It was a nice day. I hung out with Pierre and Douma. They were meant to leave early in the morning but their plans changed. Last night they got a text saying their lift wouldn’t arrive until the afternoon.
I was praying I wouldn’t get a text from Maria asking me to come in for work in the morning. I wanted the day off to hang out with them. I didn’t get a text, thank God.
Maria texted me this morning saying she’d forgotten to text last night. She asked if I could come in. I said I’d already met up with some friends for the day.
So I took my guitar and we hung out in the park. I was telling Pierre abut the book ‘Initiation’. He was pretty interested.
We checked out the botanical gardens and then walked back into town.
We got some coffee and then they had to leave. They’ll be back in about 10 days.
It was still sorta strange seeing them holding hands and kissing. It felt like I was dreaming at times. It just seemed surreal. I never imagined that happening.
I’m happy for them, but I guess it will be difficult because Douma is going back to France pretty soon. Pierre is still in NZ for like 5 months.
I was trying to figure out if I was responsible for them getting together. I’d been in contact with both of them since Vipassana. I don’t they were texting each other.
Douma had come to Christchurch and we had hung out. I think I was the one who told her about Pierre being on a boat. I think that’s why she reached out to him. I think she just needed a place to stay for a night or two.
They met up and ended spending like three weeks together.
I gotta ask them if I was the reason they’re together!
Dreams
I was at Nana’s house. I heard her calling me. She asked if I would make her a microwave dinner. She wanted one with pork.
I was watching the Beatles make their Get Back documentary. They were performing songs next to the road. I was watching through a fence. George came over and said hi.
I was in a big park with Cary and Liam. We were smoking weed from a bong. Cary’s parents arrived to take him home. We hid the bong. Cary stuffed it in is bag without them noticing.
We all started walking. I was at the bottom of the hill. I turned and noticed that Liam and Cary had gone a different direction from the parents. I wondered if they were smoking again. I ran back up the hill.
I got to the top of the hill. There were many people at the side of the road. The sun was just coming up. I found Liam and Cary with some other guys. They’d already finished smoking. Someone introduced me to the owner of Rollickin’ gelato.
I started talking to a French guy.
