[FRIAM] hidden

[Frank Wimberly]

Last night I woke up at 4:00 am and had to take a medication.  I was very
much asleep but also awake enough to think, "If I remember my current dream
it will help me go back to sleep" or some similar thought without words.  I
thought,  "Ah, I am dreaming about X".  I got up, walked into the
bathroom.  By the time I raised the cup of water to my lips I had forgotten
what "X" was.
