Hopefully the Next Dream Is Not About Deadwood

It's really too bad that HBO cancelled Rome. I loved the show even though, as a fan of Roman history, I should have loathed most of the liberties they took with the series such as Augustus the BDSM fan who had sex with his sister. However, there were a lot of parts that I loved, so I was not surprised when I had a Rome-inspired dream last night.

In the dream, I was walking along the Roman countryside and bumped into the two main charactures, Lucious Vorenus and Titus Pullo, just hanging out. We were walking around making jokes about Pompeii and the Trojan War, ambling through the countryside. It was all very pleasant until I suddenly found myself in the middle of some insane battle. Imagine the first scene of Saving Private Ryan crossed with 300 and you have an idea of what I was going through. I was never actually fighting, but just watching everything cut back and forth in the third person.

The battle didn't last long as I was able to shake myself awake, and when I fell back asleep I dreamed that I was running up the aisles of the Coliseum for exercise, which is better than fighting, but the whole thing would have been a lot easier if I was dreaming of Niobe (Indira Varma) or at least Gaia.
