Boviosity!

I was at a family gathering - not my family, though - a joyous affair with really nice people. I also knew they were very wealthy. I was an outsider yet made to feel welcome. I decided to do the dishes as a show of friendliness. I washed the dishes but ran out of places to put the clean dishes. There was an elaborate knife block with many special knives including some that were quite fanciful.

I was attempting to ride public transportation to some worthy destination. I found myself in a station with many confusing platform and train options. I saw a train that looked like it was headed in the right direction so I jumped on just before it could leave. However, the train only went a few hundred yards before it encountered the end of the line (a stand-pipe looking affair in the middle of the tracks) and returned to the station. Frustrated, I shouted out, "This was a waste of all our time!" When we arrived back at the station the train that I actually needed was leaving and I resigned myself to waiting for the next one.

The train station has a magnificent entrance and landscaping with futuristic statuary and flyways, etc. Yet whenever I see this station (I've dreamed about it before) I always think A: I'm at Candler Park station and B: I might just walk instead, if only I were a little bit closer. Wherever I'm going, I'm very anxious to get there on time.

Something about elaborate house or landscaping work disrupting home life somehow.
