Ok, I know people have dreamed in their languages before, but how about
dreaming about grammar?

In my dream this morning, some object kept wanting to take the agentive
derivational affix, so that it could be the do-ER, and I was trying to
keep a locative or instrumental derivational affix of some kind in it,
so that it would be the done-WITH or done-ON object.

I think the verb was throne-sitting.  I wanted the thing to be a throne,
and it wanted to *sit* on one :)
