Girlfriends and Space Travel

  • I'm with some friends and my girlfriend and we are invited to a party. We arrive at the house and I notice the architecture is more like a library than a home. The building is square, with a square ground floor and a mezzanine which overlooks the first floor on all sides. There are picture windows all the way around and the public spaces (foyer, living room, kitchen, dining room, bathroom) are on the ground floor with bedrooms and lounges upstairs. When we arrive, a band is setting up in the living room in one corner of the house and I notice that one of the members is the good friend of my ex-girlfriend, Radha. After awhile I notice Radha herself sitting nearby. By now I'm upstairs in a little lounge, overlooking the band who has begun to perform. My girlfriend, Genery, is with me and I tell her that I'm going to talk to Radha because I need to try to clear up some old tension. Ever since we broke up three years ago I've felt a lingering karmic debt, despite the fact that we haven't spoken more than a few words in two years. I meet up with her in the kitchen and she is obviously distressed by my presence with Genery. She seems only half-willing as I try to address the issue directly. Genery passes through the kitchen and says hello to Radha. Some progress seems to be made by the time we leave the party. I've had a few other dreams similar to this where I attempt to resolve the karma by confronting Radha.

  • I wake up inside a sleeping bag after many months of suspended animation. I'm onboard a star ship headed for some interstellar destination. My two companions are waking up on either side of me and the robot pilot stands over us, handing us nutrition bars to awaken our metabolisms. The robot looks just like my mother and in my groggy state I really think it's her.
