Boring Dream Fragment

<dream>
Even my dreams are boring lately. I recall that I was talking with two other Yanks about the time they spent in Berlin. One was describing that he lived close to the Wall in the French sector (which I supposed to be near Wedding). The other claimed that he too was near the Wall, but that the streets were named after American states. [I don't recall any streets named after American states in Berlin].
</dream>
There are three possible bases for this dream, at least on the dimension that I can perceive.

  1. earlier in the day I had been thinking about how nice it would be to visit my sister in Italy again. The unintended consequence of establishing the principle that your kids leave the house after high school is that they make lives for themselves far away from their parents. The result of this in turn is that we children visit our parents California and Maryland, but not nearly as often the other siblings in their native environment. This is a shame.
  2. I did stay in the French sector of Berlin. Freienwalderstraße to be precise. On my way to the apartment for the first time, I rode my Laverda on the Stadtring and overshot Freienwalderstr. and began to cross a bridge, where a guard armed with a submachine stepped out beneath a huge sign "YOU ARE LEAVING THE FRENCH SECTOR." Welcome to Berlin.
  3. I had too many sweets yesterday: a Dr. Pepper at lunch, a Kit-Kat at the office, a Capri-Sun at home, and ice cream for dessert. This may also explain why I awoke at 4:41 am.
