Dream

10:14am JST Thursday 24 August 2006

Inside a rock quarry home with my father Obi-wan Kenobi, I was coming back home from work when all the cars in the large parking lot seemed to be gone. Like 90 percnt of the cars were taken during the day. I couldn' find mine where I usually parked it, so I called my dad and he was like, "actually I moved it today; stay there and I'll come show you where it is."

So I stayed there and he arrived, taking me down to a short cut path to where he had parked the car. However, the short cut was blocked, so he was like, "okay, this is an even more secret short cut" and he began to drive backwards down into a tunnel that was a railroad line, though he had taken no precaution to ensure a train wasn't on it.

We got well into the tunnel and a train was on its way, so we picked the car up onto a little ledge up on the side, overlooking the train line. The train got closer and closer, though we could not see it due to the track curving out of sight, but the light was getting brighter, and I looked back to make sure my dad was all prepared, and he was gone. Vanished somewhere leaving me in nearly plain view of the train.

The train turned out to only be two cars long. I was certain the driver did not see me, but the conductor in back would have a longer time to gaze back my direcion given the track went straight for a while before curving out of sight the other direction.

It appears I must have been spotted, for as the lights dwindled a large goose came up through that tunnel, ready to pluck me off the side of the wall as a bite sized morsel, but my dad was on the goose's back, trying to reign it back and ultimately kill it. I noted that its eyes were critical to its abilities, so I shouted for my dad to stab its eyes out, which he did and the goose was destroyed.

I climbed up and over the wall and over the ledge to safety on the other side, away from where trains could see us. My mom, Leia, was there, generally supportive of my father's technique for saving me, etc.

I went to sleep and soon noticed my pet had come to sit on my chest. It could feel its weight and fuzziness. I didn't remember having a pet anymore, nor if it was a rabbit or cat, so this woke me up.

It turned out to be my pillow covered in janette's pillow case.

pretty good. I was awake through the parts that I was supposed to remain awake. I did see some moving away dream motion during floating part.

Great chat with Colleen tonight, and video chat for a while, including sharing slide.com shows.

I've finished my map thing just enough to show a few people the first 5 days of my TJ Bike journey: /cgi-bin/maps?journeyID=1 Intentionally not linking it because I don't want everyone/thing hitting it just yet.

Oh, and it doesn't work in Internet Explorer. Get Firefox.
