Defenestrate

So the last four times that I went to the beach were sporadic. One time it was at 10 AM, one time at 2 PM, once around 4 PM and once around 5 PM. I pretty much swim in the same spot each time.

The last four times, I have had a Honu breach and look at me. A giant sea turtle.

A local family that I see in the same spot were very excited to see it. They said you see the sea turtles all the time down by the military bases, but they have never seen one on this beach at this location before that day. I mentioned seeing it the last four times I swam in a row. Dave, my housemate, when I mentioned it to him said he has only seen one “Honu” at that beach in the 18 times he has lived in Hawaii.

Look up “meaning of honu” in a search engine.

So, I started watching this series two weeks ago. Sog through the first 2 episodes because all the next ones will make you ache with laughter. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/avenue_5 (The link is there. It is just very light colored.)

My roommate had a procedure today. So, I drove to Honolulu this AM. It was the first time I have really driven any length of time in the last seven years. The highways here are odd. Terrible. No rhyme or reason. And the parking garage for the hospital is build down into a ravine. And no one understands round-a-bouts. Or how to park and drop off a person.

But I drove.

Tonight is women’s small group. My one time a week around females. They talk a ton. There Biblical knowledge seems young? Immature? Developing? A lot of them are college students, so they are still very young.

I am old.

So, I dreamed last night. Been a long, long, long time since I accessed the dream realm and dreamed on a consistent basis.

In my dream, these oddly humanoid shapes (two legs, torso, head thigie) started wandering around the earth. They would attack a human — and kinda absorb part of that human onto them. As the monsters absorbed more and more humans, they became more and more grotesque and deformed. The monsters came after me, so I ran. And in typical INFJ fashion, I didn’t start fighting until the monstrosities attacked someone other than myself.

At that point, I turned and raised a sword I was carrying. (I have no idea why I was carrying a sword.) But a sword literally couldn’t cut them. I watched other people with swords fight them and the “blobs” just absorbed the swords.

Well, I remember looking at my sword in the dream and then looking at the monsters. And then telling my sword to “alight.” And my sword caught on fire — like a spiritual fire. I had no issues killing the monsters at that point.

Second dream. I was in a community. It was odd because everyone seemed to know each other. Well, a good friend of mine — we blackmailed? (someone had something the head honcho wanted and traded that to him) for her to have the best house in the neighborhood. She got this beautiful 3-story house with all the upgrades. I was so happy for her and her family. Plus, it was fully paid off.

So, I am finally catching my first cold in Hawaii. My throat is sore. My ear hurts. I am sneezing non-stop. (No, it is NOT Covid.)

My housemate has a procedure soon (this next week). So, we are playing the “no contact” as I am feeling unwell.
