A much anticipated United Airlines Flight # 279 from Orlando to LAX,
arriving 2:57 pm today. This will fit in later. I had a very strange
dream last night. I was pal-ing around with a male buddy of mine. I do
not remember the whole dream, but a few things are very vivid in my
mind. On day I was over at his place(apparently). I was sitting around
in my pajamas reading a paper, while he was in the shower getting ready
for something. His girlfriend pops over. She was an elegant 'Beverly
Hills Chick', dressed very nicely. She greeted me courteously and wanted
to know who I was. I must have told her that we were just friends, and
started immediately chatting about all the beautiful dresses they were
showing in ads in the paper and complaining that I couldn't afford
them.(Now don't jump too any conclusions yet. I hang out sometimes in my
P.J.'s all day at my desk at home when I don't have an appointment). Now
that is not the end of the dream. When I woke up this morning the first
thing that entered my mind was that this guy was a fellow Blogger! And
then I pondered on the dream a little longer and realized the woman was
also a Blogger. Then I remembered the rest of the dream. I was somewhere
in a store, looking to buy a Wedding vase. The Woman next to me(who I
believed at first to be someone's mother) told me that I could have
gotten the over $100 price tag vase in Palm Springs for $39.95. I said
to her isn't that always the case, being able to get it somewhere else
cheaper. A man was also standing there. (apparently her son). He was
someone I knew.(Not the first man described above), He was relatively
short, about my height(5' 71/2"), Jewish, and wearing a sport jacket. He
put out his hand and offered me a crumpled up $100 bill and some other
$5 and $10 dollar bills as well. At first I refused . /Oh no. You must
take this money./ he said, putting the bills in my hand. I finally
accepted the money to pay for the vase. I hugged him feeling warm and
very attached to him. The only other thing I remember is the woman(His
Mom I thought) giving me a ride somewhere. This is also a visual I can
remember well. We were driving up to this corner , being surrounded by
empty fields. It reminded me of the place the bus dropped Cary Grant off
in the movie "North by Northwest"( the scene with the crop duster plane
chasing him). This is where it gets interesting. I realized all of these
people are Bloggers I have been visiting on a very regular basis lately.
The first guy and the woman I figured out first. The first Man is from
the South, very sweet and dear, down to earth, writes essays,rides his
bike,travels and wants to find a woman to love and have kids. The
Beverly Hills woman is also easy to figure out. At first I thought my
dream was about setting up these two people, wanting to be a matchmaker
.........but they are so totally at opposing ends of the personality
spectrum,and from very different lifestyles that I doubt they would hit
it off. (She wants a Jewish guy with means.) The Jewish man in the dream
at first I could not figure out. But due to the action in the dream, I
remembered. I won a contest on someone's Blog and he sent me $50 to my
paypal account as my prize. I was just trying to be a little outrageous
on his Blog. (once in a while to get away from my goodie2-shoes self
image). The descriptions don't always fit in dreams. The blogger who
gave me the money ,I think, is neither short nor Jewish. And then the
last solving of the puzzle came together. The 'mother' in the dream
really is a mother but too young to have a son that old. But she is a
very sweet person who helps people, and came to my aid yesterday in
answer to a desperate e-mail. What is a little puzzling is that 2 men
are missing in this dream(unless I forgot part of it). The first man I
can understand because I have just very recently started up again to
visit his Blog as he was on hiatus for three months. The other man I
have been visiting (his Blog) on a daily basis . It is very possible, as
in all dreams, that characters in the dream may represent more than one
person. The times I was pal-ing around with this character at different
turns could have been one or the other. (Who was the one in the shower?)
