Thanks Jo. I value you insight and will look at it that way. I like other people’s view of events because mine are filtered through my history and I miss some things.

I have been reading your thread and have wished you peace so many times.

National emergency exist in the US To me this represented (=)the people that are in marriages that have sever troubles.
big warehouse = maybe the board/forums here at DBing.
worked 16 hours shifts = about all the time I think about what to do next to improve the R or what I did wrong.
Everyone is kind of drafted = we are here but we don't like it. Drafted means we can't quit.
9/11 type of situation = rescue and damage control is needed.
no contact with anyone for 99% of the time. No passing national secrets or potential viruses or diseases. = don't use the forum as a dating site.
no contact with another person except for very short, business only e-mails, = talk about anything and everything in a business like manner. Don't read anything personal into any message. If some one likes sex 3 times a day and that person seems to be a potential dream partner, don't find ways to be with them.
I had to be there all of the time. = Working on a R is full time work.
The bed was to the left of my work area and to the right of the other person's work area. = the bed might be the internet. The bed might be the comfort I get from using the Internet.
Enter a 28-year-old female that I never see that is assigned to the same bed but at a different time, = other honorable women going through the same thing as men on the board are going.
do you know you are sleeping in the same bed with a 5'5" 120#, 28 yr old brunette? = some warning about something to do with if I were posting the things I post on a internet dating site it would be cheating.
(her side, my side, but never at the same time) = keep your questions and replys on the academic side, friendly but not too friendly.
Big emergency in the warehouse. I work for almost 2 days straight. The lights go out = times get tough, you work on the R extra hard. the more you do the more you see no hope.
A minimum amount of data is maintained and some comes in and some goes out to support the national emergency. = you are civil to your spouse but it is mostly silence between you two.
The equipment and data flow is Coma like = the R is almost dead but still breathing.
so dark in the warehouse I had trouble finding my way to my rest area = feeling lost in the R, little hope of making meaningful changes.
Female X is not there so I assume her machines (a little different than the ones I am assigned to) are doing something more than maintaining a coma state, = thinking other people, especially women are better at R repair or their situation is not as bad.
About 6 hours late I feel something warm at my back = the feeling of understanding and help others offer you. Feeling someone cares about you or your R.
Would us being in the same area at the same time be looked at as passing spy type secrets, = concern that what you post is over the line, too personal, can be used by a spouse to prove to someone you are in a EA with someone.
In the dream I woke up and we were surprised to see another person looking back at each other in the dark. We talked about our spouses, families, and friends back home. I got the feeling we were both dedicated to people back home that we were both pillars of the community where we came from. I felt I had just met the most honest, and hard working person there is anywhere on the face of the earth. = My actual feeling about other posters when I am awake. I have met some very nice people here and see from what they post (I know it is one persons view) they seen dedicated to their R.

Thanks again JO. Maybe my ideas above are a little to concrete. I wanted someone elses opinion before I posted mine.

The 28 yr old female could have been StubbornDyke/SD from the Hopefulness forum. I was thinking a lot about her situation and she posted on my thread I was going to be in her area and was thinking about stopping to se her and some glacial remains.

I was in a bit of a dilemma about seeing another poster, especially another female. BB had a fit about me seeing a guy I worked with 20 years ago in an auto repair shop. She does not like people coming to the house. We went to breakfast (the guys day off work) near the house 4 times and BB asked if I was gay. I said no, we talked about transmissions, jobs, and vacations/holidays we have been on. BB was really upset. I am not buying into her silly ideas as much anymore.

Lou Wishes of peace to you JO.
