of the gash were "fresh"   
   looking, as if raw skin that had not properly healed. When the child leaned   
   forwards, the dreamer    
   could see an area of darkness within the skin, which (in somewhat of a medical   
   sense) *alarmed* the dreamer, who told the minor (in a friendly manner) that   
   something needed to be done about that, and [he'd] be right back, or go find   
   someone to help fix    
   it / get him some proper, medical attention.
