In my dream I was writing a philosophical treatis of some sort - maybe on Nietzsche - I was in the house where I grew up in my parent's bedroom. My old undergrad philosopher professor was there and he was helping me put the writing together for a slide show. I've no idea what I was writing about, but the patten of the paragraphs meant something. As I was writing, my pen became very heavy and started to pull towards the west. I wrestled with it for a bit and then just let it go. It flung into the door. I went to retrieve it, but when I did I looked out the window where I saw a very strange cloud formation. They looked like dolphins over the mountains in the west (I stared out in Ohio and ended up in Colorado). There was a feeling of dread that came over me, like this was the beginning of something horrible. I've no idea why dolphins represented that - perhaps in a "So Long and Thanki for all the Fish" sort of way.
