[Magdalen] Dream On.

[H Angus]

Jay, your dad's dream is my variant on the second dream also. I can't find the classroom where I'm supposed to have been teaching, I'm afraid all the students will have left by now, and I'm supposed to have taught them all semester and be ready for grading.

When I wake, I easily translate this to "feeling overwhelmed right now."

I have the #2 dream frequently. Still. After all these years! My dad had a
variant of it, which was that he was supposed to have been teaching a
course but had never met the class, never given a lecture, and was now
supposed to give an exam and hand in grades.
