I think I had an abstract dream about the content of this episode before I awoke earlier before watching this episode on television. I almost slept a normal period of sleep. There were no details in the dream that are similar to this episode but the plot element of "Lisa" and "Homer" makes me think it could be associated with Michelle Kwan and me.
After I wrote that sentence, I thought of how apt the analogy of the communications towers is to the notion of us having some kind of paranormal ability to communicate in such manner.
Then I started thinking fully about the actual content of the dream and the setting seemed to be of a classroom where a woman was instructing me on how the perform some kind of biological experiment. I listened to her instructions and then the scene changed slightly as I was preparing to conduct my experiment and I was bundling up in a medical lab coat and I could see myself fastening the clasps on the sleeves and I was aware that my face was partially covered. I could see other people in the room but I seemed to be in my own cubicle and there was glass panes separating the other people and then I could clearly see that I made a precise surgical incision into the object of my biological experiment and that was when I woke up. I puzzled over why that scene had left me feeling as though I would not be eating any food anytime soon because I could not get that scene out of my mind. The feeling passed after I watched that episode and I did not have trouble eating any food.
