Random Dreaming

I had just parked my car on the street, and I was walking away when I heard a loud cracking sound. I turned around to check, and someone had thrown a brick or some heavy object at the windshield, leaving a hole in the glass with broken shards radiating out from it. I saw a young man running away, so I ran across the street after him. He looked back and sped up, zig-zagging through a crowd of people. I managed to keep him in sight, and people in the crowded street saw that he was fleeing and I was chasing him. People in the busy street were slowing him down but also getting in my way, but I was confident I could catch him. Finally I saw an opening and tackled the guy, but the man I tackled had sudden grown old and shriveled.

I dreamed that the sheets and blankets on the bed were made of digital documents like a quilt made from stitched-together paper and disks and electronic files .

So I'm coming in the back door to a porch of some house I don't recognize, and a young woman I do recognize is coming out the door to the porch holding her knee in pain; she explains how she was knocked down and banged up her leg, which I put my hand on with healing qi.

I dreamed there was a large, winged insect hovering around my chest and neck with its long tendril-like tail hanging down like the tail of a kite. It seemed harmless, benign, almost friendly. It landed in front of me and crawled out of its skin, leaving behind an exoskeleton that looked like a crab's shell. Having shed its skin the red, soft-bodied creature slithered off like a slow-moving lizard.
