This is weird. Am I dreaming that I'm blogging what I'm dreaming about? Or am I blogging that I'm dreaming about what I'm blogging about?

I wonder if this new study was designed better than this one:
The Free-Ride offspring have been enjoying their Spring Break visiting with the Grandparents Who Lurk But Seldom Comment. The night before they left, however, the younger Free-Ride offspring awoke in the wee hours because of a bad dream.
The Boston Globe Ideas section recently published a short interview I did with Kelly Bulkeley, author of the quite interesting "Dreaming in the World's Religions".
Railroad Sunset (1929, oil on canvas).
How about that? Fish happen to be the single most frequently recurring theme of my dreams as well, though they're of the freshwater persuasion. Must be a work-related injury.
No. Actually, I think that you're dreaming that you're dreaming what you're blogging about.
Dreaming of nubile young women eh? Does the wife know?

Those are not "nubile young women," they are mermaids. Entirely different. ;^) ;^)
Let's Just Say (tm from another list), there was a cartoon in an old Playboy about a sailor trying to decide between two mermaids: one was tetrapod from the waist up, the other from the waist down.
Decisions, decisions....

I recommend taking off the eyeglasses before turning in for the night.
That picture looks a lot like the illustrations in "The Hunting of the Snark".
I'm guessing wanting his dreams to be clearer is the main reason this guy sleeps with his glasses on...
I particularly like the octopus heading groinwards with a hardback book under one tentacle and a very leery look in its eye.
Or maybe it's heading back: 'Run away! These humans got wierd stuff down there...'
Lucky!
In that you're sleeping now.
Reading these posts are just as entertaining as the picture. Quite frankly, if I was dreaming about those things pictured, I'd probably wake up screaming and run to the therapist!

Re; #8 -- Yes, the first thought I had was that it was something by Tenniel. It shows many of the characteristics of his work. Of course, that may have been a popular style at the time.
#15 - it doesn't have Tenniel's mark, though, and I think Tenniel mainly worked for ''Punch''. And, yes, Tenniel did work in a popular style - Du Maurier, some of D. H. Friston's work, and various others are similar.
# 16 - You mention D. H. Friston. He was my great, great, great, great grandfather. I've been researching his work for genealogy purposes. Do you have any further information on him?
