no cell-phone, dream by mikele -- June 6, 2012
SC, C and I have a critical meeting at the en of the day. It is a bit stressful: my phone doesn't work. We have to meet at SC's place by 5:30pm.
I am wandering in a school that is not mine, it seems like an architecture school. I stumble on someone's backpack, and this seems to turn on some large flash light attached to the poster tube. I try to turn it off, there are a number of buttons, but I am having trouble finding the right one, and turn on another lamp on the other side of the tube. Eventually I manage to turn it off.
It feels there still is some time before the meeting, so I go walking in some foresty park nearby on the hill. Then I realize it is already 5:30 passed, and cannot warn them that I a will be late, since the phone doesn't work. I am a little panicked, starting going to SC's place, and meet SC and C somewhere on the way. SC has to take a plane to NY, she's a lawyer there. She reminds me and then I remember she passed the bar of NY. She has to deal with some horse race case.

Context: I got up early in the morning to finish some work, then went back for a nap briefly, a bit anxious about some meeting later in the after-noon. I had this dream during the nap.
There is an important meeting in the after-noon, SC does horseback-riding, I had trouble fiddling with the automatic cat feeder, similarly to the trouble I had turning off the light from the poster tube.
On the previous day, I spent some time playing with the pin-hole camera I had made to see the transit of Venus in front of the Sun. It was made out of a long cardboard box that contained a microphone stand. Similar size to the tube with the light in the dream. At first I was using paper on one side where the image of the sun would project. But this didn't work since the paper was granular and had a lot of darker reagions, hiding the small dot projected by Venus. Eventually I took of the paper and projected it onto a business card.
My phone stopped working yesterday as well.
There were a number of other parts to the dream that I cannot remember.
Daily skype call pulled me out of bed.
