I had a dream where I was on a fishing vessel somewhere in the cold waters off
Newfoundland. Meef was an Irish version of Martin Sheen's character from "Wall
Street" and he urged us not to lose faith in the union, speaking in a rich Irish
brogue. As we drank Black and Tans left over from a previous gathering, we sat
on the starboard side and looked at the setting sun and the silouhettes it created.
Our vessel was large and grey and did not cut the water in any way resembling
the smooth precision of the more sleek boats. And so we sat on and reflected on
a great many things. We eventually reached our destination, we disembarked and
went in search of hotel reservations. Whilst waiting in line, a little child ahead
of me asked the lady at the counter if cigars were allowed in the rooms. Appalled
by this, I went in search of the bathroom, where I was upset to find that it was
a unisex restroom that was carpeted. Some hotel. Leaving the restroom without
relieving myself, I almost ran into a Greek priest I knew from earlier days. He
didn't see me. I found out I had lost my traveling companions, so I resumed my
spot in line, only this time asking for a room with a single bed.
