   Dream before waking involved the dreamer in the company of a female *similar*   
   to   
   an acquantance from the '80s, C.C.C., who was a short, bubbly, energetic   
   package   
   (fetching figure, but slightly more on the farm-wife side than the model side)   
   with short, blonde hair.   
      
   However, in the dream, it appeared that the dreamer was making a video much   
   like   
   with a mounted camcorder (on a pole) so that the dreamer could get into the   
   video *with* the female, much like a selfie-style recording.   
      
   The playback (or monitor) of the video showed a type of blended visual, as if   
   recording in ultraviolet as well as in infrared (where skin temperature showed   
   as *white light,* whereas in ultraviolet, teeth tend to be   
   yellowish-bluish-white, whereas skin appears more bluish-darkish.)   
      
   The female was wearing something akin to a knit, black wool pull-over cap with   
   white + marks of about 2" in length, 1" in width, crossed, like *large, FAT* +   
   signs.  There were around 4 of them, ± 1 (from 3 to 5) so they were as white   
   light, along with her face and neck, and the dreamer (looking like a younger   
   "me") was visible in the frame, looking at the camera, then looking to her and   
   saying something *like*: "You look so white in the video, I could almost kiss   
   you."   
      
   At that point, her image in the play back *dimmed* facially, as in [darkened   
   from its state of mostly light] and she had a touch of a concerned look on her   
   face, to which the dreamer replied, "No worry, I said *almost* kiss you."   
      
   There was a curious point somewhere from the start of the playing back of the   
   video, where the normal-color image *switched* to the IR/UV combo image.  It   
   was   
   as if, during the playback of the video, the dreamer *remembered* activating   
   the   
   switch for the camera filter, which took a *moment* to activate.  This is   
   *difficult* to describe because it's *as if* trying to describe *two different   
   timelines* that were running *concurrently* even though the memory of the   
   "initial" recorded was remembered *during* the playback!  Clarity affected by   
   memory, IR and UV elements.   
      
   This dream *may* be interpreted as a type of "playback" of how reality "played   
   out" as a dream scene.  There was a period of significant thought (IRL) back in   
   those years, where I'd seriously considered various future paths with C.C.C.,   
   but they all seemed to "fall away" due to other circumstances in the overall   
   environment of those days.
