Dream Six

I am in a generic beige room. There is a vertical divider element to one side. My brother Simon is there. My brother is telling me that there are four specific requirements for a successful relationship. I cannot recall what they are now, but they make sense at the time. He goes on to say that I've only got one of them, and that only part of the way. This infuriates me. I've never been this angry before. Samantha is standing a ways away, crying. Simon is passive. I poke Simon in the chest and tell him that this is NOT the time, that we'll talk about this LATER.

Non Dream:
Memory from rafting on the colorado: During one break I was taking a nap in the sun on a rock and simon poured a cup of ice cold water on my head. I stood up and screamed right in his face... an incoherent hurricane of noise. He was quite taken aback. I came close to striking him. Instinctual violent response.

Back to Dream:
The whole scene replays from the beginning. Simon describes the four terms. This time, my arm is around Samantha and we're laughing at him and the requirements.
