Dad, the Fuzzy Animal, S.W.A.T.Friday, January 16th, 2015


There was this little fuzzy animal, kind of a cross between a cat and a ferret at my dad’s house out in the country. It was grey and black, and apparently meant a lot to me. Someone was going to take it away and I was very sad about this so I was trying to spend time with it. The number 3 seems distinctive for some reason. Then I recall walking over to a sink to clean something up and the sink was huge so that I couldn’t reach the faucet. There was something of my dad’s in there and I had spilled something on it as well.

Next dream was about a S.W.A.T. team that was coming into my house. I was thinking that someone had complained about something or was trying to frame me. They came and left and it wasn’t a huge deal, except that they came back a second time and hadn’t come over yet but were across the street doing exercises in the driveway of the condo complex. I recall thinking to myself that I didn’t have time to hang around so I left. I tried to call Dean to see if he could take care of it but he didn’t answer the phone. I tried to call Natalie and neither did she, but I recall thinking that they wouldn’t listen to her anyhow.

Players: Dad, Dean, Natalie, S.W.A.T.
Thoughts: The first dream is very much about Wrigley and Kirby.

Mickey Mouse Man, Cafe, Road Ice SkatingThursday, January 15th, 2015


All I recall is Mickey Mouse with an average man’s sized body in the form of a doll. Unfortunately, I didn’t stay awake long enough to recall the rest.

There was a cafe and I had come back from a vacation. We were there with another couple, and I recall setting a USB cable down on a table. We visited for a while and when it came time to go, I already had the USB cable with me but I used retrieving it as an excuse for going back into the cafe to see something tho I don’t remember what.

I was standing near a road that had obsidian or anthracite rocks covering the side. I was wearing ice skates and I needed to get up to the road to skate. I was climbing the rocks in the skates which was challenging. When I reached the top, I wanted to impress someone that I could actually skate well. I’m not even sure if there was ice on the road but I found it easy to skate uphill and worried a little what it would be like skating downhill. I found that I took to it easily, slaloming in the same way you would on skis. It was quite fun.

Players: Me, Mickey Mouse
Thoughts: It was interesting that I would be devious to have to return into the cafe to see something. And that I would feel that I needed to impress someone.

Yahoo! & the SellTuesday, January 13th, 2015


I was hired back at Yahoo! to fill some role but when I got there, the whole floor where I was going to work was empty of furniture. There were a number of employees there with nothing to do except stand around and talk about how they were going to have a bbq. I suggested that we take the space and it for meat drying racks which drew a little chuckle. It seemed that people were waiting for some sort of imminent shutdown of the facility or something. It made me wonder why they were hiring me. A girl was needing to go downstairs to retrieve something for the bbq and she needed help so I followed her downstairs to the first floor kitchen

I was then sitting on the floor of some sort of temple. I was wearing a hoody and the hood was up. Around me, this guy who had obviously been a part of whatever faith this was, was doing a hard sell of products that were developed by the temple. CDs, incense, books, that sort of thing. He was even trying to get one of the older members to vouch for the quality and superiority of the products but the member didn’t seem to have much familiarity with the products so wasn’t really cooperating in supporting this salesman. It all felt very Hari Krishnaesque.

Players: Me, temple salesman, Yahoos
Events: Planning for bbq, sitting in temple
Symbols: Yahoo! eating it, trying to sell spiritual things to survive
Thoughts: The feeling of a sinking ship, yet planning a bbq to celebrate something is incongruous. Maybe it’s indulgence. Somebody trying to sell me something I don’t really need is something I don’t want to do to someone else. I found it filthy event tho the things were nice. It all has a bit to do with materialism. Makes me wonder how you can do all these things honourably.

Spinous Processes & CatMonday, January 12th, 2015


I was the passenger in a car and was driving along with two women and Mel. I was talking about my business and how I was finding it difficult to make enough money to continue. We parked the car at the end of a street and got out and one of the women started running her fingers along my spine. She said to Mel, “Look how these spinous processes stick out here. If they get any larger, he’s going to become a chronic liar.” Then she did something to my spine and said, “Look at it now, it’s completely different.”

I was sitting at a large banquet table and a woman was talking to me about a little girl with a bump on her head and cat. She said that the girl didn’t trust people. I looked to my right where there was a wall with ivy growing on it and a cat came climbing over the wall, head first. It was a small orange cat. When it reached the floor, it came over to me and jumped onto my lap. Then, a little girl, probably about 6 of 7 years old with wispy blonde hair and large bump on her forehead came crawling down the wall like the cat. She came over and stood next to me, observing the cat as if she would react in the same way the cat did, which in this case, was favourable. Then the cat jumped off my lap and started eating out of one of the bowls of food on the table that was closer to the floor, on a small end table. There was a group of people that suddenly stood and started to enter the auditorium. I asked where they were going and someone told me that Kyle was doing a cortices presentation. I was like, “Kyle, wait a minute… do they know that I’m a BodyTalk practitioner?” I walked to the other side of the small auditorium on the outside and started talking with a woman there about my rates. She asked if I charged $9 and hour? I don’t know where she got that figure from and I said no, “I charge $100 a session.” She looked at me like there was no difference between the two and indicated that it was a good deal.

Players: Me, girl, cat, woman, Mel
Event Sequence: Driving, woman touching my spine, woman talking, cat and little girl, discussing BodyTalk
Symbols: cat (which is elusive), spinous processes, lying (untruth about self)

The Aqua NetSaturday, January 10th, 2015


Funny that I didn’t make the connection to hairspray until I wrote the title of this. There was a young man who turned into a large hairy beast. He lived in a town and there were three boys whom were much younger that I was trying to avoid. He didn’t want them to know that he turned into this beast. He had somehow gotten ahold of a fishing net that was aqua/turquoise coloured. The boys wanted it and were chasing him thru the town. He went to his parent shop and transformed before the boys got there and he played it off that he wasn’t the beast, but one of the boys discovered the net and took it.

Next, I was sitting next a young man (maybe the same) who was going on a long sailing journey, far out into the sea, to see a witch, or merwoman or something. I was teasing him that he would be going to where there was no time, and who knows what would happen to him without time. He took off and hitched a ride with some sort of water craft to bring back this kind of skim board. He launched off of the water craft as he came to a stop at the shore of the small island I was sitting on. I became aware that I was possibly blue, and wasn’t human, and maybe even had magical powers.

Players: 3 boys, 1 young man, myself
Event Sequence: boys chasing young man, conversation with young man
Symbols: aqua net, travel by sea, beast, skim board
Thoughts: I’m still unsure who I was. The image of a blue octopus comes to mind.
