Incredible!!! To me, these indicate how we are so feebly aware of all the detailed huge interactions of earth's processes. We inhabit a truly living breathing planet!!!

Sirens

sirens, wolf howls of the city

3:11am CST Friday 3 March 2000

Five minutes ago, as I was reading about various hypothoses of our solor system, police cars began screaming past my apartment at full siren and full acceleration. I stepped outside to watch them. Within a 3 minute span no fewer than 9 cars blasted by, the last 4 or 5 without siren, but still at full accleration.

Out of sight, their wailing sirens were still faintly audible, reminding me of coyotes howling in the movies. (I've never experienced coyotes howling in real life.. Oh wait yes I have a few times at my dad's house)

I believe I heard the distinct blare of a hook-and-ladder fire engine within the faint din.

I pondered ways to see what was up:

  • Jump in my car and chase them.
  • Call 911 and ask "what's up?"
  • call the non emergency number and ask what's up
  • flag down the next cop that tries to drive past
  • flag down the wrecker that is driving past now
  • turn on news radio KTRH
  • somehow fly over the city for an aerial view

    None of the options appealed, except for radio or flying, but KTRH is broadcasting Art Bell, and I don't think I can easily fly over the city.

    Okay, I just stepped back outside and I can no longer hear sirens. The mysterious event must be under control. It's 3:29am.

    dream

    8:41am CST Friday 3 March 2000

    I just woke up from a dream where I was living in a house with several people that I didn't really trust, and I found a gun left carelessly under a desk. I had to sneak away to call the police and explain to them the situation but I couldn't call 911 because the phone was triggered to alarm if 911 was called so I had to call the non emergency police number, but I couldn't look it up. I finally guessed the number after tons of tries and then I woke up as I was on hold waiting for them to answer...

    I'm just writing to express lovely gratitude that my life is so much simpler than this dream! I woke up feeling thankful to be in my waking reality!!
