I began realizing Cathy and I had decided to communicate with each other in our dreams, if we possibly could. I was so lucid I felt like simply waking up. But instead I began concentrating on Cathy's name and repeated it over and over, trying intensely to direct it to her. A couple times I tried to speak out her name, but realized I couldn't seem to speak in my sleep, although I did manage to move my lips. Finally however in a crisp, stentorian scream, I succeeded in hollering out her name. The name seemed to reverberate and echo beautifully in the barn, until finally I heard Cathy rouse and say something about my having scared her. I wanted to say something else to her, because I was unsure she knew what was going on, but once again I found myself unable to talk. I was just hoping that when I actually did wake up, I would remember this and could ask her if she thought she had heard me trying to communicate with her last night.
