Cindy made a cameo in my dreams last night. Usually when I dream about Cindy it’s a long, drawn out plot. It usually involves me being with her, fighting with her, exploring with her, loving her.

However, last night in my dreams, I saw her and looked the other way, ignoring her. I was in a bar, and out of the corner of my eye I saw her sitting in a booth with another man. They were apart from each other, with sullen expressions on their faces. When she saw me her gaze locked, but expression did not change.

I can only guess at what this “means”, if anything. In the past when I dreamt of Cindy, I woke up feeling sad. This morning I woke up feeling empowered.

Perhaps now, finally, four years after breaking up, I’m free. Now, if I could only get these Michele dreams to go away…
