Question and Answer

In a book I am reading it is suggested that one should experiment with posing a question to the mind that is to be answered in dream state. Here are my results:

Question: What was the significance of the moving boxes stacked outside of my home in Dreamworld?

Dream That Followed:

“That’s my kitty.” Brian says to the young man with a grin. Blandora is lying on the floor in front of us. There is a dog with Brian. My intuition tells me it is Haley. Happiness and love surround  us.

June 14th 2011

Colin and I browse a movie selection. He brings one very colorful DVD to my attention. I look at it for a moment and realize it’s a Miazaki film. “Is this a Miazaki?” I say to him. I flip it over, the year reads 1987. I am happy and also shocked that a Miazaki film went so long unknown to me. Kendall is with us.

--------------------------

We are in a long, narrow room. Maybe a school bus. They are passing out three types of textbooks that everyone gets. I am very interested in the fist test I received. I come back to “reality” and realize that I don’t have all the materials I need.

Note: I am quite certain there is a parallel in which may aspects of our time/life at Oak Street, are very much alive and breathing. My focus this week will be to communicate said place/time.

Sometime in June

I am arguing with Uncle Rich. He is being very stubborn. We are in a very crowded house. A narrow walkway. People related to Suzette and Sharon are here.

---------------------------

I am in a store picking between two cookies. They are both thin mint style. One is $2.99 and the other is $.99. I wonder what the difference could be. The lights go down and it is understood that an older female I know will be carrying out some sort of hunting. I remind her that I have done nothing to her. She sneaks me out the back door. I am on a busy street. I am overwhelmed. I realize I got the cookies for free. At the party, Nadra says, “You don’t even  like those (cookies)!” I do not correct her, because I do like them. I reach into the bottom of a fridge for a soda can.

Aliens & Animals

102_1451

We are outside. It is a beautiful day. Sun shining. I am near some sort of fenced lot when the animals begin to roam. They have escaped. They are huge and attacking what seems like everything in sight. As I escape east, an animal tracks me down so I hold very still. I breath deeply. The animal passes. I make it back to the dorms where I find myself in a room that is not mine. I am only wearing a sort dress so I peruse the closet. It is filled with retro clothing maybe from eh seventies. I try on a mauve, long-sleeved button up shirt. I know I’ll need some sort of cold protection. I take the shirt and see that there is a dog in the room. I fear it is one of the wild alien animals and continue to treat it as such, however it doesn’t seem to pose any threat. I take a shower, hoping the dog will leave me alone. It just jumps in. Brian joins me (I am in room 19). We start to make love but hear a jeep

pull up outside of our window. The jeep crew, some of whom we may or may not know, offer to take us to a refuge. However we cannot tell the leaders “what we’ve done” or we will be negatively judged. I think we refuse. Now we are in Brian's car driving north with a few companions. On a busy street we see through a foggy sky, a fleet of quick-moving space ships do twisty, curvy maneuvers. They are blasting some announcement over their communication system. Brian and I are making fun of the address because it seems very obvious. Everything they say seems obvious. All of a sudden a blanket of snow and ice is on all you can see. We panic a bit and start looking for any extra clothing we can pile on. I still am wearing a short dress and the shirt from someone's retro closet. 102_1450 I spy a hat, one of those kind with fur on he inside. A girl we are with grabs it first but soon I spy another similar to it. After driving for a bit we realize that there is no more snow. We reach a mountain. The road to it, you can spot all sorts of perversely large animals. A result of the “Recent Panic”. We traverse a rocky path alongside the mountain. Inlaid eye level in the mountain side are short, wide windows. I look inside and see a classroom laboratory. The people inside don’t seem to be concerned about the “Recent Panic”.

 

I am at Suzette and Kenny’s house. I enter the basement through the sliding glass doors. Kenny is sleeping on the couch. As I go upstairs I am thinking about the safety of Maya and Mom. 102_1452 Suzette assures me they are safe. There is a black man smiling at me sitting on the couch. Sharon appears to be very frail. I tell Suzette i plan on walking back, but she insists on giving me a ride.

Sidewalk Ninja

 

We attempt to attend this public filming of a certain famous Asian news woman. We are all very excited. We must traverse a very steep hill to get to our destination. I decide to leave my bike halfway up the hill. We make it to the top and from there we can see the back side of the filming set. It now becomes increasingly difficult. There are a number of wide stairwells just before a series of moving sidewalks like you would expect in an airport. These sidewalks move fast and once once begins you cannot hesitate to jump on for they all move at different rhythms.102_1506 There were three others with me trying to get to the same place. I ninja style make my way across.

 

Fragments

There is a new place for us to live.

A stadium.

Bunk beds. Sheets. Water.

We are all gathered in theater style seating.

Nadra.

A younger man.

River Retreat


I am at some sort of lodge. I am working. Nadra and maybe Renee are here. They are staying and I am working. Suzette and Kenny are here as well. At some point we are in the river. The river or ocean we are swimming in is accessed by a tall wall/barrier. There is a ladder, wooden, you can climb to get in and out. It is dark, maybe dusk. We realize that the ladder is gone. The two people who swim with me are very worried, I dont' seem to share their panic. I use a little logic and we are safely up the ladder. "I can't believe we didn't realize the ladder was gone!"

In the lodge I go around doing various tasks. I have a sense that I'm half-assing my work. With all the distractions of everyone I know around. I pop in on Kenny for a bit and he is only interested in drinking his huge bottle of whiskey.

I am in some one's room that I should not be. There are many entrance in and out of the rooms in the lodge. In the end I am on a porch speaking with John Schleining.
