**Stage 1 Cycle 2 Week 1**
-
Interesting week off of DE. I did start RICH but have had nine days off of my main title. The plan from here is to add one loop of RICH every night or every other depending on how I handle it.
The week started with my feeling a sense of anxiety which I focused on financial things. Sense of looming disaster might be a better way of putting that. It grew starting the first day I didn’t listen when I normally would and peaked around Thursday night. I took a bit of action on Friday, and it cleared completely. I felt really good all weekend.
I was very productive during my three days off. I got a contact made that might be useful in solving some of our financial problems. Got a good amount of cleaning done in the kitchen, and yesterday, went to Home Depot to get some things to do a couple of simple things around the house that I’ve been putting off for like ever. Add to that that I made some good home cooked meals, and I did pretty good this weekend. -
We went out to eat this Friday. They seated us in a kind of side room with one rectangular table. Then The Emperor came out. I had the very natural thought that I sit at the head of the table because that’s where the head of the household sits. I was aware of the symbolism and power dynamic implication of such a seemingly simple thing. As I sat down, the wife said “Really?”.

I had the first dream I can remember having since sometime in June while I slept before going to work this afternoon. It was an odd one.
I was at work, and doing security work as I actually do, in my mind it was my real life job. I’d agreed to work an extra night but instead of working the post I usually do, they had me patrol the facility. I didn’t know that when I agreed to it. I haven’t done that in years and it’s changed since then.
The place didn’t look like the complex I work at, it was this vast campus with huge mideavil looking buildings. I got kind of lost, and didn’t know how to do some of the things I was supposed to, so I found and asked a co worker. He kept saying stuff that was unrelated to what I was asking rather than helping. I remember being a bit worried about messing anything up because there were very rich and powerful higher ups here for some kind of event.
I somehow wound up on a platform on a cliff overlooking the complex. There was a half pipe slide kind of thing going down to ground level, but it was full of like cardboard boxes and empty plastic bottles and the like. This had something to do with the event that was going on. The point was to jump into the stuff and kind of cause an avalanche and slide down with it. I don’t remember why I decided to do it, I wasn’t supposed to, and would likely be caught because I was wearing my uniform and this was something for the rich powerful high status people at the event. I did it anyway.
When I got to the bottom, this older, obviously rich and connected lady met me. She gave me some advice about dealing with two of the powerful people who I was worried about catching me (neither name means anything to me). The one i recall is “Don’t expect a free meal from (name). She meant not to expect any kind of help from him unless it’s to his advantage. -
After her days off Paragon, the wife feels better.
