Slept in this morning and it felt really good to do so. Had a hearty lunch at the BBQ place and my regular latte et al.

Dreamed last night that I was driving a very fancy automobile--I had been loaned its use for the evening. It belonged to someone who was well known--a public figure in the world of entertainment.

I drove it to an area of town where there were a host of fancy cafes and bistros. I couldn't find a parking space that I felt comfortable with--I was concerned that the car would be vandalized if I parked it anyplace that was not very visible. I pulled into a parking lot where I would be charged by the hour. However, when I was in the small area I didn't like the idea of leaving the vehicle with the guys who were running the lot. There was something not right about them and the place. I backed out (after some difficulty) and parked in a brightly lighted spot on one of the main streets. However, my strategy didn't work. When I came out of the bistro, the car had been vandalized. The top (convertible) had been removed along with the leather seats and all of the electronic equipment. I was really upset. I phoned the police and they came by and took a statement--but they offered little hope of recovering any of the stolen parts or identifying anyone who had taken them.

Dance class tomorrow--more advanced class but I think I'm up for it.

Read an article about a woman, 117, who had just died. Also read about a girl, 17, who had just died who had been born with an aging disease--she looked like she was over 100. Odd symmetry in this old world!
