Morning of April 23, 2017. Sunday.



I am not sure of the location. Even though Zsuzsanna and I seem to be home from shopping at a grocery store, there is also a cashier or unknown female from the store present in the scene.

Apparently, we had bought bowls of food that were already prepared. There are a few different pasta dishes and at least one item in a small cardboard package. Somehow, I cannot eat from one serving as if there is some sort of force field. The female mentions something about the food needing to be decrypted or decoded prior to eating. One has to use a certain herb or spice in a decryption packet to make it possible for the food to be edible. I do not consider how absurd this concept is.

Instead, I am able to get one of the packets and put it over the top of the bowl of inedible pasta. I am then able to eat some of it, because it has now been decrypted (decoded).

Encrypting and decrypting food as one would encrypt and decrypt binary data such as a document is one of the oddest ideas that has occurred in a dream in recent memory. The bilocated essence of being in our house and somehow still being in the grocery store though, is typical of my dreams.

Update on Thursday, 4 May 2017: I had temporarily forgotten about a dream from 1988. In that dream, I had to use the bathroom. On the front of the toilet tank was written “ENTER PROPER ACCESS CODE”. This was so hilarious (as I had been working with computers most of the day) that it woke me up with the urgency to go in reality. (The dream was a “3” on the lucidity scale, but I was not wholly creating it with my conscious mind.)
