   The dreamer had a bit of "journeying" throughout the dream world, and all the   
   "segments" seemed to blend in together, all occurring sometime between the   
   crack of dawn and shortly before 9 AM, CDT.   
      
   And while I'm a bit uncertain at this later point as to the order in which   
   they occurred, here's something of a narrative put together in an *attempt* to   
   write it out as a single thread:   
      
   The dreamer was involved in some type of vehicular traffic (LIKELY based upon   
   watching a James Bond movie involving moving vehicular traffic of various   
   types) only this was limited to some type of land-based travel, such as cars   
   or similar vehicles.   
      
   It seems as though the dreamer got to the target destination without too much   
   trouble, and found himself (to be shown later) in something like a local   
   restaurant (or possibly a bar) where the table(s) were accessible from a front   
   aisle as well as with    
   only a half-wall on the other side, like at a Red Lobster, where people could   
   speak to anyone on a table from the other side (which helps the wait staff to   
   see who is in need of service.)   
      
   There's a group of guys seated at one table, discussing something of a nature   
   *similar* to that of planning a [power play] or [mutinous-type nature] but the   
   dreamer is standing as if in the position where a waiter would be, in the   
   aisle aside of the    
   table, looking *at* the table of guys (who were planning, possibly jihadists   
   in today's world) when a friend of mine from real life, "RR" (for "Ronnie R")   
   appears on the far side of the table, looking down at the group as if having   
   overheard and now    
   thwarting their plans, or at *least* significantly interrupting their   
   conversation.   
      
   RR looks at the dreamer and asks something like, "Are you any part of this?"   
   to which the dreamer makes something like a lower sweep with both arms (and   
   hands) to the left, as if wiping away all that was there (plotters and   
   schemes) before him.   
      
   Someone (possibly RR) mentioned, "That's a pretty [{neat | cool | smooth}]   
   move there, Richard," acknowledging that the move (*similar* to that of an   
   Hawian Luau move) indicated an absolute answer in just a sweep of the arms.    
   And while that segment had    
   a clarity of around 9-, there were/are more elements to the dream, wherein the   
   dreamer is dealing with a suit of clothes (or possibly things that go into   
   pockets) and as *nearly all* of that has evaporated, it only had/has a clarity   
   rating of around 8--.   
      
   There's another segment wherein the dreamer is "checking out" / surveying /   
   looking around the outside of a *very* non-descript building, roughly 2   
   stories (maybe 2½) and was viewed as from one (right, closest) corner such   
   that the leftward measurement    
   of the building was basically obscure, but the dreamer *thought* that it was   
   supposed to be a Wal*Mart building, of about the size of a Kroger's (the   
   smaller buildings, back before they moved into much larger malls.)   
      
   What's more, the *outside* of the building was *almost uniformly* medium-dark   
   brown, like the color of mud or possibly wood.  It actually had something of a   
   "camouflage" appearance to it, like it was being disguised / decoarated so as   
   to "blend in" with    
   the more jungle-like background of the building.   
      
   The dreamer went around the (front right) corner of the building, looking for   
   an entrance, and having *some* type of discussion with *someone* (or perhaps   
   with "the female mind" of my late cousin, Linda, or possibly her -living-   
   sister, Sharon) regarding    
   "Sweeny Todd" or *something* to do with the nature of the exterior of the   
   building being artfully decorated (sort of like an urban Christo or   
   something— christojeanneclaude.net) and noticed that the area where the   
   front (corner) doors *might* have been    
   had a somewhat different, beige-like color to them (like a darker shade of   
   ivory) and, as the dreamer got closer to the building, could actually see the   
   vines & leaves contoured shaping of the exterior wall / paint.   
      
   At any rate, the dreamer imagined that the somewhat ivory-colored zone *might*   
   have been there to indicate the doors, went forward and *opened* the door into   
   the building, and saw (for a brief instant) the contents of the interior, much   
   like taking a    
   glimpse into a Wal*Mart, and seeing the rows and shelves of merchandise.    
   However, the dream ended *just* at that point, clarity 9-ish.  (The artistic   
   exterior / disguise of the building really threw / throws a "variable" at   
   trying to put a clarity    
   rating to the dream.)   
      
   That's all for now— I'm *fairly certain* there was a bit more, and it was   
   all *relatively* well-retained after waking, however, the time between waking   
   and writing (it's now after 12 noon, CDT) allows for a significant amount of   
   "evaporation" of the    
   details of any given dream.  Sometimes I think I may wait awhile so as to   
   *reduce* the amount of detail being shared in this journal / post.
