Coffee Musings 021507

I woke up in a strange dream. I was an employee somewhere, and sometimes I was late like I just arrived late because I was looking at gift stores or something. I can see this happening because gift stores in museums are very cool, and have some neat jewelry.

Also, there seemed to have been a sense of moving forward in the dream, as in where there was a huge space of desolation there now was a usable monument, somewhere that children can play, and the relevance of the monument was not lost.

When I was in the gift store of the museum that had a book about this monument I almost bought a juice glass that was brilliant colors. The rest of the dream was in drab colors, but this juice glass was clear except for the monuments of Washington DC that were painted on it. The Washington Monument was a brilliant white, and the sky was a brilliant blue, and trees were brilliant colors. The most I remember about an actual monument was the Washington Monument because then I knew it was Washington DC, but I just remember the sense of the brilliance of the colors. I wasn't able to buy it then as I was late for my meeting, and I needed to buy two.

I was at this meeting, late, and I was about to tell my excuse, it was an outside meeting, when the person holding the meeting (a woman, who looked familiar, maybe a movie personality) just told me to shutup and the rest of the employees including myself were to sit in a circle. We were sitting on the grass, but also on the pavement where cars could go back or forth. I remember that where we sat wasn't the most comfortable, as in my dream was not situated in a field of barley or just on a park. We were sitting down the hill from that place that now held the children's monument, and the resulting children's school behind it. She asked which of us were not able to make it to event type things, and a man rattled off the amount of going-away parties he couldn't attend, and he was really heartbroken. Then I woke up.

I still remember the glasses as brilliant, though. It's cold out, and I have to trudge it to work today.
