This is weird.
Just a moment ago I handed off my dispatch sheet to my co-worker (LMAO COW-ORKER!!!!!!!!111) with "The mailboxes, as you Americans say, are empty."
Her typical, dour response is, "Aren't you American?"
"Nope, I'm from Mars."
And in a flash my mind was telling me I was born on Acidalia Planitia in 2309 along with other details I wasn't able to fully apprehend. I'm guessing the 2309 is Earth-reckoning rather than whatever relevant martian reckoning.
Anyway, I had a dream where I was looking at a map with someone. Front and center was Africa and the "camera" zoomed into west Africa to better understand our person of interest. A black man, about 40-60, living in a hut. He had a bag full of items and suddenly I was standing in that hut. The person of interest having flown the coop without his bag. The bag has teeth, pebbles, and a sachet of black sand. It's not really sand as we know it, but tiny black beads about a millimeter in diameter. They weren't beads but spherules of silica which were pleasant to touch. Interspersed were white spherules of natural origin.
Another view of the map, somewhere to the north of Madagascar from the African coast our person-of-interest had high tailed it along the coast, through the Suez Canal then up to Finland. I had a brief glimpse but nothing more.
Yet another abrupt scene shift. I'm standing on the street where I grew up. I'm near the woods around this stretch of the Rahway River. My unseen companion is hiding with me behind a car door. It seems the African was arriving soon to meet a contact just doors from my childhood home. A small car pulls up, the person of interest exits with two golden monkeys where he's joyfully greeted by an older African gent. I sit down in the car and realize I've become invisible because my unseen companion starts panicking at my disappearance. For the rest of the dream I'm doing "Invisible, not-invisible. Invisible, not-invisible" before I wake up with a start around 5 a.m..
Oh yeah, it was raining in New Jersey in my dream. A light, cool rain. Almost a mist, but steady.
