Another Odd Dream

Yesterday morning, I awoke with an odd image of my mind - the lower half of a woman's face, with a door key sticking out her mouth like a cigarette.

That's a difficult image to understand. I think it has to do with my mother's ownership of the condominium in which my wife and I live.

It's amazing what the mind can dream up!

Q: Why Do I keep Hearing This Phrase?

I keep hearing this phrase - "26 Natalie's Blue Joes" in my dreams.

I searched Google and could fin no reference to it. I only knew one Natalie in my life, my sweet and beautiful neighbor, Natalie Kille.

I don't know what a Blue Joe is, although sometimes I like to dress in blue jeans and a blue polo shirt.

I think it may be how many times I got aroused thinking of Natalie. But I can't imagine who was keeping track, unless it was my consicience.

Is my unconscious trying to steer me towards something I missed? It is very helpful that way.

There is a technique developed by Dr. Eugene Gendlin at the University of Chicago in the Sixties called "Focusing," and it is designed to take a word or phrase from your center of feeling and allow you to trace it through your "center of feeling" to obtain a "felt shift," a release of tension and change of mood.
Interestingly, when I tried to get the domain name "26Natalaies" and "nataliesbluejoes" they were not available.

I wonder who got there before me? 26 different Natalies? :)
