ODe to Joe:

We've had our share of breaks and spills
Of that we can be sure.
From the Penthouse to the Pool
The "doctor" had a cure.

When there was fire or flood or ice, one number for to call
Our 9-1-1 was always heard, and Joe was on the ball.

With age, o'er time, a house doth creak,
Our building heaved a sigh -

To some, this "concrete anti-Christ"
Made noise enough to die.

And o'er the din came threats and sneers,
United naysayers all,

The "Joy Luck Club" brought vaudeville back

While rumors filled the hall!

Of all the milestones, big or small,
We raised our standards high -

Whether Com Ed, or even AT & T
No matter what they bring

Our Camelot was you, dear friend,
And all your schedul-ing.

Our values soared sky high these years
With Lancelot, our King!

Dream - Father's Day - FUll Moon
#1 - I saw Jamie standing by himself and he saw me coming up to him. I stopped. He was limping on his right leg. He appeared to instinctively "know" I came in Love.

- He paused, then reverted to his preconceived notions of hatred and resentment.

- Then he ran over to be with a female, we both knew - maybe Linda Hubbart?

#2 - My brother Tom (in real life) was sitting in the front seat of a car, and I was right behind him, comforting, "loving" him, stroking his hair and hugging him.

- Suddenly, I saw an old friend standing up - out of his wrecked car - from drinking and driving - it was either Erik (Danny's old friend), or perhaps Dave Sobol.

- We passed him by, as we sped along this sort of path in time.

- I was crouched down in the seat, so as to be safe from some evil "presence" - a darkness we were passing through.

- But, I was protected from this evil force, as long as I stayed low. We passed by my old H.S. and also Jeanne and Bob's house. (My H.S. music teachers.)

Dream:
#1 - Had this plan to form an entertainment group of performers, similar to "The Temptations" or "Supremes" (sort of a hot-girl-dominated Four Tops.)

- We were actually going into rehearsal. I walked up the aisles from the back of the outdoor theatre, up to the front of the stage, during sound check, and I just "had" or "commanded" the attention of everyone as being the head of the studio, or the producer, or even the director - It was as if I were "born" to be there!

#2 - I confronted Joe (Prop.Superv) about something I thought he said about me - "Those fucking shades" - and he admitted saying something similar "Those fucking screens."

- But that was because they were up all over the place, and he thought it was or could be "perceived" as a nuisance.

- I remember, in real life, while I was on a phone call in my apt. - a voice bled in that sounded just like Joe, and I heard him say something like "That fucking Steel [my nickname].

Dream: "Mrs. Leigh - she (you) was the town physician's wife. You're not to tell anybody for reasons you well know.

5/14/00 - Dreams
#1 - A Maharishi or Monk opened a door and just stood there!!! (see illustration)

#2 - A wise man was standing , dressed in a cheetah headband, which was long, and hung down in front, making a scarf! (see illustration)

Dream:
- I was 5 hours late for my new shift, due to car trouble, sickness.

- There were kids packing, moving the contents to a new vehicle.

- I had been sick and there was a father figure there that was of no help - my family unit.

- The new vehicle (moving truck) that I was to use to get to work - was left in gear, somehow, and backed itself into a corner, and couldn't be budged.

- A divine intervention came and it got it out of the predicament.

- Next, someone came to me and told me "You will be entering a totally new level, once you get back from your trip to Washington D.C."

- This new level is one of extreme peace and satisfaction. (It turned out to be prophetic, in real life!)

2/1/00 - Earthquake Dream:

- We were on the edge of a beach when an earthquake hit.

- I looked up and was standing under some columns, so I ran out onto the water (which was green marble and curved like the earth).

- There were earthquakes there all the time - not to worry.

- I had to go back to my part-time job [back with Veronica at United Stationers], but would meet the rest of my party there, tomorrow.

- There was a man standing there, sort of behind a ticket counter. He said I could have a job anywhere with his outfit, and offered me his card.

- The next day, we went to the beach (sunny day). We had fun.

- As we were ready to leave, one lady said: "Let's stay till tomorrow."

- We told her it was too cold. But, we'd like to come back tomorrow, when the sun was warm.

- She agreed. So we did. Then I woke up.
