"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Dreams of Sleeping
This morning, as I lay sleeping, I dreamt I was sleeping. I slept in very late for me - about 9 am. In the dream, I dreamt I slept until 11:30. So, I have an extra two and a half hours of dream sleep under my belt. That should keep me extra refreshed today. I am off to get breakfast with friends now.
