NOTES ON WAKING

Luna terraformed from dead to a sparse biosphere = I used to be sick ALL the time. Now it's just SOME of the time. Progress!
Boundary = in therapy yesterday I realized... before age 10, I felt free. Not because I was--I just hadn't hit my parents' boundaries and rules yet--hadn't grown out to the prison wall.
Paper mache, mold and solidify figure = sculpting a new self. The general form is right, but no details yet.
Many figures = must practice over and over till the new me is automatic!
Blind cat man = feline intuition! I fear to look at faces, eyes--I'm socially blind--but I navigate socially with other inhumanly sharp senses. UNLESS it's too crowded! I need solitude and quiet for my echo-location to work.
Master Cat = the Catmaster, the subtle soul who (in Cordwainer Smith's books) runs The Department Store of Heart's Desire.
My Vulcan friend = I have logic on my side too, now. Jung was wrong. Reason doesn't have to conflict a bit with intuition!
I block on names in the crowd = get so overwhelmed in crowds I go stupid...
Skate wobbly alone to reach a girl I like = even though I'm shaky in social situations, logic and intuition aren't essential. Love's about feeling.
ACTION: I can find love, IF I get out there--even wobbly as I am.
