Old/new dream last night. The dream was old in that it involved being in a plane that was taxiing and taking off from a crowded airport. I was in the plane's cabin as the navigator. There were two other people in the cabin--the pilot, an old childhood friend of mine (BB) and a current friend (RR) who was co-pilot. We were cleared for takeoff, but the approach corridor was one where you had to navigate the plane through city traffic in order to takeoff. BB was inching the plane through traffic and pedestrians when he missed a turn and started up a wrong street.

I told him that he was on the wrong street, but he had been drinking (as had RR) and he continued up the street. It was really dicey using that street for takeoff because of the traffic, people and low-hanging utility wires. BB ignored all of these problems, gunned the engines, sailed off down the street and miraculously cleared the wires and got into the air.

As we were reaching altitude, we noticed that somehow we'd taken off without checking the fuel levels. We were nearly out of fuel and had to turn back and land before we crashed. This incident was going to put a mark against all of us, as crew, and we'd probably be grounded and fined.

Sure enough, when we landed the coordinator came into the cabin and told us we were on administrative leave and could expect not to be flying anytime soon. We deplaned and got into a large 4x4 truck. BB was driving, of course. He was still drunk and acting crazy. We nearly hit some other cars and ended up spinning out and landing in a ditch. When we got out, BB went nuts and started smashing the truck, hitting it and kicking it, and generally throwing a fit.

I was standing back watching him do his thing. At one point, I actually was impressed by the amount of energy he expended and how much damage he was able to inflict. About then, I awoke and replayed the dream so I could write it down later.

Had a dental hygiene this morning. Pretty good results since last cleaning. My biochemistry has changed somewhat so I'm not building up as much as I used to accumulate. Hygienist had taken some CW dance lessons in the South Bay, but couldn't recall the teachers' names.

I was hungry since I'd skipped breakfast. Grabbed a middle eastern salmon plate (do they have salmon in the middle east?). Later had a frittata before going to Qigong class. Good class despite how tired I felt when I left to go there. Came away from the class energized. Experienced very deep breathwork at the chiropractor.

Nearly full moon tonight. Energy levels feel like it's full and overflowing. Not much done today except reading in the Means' book of stories. Tomorrow and tomorrow, etc. Have the day free tomorrow--except for dance class tomorrow evening. Time to get some things done...and pick up my MegaMillion lottery check--Oh, yeah!
