El Tren

A painful repetition of exercises.

I've been dreaming about trains often.  I brought this up during my cozy catch-up sessions with KT and Jess at a Lake Union Irish pub called A Terrible Beauty, earlier this evening, seeking for their insight.  I read in "Water for Elephants" that trains are seen as symbols of directions and destinations.  Often when dreamt of, they imply a sense of digression or loss.  I'm perplexed at the idea of dreaming of trains so frequently, that I began to wonder what significance they pose in spite of my never riding a "real" one, ever.  It's likely beyond coincidence for such occurrences to exist at such a high rate.  Google insists that dreaming of trains have a Freudian complex which can be described as painful repetition of daily exercises.  Viz. the work week routine?  I wondered.  There's no special dread piling up behind the depths of my brain, as far as I'm aware, but I haven't really done much inspection lately.
