L0 but almost dream sign in a few places

R2 telletubbies don't usually inhabit Chicago
An interesting night's dreaming. Some of the wierdness no doubt due to the low ball of white tequila on the rocks I had before bed.
I was in the navy and stationed in a very large city. We were living in boarding houses though not military dorms, nice old homes. There was an issue in which many of us knew how to fly and the overall feel of the dream was that at the beginning we were like a high school class. I remember asking about certain girls I saw and there was that whole, who likes who and who wants to marry who thing. By the end it was just a couple people living in the boarding house. The other men who lived in the boarding house were ex mafioso, interesting fellows. Many of the scenes were shallow paste overs of ideas and experiences that have shaped my life. In one little incident I was talking to someone about flying and then when I demonstrated how to fly I became a super ball and bounced very high into the sky. When I came down it was in a teletubbies version of Chicago and they were looking into me and seeing kaliedascope colors. The dream ended with me sitting on a bed naked with a girl from school that has always had a problem with me and gossips about me constantly. It seemed somehow that we understood each other now. It then occured to me that even though I was in the navy I had no uniforms in my closet and this made me anxious, you are supposed to show up for duty in your whites or khakis or blues. Suddenly a package came from my parents that contained a bunch of my clothes and all of my uniforms. I looked at the postage and it had cost them over $80 to send it, this would be considered a lot of money just to send a package.
Interpretation- Well I am hoping to go to the Univ. of Chicago to work on my Phd in applied Statistics and Math Modeling. The box from my family I hope is prophetic but probably represents my belief that my mother will not let me down on a financial matter that we are currently dealing with and that they care about the success of my career. The girl on the bed from school is very complicated and the scene has shadows of my early childhood, my marriage and what I think about the girl in question and what I think she thinks of me, its a multilayered symbol, glass onion for sure. The postage part actually invoked alot of different feelings about the fact that we grew up poor, feeling sorry somehow that $80 would seem like alot of money, feeling bad that my irresponsibility meant I could not reimburse them for the amount (This one I am sure will come up again it is the first time I have really acknowledged that feeling in a long time). The flying part, I almost wish I had noticed how odd that was. That should have been a dream sign. But I am starting to wonder if the vividness of the dream is correlated to lucidity. I may try to do a survey here on some of those parameters just to see if it appears that lucid dreams are generally more vivid than others.
