I'm in a large room, part of a school or something, and being asked if they could use my sound equipment...I say sure, and try to unpack things, everything is against a wall...I reach over try to get my hands around something like a speaker...hovering behind me, anxious, is someone like an instructor, or boss....and I get annoyed, whirl about, and tell them to lay off, and boast of the protests I've made...'I've been to the wall for this and that, this is nothing'....the boss or instructor listens standing very still...and I feel a bit flummoxed, knowing it's a hopeless argument I can't win....
I'm taking care of a house while the owners are away..it has a jacuzzi in the house, and a pool in the backyard....I'm in the house jacuzzi, which is a pool sorta thing, and then I'm in the backyard pool, which I think is nice to have all to myself, and I try to do laps, but it's too small...I dive under water, and see two rabbit like creatures sleeping...they stir when I near them, and I think, 'I need my underwater camera...'...and I go back to the house to get the camera...in the backyard, the pool has enlarged to like a large pond, and people have arrived playing in the pond, one person I dont like, and have a quarrel with...in the water, I see more critters, maybe sea serpents....
Morgan Freeman has a tv show called, Through the Wormhole....some of the subjects may be dream related...I haven't seen it....Freeman can yakity yak though....I've heard him go off on things on other shows...
Trying to recall what Greek muse was the dream muse..brb...
Well, there isn't a dream muse, but I read through wiki's take on the Muses, and it included Robert Grave's pronouncement on the poet's encounter with The Muse....Graves is an odd rabbit, and one is befuddled by just what personal iconography for things he inter weaved in all his works....anyway, I know there is a Greek god of sleep, and maybe one for dreams...brb...oh...here's link to wiki on muses:

The land of dreams (Demos Oneiroi) was located somewhere in the underworld, presumably near the domain of Night and her children. Poets often referred to the two gates leading from the dream realm. One gate was fashioned of sawn ivory, the other of polished horn. False dreams were said to pass through the gate of ivory, while truthful, prophetic dreams winged their way out through the gate of horn. There was also said to be a wilted elm tree in Morpheus' domain, upon which the dreams fashioned by the Oneiroi hung, with the appearance of winged phantom-shapes.

Pausanias is most at home in describing the religious art and architecture of Olympia and of Delphi. Yet, even in the most secluded regions of Greece, he is fascinated by all kinds of quaint and primitive images of the gods, holy relics, and many other sacred and mysterious objects. At Thebes he views the shields of those who died at the Battle of Leuctra, the ruins of the house of Pindar, and the statues of Hesiod, Arion, Thamyris, and Orpheus in the grove of the Muses on Helicon, as well as the portraits of Corinna at Tanagra and of Polybius in the cities of Arcadia.
