Dreams: cycling boot camp? What?
Dec0
Tuesday Dec 8th, 2009: I woke up thinking “what was that about?” Apparently I was in some kind of cycling/car driving/ditch crawling boot camp dream? Bah.
It started out with me riding my road bike on a narrow gravel road. Yeah, that makes sense. I think it was sunny outside. Not cold out at all (unlike the last few days in reality) and the grass was green. No pollen allergies exists in dreams either – so that is a major plus. I continued cycling down the road. Next thing I knew, I was in a car for a race. How that transition happened, I don’t know. I’m fairly certain I was the only car out there… so I guess I won? Against myself? This is probably a reflection of my self competitive nature, but me racing a car? I can’t see that happening… now, racing a bicycle, I can see THAT happening! Oh, my bike, how I miss riding thee.
In any case, I get out of the car. I’m at the top of a hill and I’m overlooking grassland. To the left there is a old wooden shed. It’s siding was weathered by the years of exposure to the sun, rain and the elements. I look to the right and it was a pretty good set of slow rolling hills for as far as the eye can see until everything vanishes into the horizon. I decide to crawl through the grass, then it became a ditch… a muddy one. Am I at boot camp? End of dream?
I really should have written this down while it was fresh in my mind. Many details escape me now. I guess we’ll see what fun filled stories I can come up with… in my head… tonight Trying to be funny. Re-read that last sentence. Not funny. Really time for sleep.
