A Hayu's Dream
Page 21
I checked the counter. It looked like about a hundred people visited the web site. I added a guest book. I hope I’ll get more people to leave messages. The cats are fooling with a string. I think they want me to play with them. I’m a little tired. But not too tired to play string with the cats. I played string for thirty minutes. Then the cats lost interest. I went and took my shower. It was great to shower. I felt nice hot water on me. I could have sworn I was taking a bath and someone was washing me like I was an invalid. Very weird but both cats are on my bed snoozing. I like having them on my bed. It is nice.

Dear Anne,
I didn’t sleep very well. I kept waking up due to some needle pinching feeling. I had that dream again. I dreamed I was in the tented hospital where I was when I first caught the virus. They were poking me with needles. It's like they were trying to wake me up then I blacked out. The cats are in my room exploring. I have been meaning to clean my room. I hope I’m not coming down with insomnia. I hope not. I woke up to feed the cats. I went back to bed and woke up. I ate some breakfast. I ate a something like a granola bar. It’s a cereal bar with milk in it. At least I won’t have to do the dishes. I drank some milk. I’m glad I’m not allergic to milk. I was going back to bed when the phone rang. It was Sean on the phone. I told him about waking up and not sleeping properly I also mentioned that I had strange dreams. He suggested I come over for tests. I went to get dressed. I also tried to leave my hair down but the ghost insisted that I put it up. I felt like the ghost grabbed my hair and put in a braid and did the tying.
I walked in the snow to the Medical Bay. Good thing I wore my boots. It was snowing a bit. At the door I was told by Serena to wait for the doctor to attend to me. Inside Sean did a lot of tests on me. He had me go on a treadmill while breathing through a mask. I wore arm straps. I did a serious of exercises from walking to jogging. Then he examined my eyes and checked my ears and mouth. Then he took samples from my hair, blood and skin. He wanted to make sure I was perfectly fine. He gave me a pill bottle of sleeping pills to take. The directions say to take one pill a day. I paid the bill, which was ten dollars by credit card. Then I walked to the store through the fog again. I tried to look up but some knight that was following me wouldn’t let me look up.
While at the store I saw Sue and it was great to see to her. She looks fine but seemly nauseous. I did some shopping. I found a machine that automatically feeds a cat at a certain time. It’s like a computer box. Which it opens the can and puts the right amount of food in the bowl. It’ll be great for feeding my cats real early in the morning. I brought it. Then I took a cab home.
At home I programmed it to go off early in the morning and when I’m at work. At least I won’t have to leave work to feed the cats. I read the directions and put the cans in the machine.
I walked to the arch and there was a horse there which I nuzzled. I saw a figure in black standing there watching me but the features were not clear. I told the figure I would like to go to the library. Then the ghost helped me onto the horse and the horse was led to the library door. I got off the horse by myself and then entered the library. This time instead of an old moldy library I saw several rows of shelves with books on both sides and a staircase leading to upstairs.
I tried to go up but some rope appeared on the staircase and it said “Do not enter. Under construction”.
I wanted to look up some books.
I found the science fiction section marked by the words “Science Fiction”. I also found a computer that was like a library computer. I looked up books on a rock group. They didn’t have books on music just how to do an instrument books after that I walked home by horse. I fed the cats. I ate some dinner and watched TV. I have to get up early tomorrow. I took the pills for diabetes and for sleeping. I’m feeling a little tired. I hope I won’t over sleep. The cats are on my bed snoozing. They look cute sleeping curled up together. I hate having to move them. I don’t have a choice. Then for some reason I felt running in the forest behind the house. I went down the basement to the sun room where the back door was and then ran outside. My hands became paws as my form became shorter and shorter then my face got narrower and I ran in the forest in a wolf form. I frolicked in the snow playing with myself. I turned and saw a white wolf who snapped at me. The white wolf proceeded to charge at me. I was annoyed but the white wolf escorted me to the sun room and when I was inside the white wolf ran away as the snow fell. I discovered that there was a snowstorm that night on TV. I think I understand the wolf changes. I must be a skin walker which is a person who can change her form to any animal mostly a wolf. It explains why my parents have been pushing me to like wolves when I was growing up.

