Last night I had an odd dream, highlighted by the fact that I remember a large part of it in great detail.
Some of it I can understand why it's there, but for any who are good at dream interpretation, I'd love to hear what this whole thing signifies.
First, a quick piece of background information: about a month ago, a dear friend of mine named Ivan, who is my acting coach, closed his acting school. Now the dream begins...
In my dream, Ivan had purchased a fairly large house and was converting it to a gymnasium. The house had a Spanish villa /Mediterranean look to it, with a winding paved stone driveway and walkway, lush plants with misters, Spanish tile roof, etc. I remember walking through the home, where there were a handful of what I must presume to be former students of his working on preparing the home/gym for the grand opening.
I walked up to Ivan and asked if he a list of personal trainers that he could mail and offer them incentives to train their clients at his gym. He said he did not and I offered to get that for him. I then began discussing the advertising/marketing plan for his new gym, and pointed out that he should focus on the benefits his place offers that other gyms can't.
"For example," I said, "you have a kitchen. You should point out people can prepare their post workout meals right here without having to rush home. Get your protein and carbs immediately after your workout." There were numerous nods of approval from the others. Ivan seemed excited at the idea, sitting at a small desk he quickly took notes.
"You should also emphasize the more personal feel here as opposed to the huge, uncaring corporate feel you get at those big chain gyms."
On my way out, I strolled around the pool, where there were half a dozen or so swimsuit clad individuals, male and female, and of course all of them with phenomenal physiques. From there I left Ivan's new endeavor and returned to a small, cramped and rather untidy apartment that I must assume was mine (think of a stereotypical slum neighborhood apartment and you'd have it.) And then, I woke up.
Boring and baffling is all I can say...
