1:27pm I wake up.
Dream: I’m in this tiny white freight elevator trying to get as high as I can get. The buttons aren’t working properly. I have to hold down the “UP” bottom in order to move up and let go at just the right time if I want to stop and get out on a certain level. I’m trying to escape from some agency, maybe the FBI. They’ve taken some kind of interest in me or maybe they want me dead. I keep passing different floors and can see doctors working in offices and moving carts around. I finally make it to the top level and get out. They’re nearby. So I run and jump off the roof. I start flying really high and somehow I am traveling through time into the future. I see these humongous trees with huge green leaves and thick branches and a beautiful brown orange lake. I try to land softly on the trees. My dream tells me I’m in Taiwan. Then all of sudden I teleport back in time where the agency is supposed to be chasing me and I’m in the arms of a beautiful girl I’m supposed to be in love with. We’re concerned they will find us. She tells me that at least 10 years have passed since I left. It looks as though she hasn’t aged at all, still young and full of spirit. We both hope the agency might have forgotten about me by now. Then we see them and I disappear.
Breakfast: Bagel with Cream Cheese, Orange Juice, Zinc and Vitamin E.
I shave all my facial hair off (except for a slight moustache of course).
Lunch: Toasted Peanut Butter and Strawberry Jelly Sandwich, Baked Lay’s, and Green Tea.
I don’t care about what if. I only care about what is.
I ride my bike in the freezing cold to Kmart to get a head of cabbage. Then I make Cabbage & Potato Skillet with Soy Ghorizo.
I traverse far into Suffolk to sell a chest freezer to someone. He gives me an extra $50 as a delivery fee. He has a dirt road driveway with a few mud traps. As I’m backing out my van gets stuck. One of his friends and his kind mother spend about 15 minutes helping my van get free.
I share the Cabbage & Potato Skillet with Becca at the Waffle House on Indian River Road. I promised the employees I would order something if they let us eat it inside. I order a Mr. Pibb to drink and later a waffle. I vent to Becca about how much people have disappointed me over the years both professionally and in friendships. We discuss how refreshing it is to see and talk to somebody we don’t normally encounter on a daily or even weekly basis. Later on, we head back to her parent’s house and I record a few of her recent dreams. We talk and talk and talk…mostly sharing each other’s dreams…recurring nightmares as a kid…books we’re reading…a friend she’s emotionally involved with…spiritual experiences…understanding the concept of a God (I discuss my theory on how people personify God and sometimes lose the reality of what God truly is, and that is Love, an all encompassing, omnipresent love that we can tap into at any time. I also discuss how this presence could be related scientifically to these particles called neutrinos that are emitted from the sun and move at the speed of light flowing in and out of matter constantly.)
