I had a very detailed set of dream episodes last night. In one part of the dreaming, I was talking with JON. He was planning to move to the Bay Area. He asked my opinion and I gave it--I told him it would be a mistake to move there now. The place was too crowded, noisy, dirty, crime-riddled, poor working conditions, and more. He didn't want to hear what I was saying. He kept trying to bring up positive reasons, but I was being adamant--I didn't think it made sense to go there anymore. I felt somewhat guilty saying those opinions, but I felt it was true and that he needed to know it.

In a second part of the dream, we were in a storage facility. It was a large open warehousing floor that was filled with defunct and discarded technologies. We were there trying to locate a couple of old pieces of equipment that we needed for a current project. I felt overwhelmed by the huge amount of stuff that was stored there, and was wondering why we still had so many obsolete items. I couldn't help but start thinking about getting rid of all that junk, emptying the facility, and letting go of the space we were leasing.

In a third part of the dreaming, I was talking with someone (LL?) about moving to Hawaii. I was explaining why I thought I should move there--it all had to do with my PD diagnosis and my recent wellness check. I was telling her that if my test results indicated anything radical that I would prefer to skip all of the drama and just go there, relax, and let nature work its magic. All of the dreaming sequences were highly verbal with me and another person staying in dialog for long periods of time.

I walked my extended loop again today. I like the steeper parts that I've added--I can feel them working on me as I move down and back up the inclines.

I had lunch at Panera's today--Cobb salad with chicken, avocado, bits of bacon, a little cheese, and greens. I ordered a half salad but the clerk rang me up for a full serving. When I pointed this out, she tried to reverse the item and change it to a half order. For some reason, the system gave me two orders (a full salad and a half salad) for just the price of a half salad. I enjoyed the full salad and took the half salad home for dinner! Can't beat that!