Dear Anne,
I checked the cat machine. It fed the cats. I set it to go off so I don’t have to walk home to feed them. I managed to get to work before the appointed time. Work was fine. The customers were nice to me. I saw Sue. She complained about the nausea and the morning sickness that must be related to pregnancy. It’s a good thing I brought some food. The food in the machine isn’t good for me. I’m allergic to the food. I went back to work. I walked home after work. The customers hung around Sue commenting about her pregnancy according to my lip reading. I ate some dinner. I didn’t do much after dinner. I’m still working tomorrow. I hope the pills are not addicted. I hope not. I don’t want to over sleep again. I did some cleaning. I vacuumed my room. The vacuum is like the vacuums on earth in the twentieth century. It was good to clean my room. The cats sat at the doorway watching me clean. I took a shower after that. Victoria snuck in the bathroom with me. She tried to take a shower with me. She went in the tub then came out fast. I guess she’s afraid of water. The cats are in my room exploring. It’s nice to see them in my room. I didn’t feel them walking all over me last night. I didn’t take the pill. I think it might be addicted. I left Sean a message on his phone. I asked him if the pills are addicted. I wanted to be sure. I think I’ll go to bed. I have been feeling like there was someone in front of me in my house. I felt like someone a ghost moved aside to let me walk around the house and it doesn't make any sense at all. I felt that running in the forest feeling again. This time I checked the weather report then I went outside and ran around in my wolf form. I saw another wolf who I knew was Bruce. We played tag and mock battles playing with each other. Then we cuddled together and sat in the snow licking each other. I saw a white wolf watching us play. Bruce went up to it and did a bow and gestured with his wolf head to do the same which I did. The white wolf nodded its head and watched us continue to frolic in the snow. Then when it got dark I went inside the house as Bruce walked away. I feel like I’m in love.
Love,

Dear Anne,
I couldn’t sleep. I dreamed that I was sitting on a plane with my mom asleep next to me. I was looking out the window. I could practically feel the vibrations. I had my journal opened on my lap with a pen in my hand.
I read what I wrote "Mom is taking me to Alaska for another doctor to help me cope with the Virus."
What the heck is this? I'm cured of the virus. I'm not living in the past but the future. I woke up when a cat landed on me. oof. I think it was Demeter. I’m going to be tired. I tried to go back to sleep. I took a pill and I’m feeling the affects right now.
I got up and I over slept pass my alarm clock. I got a message from Anna on my videophone. She told me Sean asked her to let me work shorter hours today. I left Sean a message about over sleeping pass my alarm clock. Then I’m going back to bed. I set my alarm clock to wake me up before noon which it did. I had a dream of mom taking me by the hand through a crowded airport. I tried to read the signs but they didn't make any sense at all. They were bunch of gibberish. Ugh. I had some breakfast. I set the machine to feed the cats. Then I packed a snack in a lunch bag. I
walked to work. I did some shopping. I didn’t buy a thing. Work was fine. I wonder why Sean asked Anna for me to work shorter hours today. I asked Anna. She told me she was following doctor’s orders. I checked the break schedule. I have a break coming up. It’s a good thing I packed a snack. Sue wasn’t here. She called out sick. I think it’s her pregnancy. She’s now three months pregnant. The baby is due in September. I can’t wait for her to have the baby. I don’t know if I want to have a baby.
My break is twenty minutes long. After work Anna told me to go to the auditorium. There was a driving class. I went to the auditorium the driving class was fine. I saw Bruce there. We chatted in sign language about the driving class. Several people asked us what we were talking about. They were curious about our sign language. Then Jeff came onto the stage and pulled something like a wheel from the middle of the stage and then the back of the stage behind him became a screen. He told us to get in line and drive to see how well we were.
There were computer stimulation's of driving a car and flying it. Each person took their turn and some were rudely laughing at the people who drove erratically. Then it was my turn and I drove
