Morning of October 7, 1972. Saturday.

Sally Struthers, the actress, visits me in my Cubitis bedroom in my dream. She mostly stands at the south end of the room near the head of my bed (dressed informally in blue jeans and a sweater) as I am supposedly “half-asleep” in-dream. She seems to be younger, as young as sixteen, and is telling me about the work she will be doing in the future related to helping people in poverty via PSAs and how it (her activism) will be more important than her acting.

She had been doing the voice for “The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show” (the television cartoon series) as Pebbles. She had also been in the Jack Nicholson movie “Five Easy Pieces” and the newer (at the time) "All in the Family" television series (which I watched regularly - even though I was probably too young to understand it all). She had also been a regular on “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour” (as a lesser known dancer, apparently), which I never really cared that much for as I grew older.

She wanted to sign her autograph for me on my dream journal page (which was open in both my dream and in real life on my nearby desk near the head of the bed) apparently to “prove” she had really been there in my room. That morning when I was awake, I was astounded to see that “she” had actually written something on the right-hand page, lower right side (of course that was not really the case). It was not her name; it was the word “sepia" instead. I had probably written her "name" in my half-sleep but wrote that instead. (I had not heard the word that much in real life prior to my dream and was not even fully sure what it meant.) There were also a couple false awakenings where I thought I had confirmed the signature, thereby confirming the visit.

This dream was somewhat precognitive relative to what she did in real life later on, concerning charities and such - at least relative to what I had personally known at the time.

Sepia: A dark brown ink or pigment originally prepared from the secretion of the cuttlefish.
