earlier:
+ (f) on a race-track? Zipping around, there are large distances involved, I see a giant horse-head (like a chess knight)?
later:
+ walking on roads/paths, I see a sign on a downhill path labelled "for sh ->" (programming shell), enter home, I'm leaving through back stairs leading back up to road, woman of the house speaks to me and we realize that she knows my son S2.
+ enter a house, (DO?) a guy goes into the kitchen and uses a strange tool to quickly pick/get the template of the lock on the kitchen door, and runs outside, before the woman in the kitchen sees him
+(f) some old Chinese guy in a canoe?
+ in a house/room talking with people/friends. A woman is pregnant. I'm stepping on the floor and notice a loose tile. I bend down to look and it's a large cube-shaped brick that's loose in the floor because it's sitting on top of crumpled up newspaper underneath. I'm saying "but are there any restrictions/problems with being close to the wi-fi radiation (for the pregnant woman)?"
+ in an office/cube setting, I'm talking to a guy there and say "wouldn't it be great if there was an entire wi-fi free area, so that we wouldn't be subject to the radiation?" They're planning some conference and marketing girls are walking around with big handfuls of ribbons. I ignore this and turn to my terminal/screen, start to log in, and think about playing some game.
+ [vivid, present] outdoors/daylight, walking up an uphill curving path with two other guys, one is a CEO (of company N?) and another guy is an older visitor. The older visitor starts breathing very very heavily, wheezing almost, like this is an extreme exertion for him. It's quite loud and distracting and I think that guy is in terrible shape, all my attention is on the horrible sound of this guy's labored breathing. We reach a sharp switchback on the trail and I look down and see that part of the path is made out of a 4-5" diameter PVC pipe embedded in the ground, the peak of the pipe sticks up and makes a slipper foothold if you walk just on this part, and I say so. The CEO guy says his legs got really tired by squatting for a long time by the side of the path.
+ [vivid, present] some sort of old-west "steampunk" environment, indoors, half-lit, there's a woman on a podium dressed up thematically and dramatically, some narration about her. Then a snake-oil salesman type sitting on a buggy starts his pitch. He talks a lot, a constant stream of chatter. He's talking about the benefits of marijuana. He reaches down into a pouch low on the coach below his feet and takes out a handful of the "weed." It actually looks like a handful of small pine branches. He says something about "fathers and daughters and uncles and nieces." He then bends the handful of branches in half and holds them tightly, and lights one end (the end which is mostly sticks) and offers it as a free demo. He says the cost of this would be $500. My (wife?) is near me and I know she would disapprove, but I take a toke anyway. I blow on the end to get the fire a bit higher, smoke is starting to emerge from the front of the pile of (pine-weed). I take one deep breath in (get a bit of smoke), exhale, then put my mouth on the front of the pine-weed and take a deep inhale of the smoke. I hold my breath for about 10 seconds and then exhale strongly.
