   Dreamer was driving a vehicle, following a female driver in her own vehicle, at   
   a moderately / seemingly high rate of speed, yet not considered "dangerously"   
   high in the moment, however, the contour of the road changed without notice,   
   and   
   this change is what is of most interest:   
      
   *Typically,* roads (like the interstate) run almost as flat as can be, with the   
   exception of the occasional mountain pass that either goes up at an angle or   
   down at an angle that requires "truckers' lanes" (going up) and emergency exit   
   brake ramps (going down) that ramp upwards into sand, sufficiently long enough   
   to help a truck that's lost its air brakes come to a safe stop.   
      
   Well, the road being traveled in this dream was like something designed for a   
   roller coaster:  Imagine a backwards "S" shape, similar to a "Z" shape, but   
   curved like an "S".  To "keep it straight in my head" as I type, I'll use the   
   "Z" shape for directional reference:   
      
   The female's car was up ahead, yet on the *lower* (ground) section of the road   
   (like at the base of the "Z" headed on to the right / forward.)   
      
   The dreamer's car was still up on the higher section of the road (akin to the   
   top of the S-like Z shape) and *if* the dreamer had been driving at perhaps a   
   *much* slower speed, the vehicle *may* have clung to the surface as it rolled   
   downwards toward the lower section, but in the dream, the vehicle simply went   
   airborne (off the top of the S-shaped Z) and went "flying / falling" downward   
   to   
   the lower section of the road.   
      
   The car *landed* and continued forward, as if there'd been no damage from the   
   drop, but the dream ended at the point where the vehicle continued moving   
   forwards. The dreamer had *some* sort of thought along the lines of "Let's not   
   do *that* again!" or "I'm still here / intact" or some *general* feeling of   
   astonishment at remaining alive and "on the road," still intent on following   
   the   
   female car, yet the questions regarding "WHAT just HAPPENED?" / general   
   amazement / questions of what/how the event related to "real life" / "reality"   
   basically *ended* the dream right there. Clarity 7 (for symbolic) although 7+ /   
   8- would apply otherwise.  The sensation of flying / dropping / falling while   
   going forwards was pretty cool :-)  Also, I have some *vague* memory of having   
   had a similar dream in the past, but it's like a phantom dream / memory.    
   (Maybe   
   I've posted it and forgotten??)   
      
   There were a number of other dreams, one oriented on prepared food (like at a   
   restaurant or cafeteria or such) along with some other dream regarding a   
   condition of notoriety (possibly fame at some level of specialization) but   
   they've all jumbled so much along with evaporation that trying to put them into   
   words is like trying to focus on a jumbled pile of jigsaw puzzle pieces.   
      
   There was *one* dream that involved characters that, while seemingly familiar   
   with people in my real-life past, appeared "differently" from how I remember   
   them actually appearing, IRL.   
      
   For example:  IRL, I had a friend in high school, initials DJR, who had a   
   father, Dr. JBR, and the Dr.'s wife (DJR's mother) KTR, who'd moved to   
   Tennessee   
   from Wisconsin in the summer leading into DJR's junior year in high school.    
   Now   
   IRL, DJR's dad, Dr. R, was short, always appeared "soft," but that's likely   
   because I never heard him raise his voice, and also because he was under 6'   
   (perhaps 5'6"?) (I was over 6', even as a freshman) but was *likely* a *tough*   
   little buggar underneath the glasses and professorial demeanor.  (The dad, Dr.   
   R., passed IRL suddenly on Thursday, July 8, 2016. KTR passed away IRL on July   
   4, 2019.) Now whether the dream prompted the online search I just executed in   
   order to find those dates, or the search prompted the dream, all I can say is,   
   I   
   had the dream this morning (sometime prior to 9 A.M.) began writing this up   
   (somewhere around 12:30 P.M.) and *then* finished researching (around 1 P.M.)   
      
   As to the dream itself, Dr. R. was in the image of a younger, thinner, taller   
   fellow, and KTR was *almost* not visible at all!  But the dreamer was trying to   
   ask about the location of their son (my high school acquaintance, DJR) yet   
   trying to avoid words regarding his having been locked up (IRL) for some   
   crime(s) involving a laptop.  Someone in the dream mentioned his sentence as   
   being "40 years" which is all I can really remember in the way of an exact   
   quote.  (I may have a bit more online searching to do, but he'll have to wait   
   behind a few other projects currently underway.)  Clarity 8-, overall.
