Passport to Nowhere

I had a passport for several years and used it for several trips.   Yes, I used to travel for business a lot and had many frequent flyer miles to enjoy vacations too.   Then I stopped traveling and let my passport expire.   

I have no idea why, but I have a recurring dream that I find myself either at the airport ready to depart, or already in another country, and I don't have my passport.   It's a dream that's filled with anxiety over finding the passport.   I either have to return home to get it, thereby missing my flight, or I have to somehow deal with the authorities in a foreign country over my missing passport.   Either way, it's stressful and causes fitful sleep.   I hope renewing my passport will take this dream out of my mind.

After the dreaded passport dream,  I woke up too early yesterday, about 4:45, and didn't feel well rested at all.   We went to Cambria and took a rather short stroll.   It was still foggy, it was chilly, and there was a breeze.   I enjoyed walking there, as I always do, but I was just plain tired.   I came home and crawled back into bed for a much needed rest.   

I will comb the beach another day in search of more pretty pebbles.
