Dream: In my back yard, the side farthest from the porch, by the fence... My nextdoor neighbor (a mix of very many people, but resembling John B. and Mal the most) is there with his dog. It is big and black and bearish. Somehow I suddenly see it when it was a puppy and comment that it has grown very quickly. The man begins to explain the guidelines for raising a dog to be very large, among them "..and you have to kiss it if it is overweight." The dog is very friendly, despite his alarming size. I pet him. He has a wide, laughing smile. The man calls him a clown a few times and the dog smiles at me.... Then there are tables set up in the yard, like a restaurant, and there are more people there with us. The waiter brings out boxes of sweets...
