I am standing in a living room with a pornographic paperback in my hand. I have a little bit of warning that a giant wave is coming. Can I put my book somewhere that it won’t get wet?

The wave comes; it is so tall that it curves over me and crashes in foam that is like whipped egg white. But I am left in an airspace. I can breathe, and the book is not wet yet, but there is no safe dry place I can put it.

A second wave arches over me, leaving an airspace and this frothy foam. This time the air feels somewhat restricted--I am breathing, but I don’t seem to be getting enough oxygen. I keep breathing, but I am getting worried I will soon run out of air.

I know that eventually I will get completely wet--the book, too.

EDITOR'S NOTE

I wish Jenny had said more about wave and book. It's hard not to suspect some symbolism in huge waves promising to get a sex book all wet! But what waking-world situation is the dream commenting on?
