6123

Dreamsville last night. Several dream segments and subjects. One involved an old friend, CW. We were working together at a company. We were on the same project and I was starting to lose my grip on things. I was not operating well and was making mistakes. I was dropping the ball in several areas. CW confronted me at one point and asked me what was I doing. He pointed out that I was screwing up in multiple areas and he wanted to know why. I felt badly that I was letting him down, but I was not thinking properly and couldn't easily correct my actions. I tried to explain what was happening, but I couldn't make sense out of things.

In another segment, a group of us were dressed up in firemen's outfits. We were being hired to pretend that we were a group of firemen for a photo shoot. We had to take a metro or subway to the location. So, here we were, decked out in hats, boots, gloves and so on, walking through the turnstiles, boarding a train, and heading off into the bowels of the city. People would look at us, but see the official-looking outfits and go on about their business. In a few cases, we used our fake outfits to get access to areas that regular patrons couldn't reach. We were having a ball in our costumes and gear.

There was a segment that was like a sit-down picnic. It was being coordinated by CM (a person from LeapFrog). There was food, drinks and goodies--a lavish spread. CM was doing the hostess thing, but was also being very friendly and funny. There was one instance where she and I had an exchange--about what I can't recall.

In another part of the festival dream, there was a discussion of how to get to a particular place. As I talked, I could see a scrolling map with highway signs and street names. It was being projected on a wall area. The map reminded me of a section of freeways in and around Memphis. CM was using the map to explain how to get someplace that was here in the Bay Area. This didn't make any sense if the map was of part of Memphis. But the discussion went on and on, until I awoke.

Had a substitute instructor at last night's Qigong session. Was good to get the same data from another person, another perspective. He helped make sense out of what could be confusing material.

Dance class tonight. Will be good to move about some--been sitting a lot so far today, surfing the web. For what? Nothing of importance, or so it seems after two hours have disappeared.

Feeling still. Feeling quiet and peaceful. Have moments of feeling like I need to jump up and go somewhere, but overall feel like just meandering along, ebbing with the tide, flowing with the flow.

Saw Jon's daughter at breakfast this morning. I asked her about Jon and got a summary of his game development status. Discovered a reduced fee arrangement between the rec center and people with low incomes. Could cut back the cost of rec classes by 75%. What a deal!

Spent a bit of time learning how this system can be used to create and edit images. It's not Photoshop, but it might do.

Hope Delta airlines stays intact long enough for me to collect on my FF miles. Sounds like they are on the brink--cashing in FF miles doesn't help their cashflow problems. Life in the jet stream.
