   Yesterday was the Autumnal Equinox, and I noticed that by standing on the   
   northern tip of the back bottom step and looking westward (which appears a hair   
   left due to the physical orientation of the property, house, etc.) the sun may   
   be seen as "setting" (through the trees along the horizon) directly over the   
   northernmost gatepost along the back property line.  Earlier, it was viewed   
   rising in the east (again, viewed as a hair to the left due to orientation)   
   from   
   the kitchen window across the front yard, directly over the lamp post, but   
   again, through the trees along the horizon.   
      
   But that was "yesterday," IRL.  (Posting this on 9/24.)   
      
   Last night, I had several dreams, mainly in 3 sections of the night.   
      
   The first dream ended around just before 12:35 AM. It involved the dreamer in   
   an   
   area similar to being outside, in an area similar to where authorized vehicles   
   could maneuver between buildings (where normally the area is reserved for   
   bicycles and pedestrians) similar to the courtyard between the KUC and the   
   Davis   
   Science Building.   
      
   The dreamer was making efforts to maintain close enough proximity so as to be   
   able to communicate face-to-face with a female, who *felt* very much like my   
   soulmate / other-half (Gina, in real life) only there was some other guy   
   (believe it or not, named "Anthony," which also happens to be the name of her   
   first ex-husband) who was somehow present, and somehow distracting the   
   dreamer's   
   attention from the female ("Gina.")   
      
   While quoting the words verbatim is a bit beyond the evaporation level of the   
   dream, the gist of the conversation went *something* like this:   
      
   (Anthony): Why are you bothering me?   
   (Dreamer): I'm trying to communicate with Gina.   
   (Anthony): If you want to talk with Gina, why are you talking with me?"   
      
   The dreamer realized "I need to be talking with Gina" and switched his   
   attention   
   to her, where she seemed to be in the driver's seat (American, left side) of   
   something like a U-Haul truck, of perhaps around a 14-footer, possibly 16',   
   although it didn't *quite* feel like the size of an 18 footer or larger.   
      
   The dreamer mentioned how "I've been trying to marry you for the past *40   
   years*..." and I'm fairly certain the phrase "40 years" was mentioned *twice*   
   before the dream ended.  Clarity 9- / 8+ (as the setting of the dream seemed   
   more like evening dusk than daytime.)   
      
   The second major dream from last night came around before 5:30 AM, possibly   
   around 4:30 AM, and involved another outdoor scene, only this was in a setting   
   *similar* to my home, only the backfield IRL was more like a small lake, with   
   the driveway/back yard amounting to the land forming the shoreline, which was a   
   gradual slope directly into the water, no sandy beach.   
      
   The dreamer spotted something rather large, green, and eel-like, possibly a   
   giant (*GIANT*) sea slug, snake, or eel of some sort.   
      
   On taking another look, the creeping thing was sliding in a motion very much   
   like a worm going into the soil, or a sea slug moving directly over a   
   horizontal   
   bar.  (It was smooth motion, without wriggling or zig-zagging of any kind.)   
      
   The dreamer was actually *excited* at seeing the creature, in the sense of   
   "WOW!!  DID YOU SEE THAT???"  (He) turned (his) attention into the house,   
   calling others to come out and *see* this thing, however, when the dreamer   
   turned back to look at the critter, the dream ended.  Clarity 9- (as again, the   
   background was darker rather than sunnier.)   
      
   The third dream section actually took place on the (longer) living room couch,   
   as I'd moved there from the bed, likely during a morning routine of having let   
   the dog out.   
      
   Sadly, the only thing I can remember about that last dream was that it ended at   
   the end of the last second with Britney Spears for some reason.  She *could*   
   have been Taylor Swift for a brief flash before turning into Britney, and I'm   
   *fairly certain* "she" was some other person prior to that, during the normal   
   interaction section of the dream, although I'm unable to recall what that   
   interaction was about at this moment, while typing this up.  Clarity: nearly   
   all   
   but evaporated.
