Subject: Bizarre Dream About You
I had a most bizarre dream about you (and me). We were scuba
diving (that's a trick because I've never done it). At some point
we realized there was a "monster" after us. The only way we could
avoid it was to be in absolute darkness. Somehow we got a place
under water where there was virtually no light, except there was one
tiny gleam off some equipment or something. So, you blacked that
out. Apparently we survived, because the next part was we went to
"your house". (I'm certain that came from the story about your
yoga instructor.) It was sort of a cottage, kind of quaint, where
you lived with someone else. Propped up outside the door was a
sign with the numeral "5."
I asked you what that was and you said "it meant Julie (?) couldn't get
window number five shut. When we went inside, the number was also
propped up against the refrig. You went to close the window (?)
but before doing so you put some popcorn on to pop. The only thing
was you put it right on top of the stove in a pan that had no lid.
So when the popcorn popped it popped onto the floor. Also, what
was interesting, was that it was only a handful, not massive amounts.
Some of it went onto the floor, and I picked it up--but for some reason
I did not want you to know I had picked it up from the floor.
Well, what would Freud make of that. Elizabeth
Yeah, I wondered what Freud would say for I sure didn’t know what to make of it. This was not the first time she had dreamed about me. The only dream I could recall having about her was a reoccurring dream of chasing after her VW van down a dirt road on a rainy night, but that really happened one Dark and Stormy Night many years ago. [link 1975 p03] Who was the monster, perhaps Fred from her younger days? Or perhaps it was Julie, coming to take me back from Elizabeth. Dreams can have so many meanings.
