‘Last night I had the strangest dream. I sailed away to to China, in a little row boat to find you and you said you had to get your laundry cleaned. Didn’t want no one to hold you. What did that mean?’
I woke up with those exact lyrics in my head. I didn’t have to look them up to put them here, they just won’t go away. I am singing them to my cat, I think Felix is even flipping his tail to it. (well that and he wants to chase the cursor on the monitor.. ha)
First off, let me say, I want to sail away to china in a little row boat to find someone who didnt ship me a $130 Jersey I ordered from a phoney site they had that looked legit..
But, I really do have this song in my head, and I really did have the strangest damn dream last night. At some point in the dream, I was online looking around like I do all day because well I am on a computer all day and I work online… I came across this person I knew in the past named Gary. He was married and had a kid. His wife looked like his cousin who he went to move with but hey to each their own. The dream didn’t go much elsewhere. I think I woke up with a WTF thought… and then went back to sleep. Maybe a WTF was I thinking then? WTF is my brain doing now? Who knows. LOL. But the fact that he even popped up in it was just weird, It has been at least 8 years since he has even been a thought, that was a bad time in life. His Aunt was on my old Facebook back some 3 years ago or so, but we never spoke. She just sat as a peeper, I think. Maybe subconsciously it was the Pink Floyd song? Crazy how that too can work in weird ways. I would think the song that would do it would be.. well, never mind on that one.. Anyhow, I hope he did find something to put him on the right track in life. He needed something to get him there and I wasn’t going to continue to hang around to ‘fix’ him.
What is great is the fact that I can have these people show up in dreams and it not get to me. I can look back at it as an experience in life even if I remember all details in that time of life, any events that happened at that time that they were in my life, etc. And now.. It really is:
Ain’t nothing gonna break my stride, no body gonna slow me down.. oh no… I’ve got to keep on moving. Aint nothing gonna break my stride. I’m running and I won’t touch ground.
