Woke in a darkened apartment; by that I mean it seemed dark enough so I could not clearly see my companion, more got the sense of who she was by the 'sense' of her. She seemed to be a former co-worker (who fairly recently quit and moved to the west coast). That co-worker was also someone who had been nice...but also seemed a bit driven, who at one point I'd had a minor conflict with, which had left me always a little wary of her thereafter. Why lights were not put on, I don't know. I may have even crept to the restroom and used it in the dream; still no lights. *sideways glance*
In any case, I suddenly recalled that my (former, now dead) cat (Janie) was alone in another place with no water. Became anxious and guiltily distressed, thinking that I needed to go out into the night (seemed to be about 11:30 pm), before the last public buses stopped for the night (the case in Boston, not where I am now btw), and go retrieve her, even though it might be dangerous, and I'd just been sleeping. Then I considered that I could also take a cab (though that would be expensive).
Then I woke for real, here. My current cat was well and with me; the time was around 2 am.
Took me a while to get back to sleep.
Sleep = Biphasic
EE meditation had been done prior to bedtime.
