This is the second dream I had after the death of my cat, Pepper, on October 26th. (She was put to sleep after suffering an age-related illness. She was about 20 years old.)
I dozed off on the couch for an hour or so and I dreamed...that Pepper's ghost came to me.
I swear to God, I'm not making any of this up. It could just be me obsessing. But why is it all so weird!
In the dream it was nighttime and I was sitting on the couch and she just came walking into the room, as normal as ever. But I KNEW it was her ghost. I was so happy to see her anyway, and got up to go pet her. She sat down and purred and rubbed her head on me and lay down on the floor and everything, just like she was saying hi. I told her I was glad to see her again, and I even picked her up and hugged her. It was so great! Her purr is one of the things I miss the most--it was such a loud purr--and I was so glad to hear it again.
Two other animals then wandered into view. They didn't look normal. They looked like cloisonné animals and were maybe a foot or so tall. (Pepper herself may have been wearing a cloisonné collar or something.) One was an Egyptian falcon. I can't remember what the other one was, but it may have been a small dog. They were both about her size, and all in bright bold colors like red and blue, with gold metal around the enamel. Pepper had been sitting in front of the dining room, and they came and stood near the doorway. She seemed to be uncomfortable that I was holding her now, and I knew I had to let her go. I was anxious at first that she may be in pain again, but I think--I HOPE--she just wanted down. So I put her down on the floor.
She went over to the other animals and I knew it was time for her to leave me. I was sad to see her go, and the other animals as well, as I knew they had been pets of mine too. These were their ghosts. Pepper sat down by them and I petted each and instructed them on how to behave. "Now Pepper," I said, "you keep an eye on him"--I pointed at the hawk--"and him"--I pointed at the other animal. "And you"--I petted the hawk--"keep an eye on Pepper, and on him"--to the other animal. I believe I gave the third animal similar instructions, in short, telling them all to keep an eye on each other. I wanted them all to be safe. They stood up and turned around and walked away, and I don't know where they went, but I was both happy to have seen them again and yet sad to see them go so soon.
It was a wonderful dream but once again I'm left saddened and wondering if it even meant anything. Do I just search for meaning in wishful thinking?

Yesterday my dream had to do with me missing recording Dragon Ball Z repeatedly. Wasn't very pleasant.
Today's I can't remember very well, but it's all I recall and was a bit odd.
I think I had been watching the news, local news, and they were talking about an anthrax-like thing that was spreading around, only I think this WAS infectious. I do know that cough was a symptom. They mentioned someone had died and I was thinking, "Another one?" I think there had been only a few deaths so far, but of course people were freaked out.
The person on TV--I think it was 7&4 News--mentioned that the latest death was from Cheboygan--MY hometown. I wasn't really frightened by this--in fact, I thought it was kind of cool, and was wondering who would freak out over it. I think Ma was wandering around in another room and she heard them mention a death and said, "Where was it this time?"
"Cheboygan," I said, hoping to get a shock out of her. I'm not sure if I did, as the scene changed.
Now I was downtown, with a class of mine; I think the teacher was Ms. K., who was my art teacher in high school. It was cool, dry, and sunny, like autumn; we wore jackets and walked along the street or sidewalk. There was VERY little traffic because of the "outbreak" (the death). So I remember leaving the right-hand sidewalk (I was near the paper mill, at least, near where it is in real life; perhaps I was a bit before that) and wandering around into the road itself. The other students were walking along behind me. I can't recall all that happened, but we did a lot of walking and encountered a few city people. I remember coming to a street corner on the left side and stopping and coughing into my hand, hoping to scare a few people. :) I don't know why I was being so antisocial. I think one or two glanced at me but that was about it.
I seem to think there was a bit more to this, at least a bit more detail, involving why we were walking around (it had something to do with our class as the teacher showed up and we all grouped together again to leave)...and I seem to remember time, or a clock (perhaps up on a building?), having something to do with it...but I don't know what it was...

This is the first dream I had after the death of my cat, Pepper, on October 26th. (She was put to sleep after suffering an age-related illness. She was about 20 years old.)
While napping on the couch, I dreamed that I had a tiny black kitten. (Pepper, as you may have guessed from her name, was black.) I sat on the couch exactly as I did in real life and let it crawl around on me. For a moment it rested against my arm and I cradled it. Then it squirmed and crawled around some more and I laughed and exclaimed to Dad, who was nearby, how cute it was. The thing was, I wasn't certain if it was male or female, thus I wasn't certain what I should name it.
I picked it up to look at its underside. I thought that if it were a boy, "Lucifer" would be a cool name. I had no idea for a female name. It's as if its genital region (only it was on the underside) was hairless, as if shaven, and there was a bit of blood here. I was a mite bit concerned but not worried; for some reason this was to be expected. But I couldn't tell what sex it was, so I didn't know what to name it.
