Clams Full of Sand 多沙的蛤蠣

I dreamed that I was working for a Taiwanese company that had relocated me to their U.S. branch, which was situated in the T-Mobile headquarters building. Apparently, T-Mobile had downsized some operations, freeing up space in the building, and our Taiwanese company moved in. That's where I was working.

For some reason, a colleague gave me a lot of clams. I felt a bit embarrassed at the time, thinking, "Wow! You gave me so many clams!"

Later, another colleague asked me, "Did you also get clams?" I said yes. He then said, "Make sure to clean them! Those clams have a lot of sand." I thought to myself, "I'll just let the clams sit for a while to expel the sand."

I remember that when I was about to make soup in the dream, I scooped some clams and put them in a clear teapot. Just as I was about to start cooking, I noticed that the bottom of the pot was full of sand. I thought, "I scooped from the top, so why is there still so much sand?"

As I was about to filter out the sand, I asked the same colleague, "Did your clams have this much sand too?" "Yes!" he replied.

There was so much sand that it seemed unreasonable. I found it very strange. The clams looked fine, so why was there so much sand?

夢見我在一個台灣企業工作，調到美國分公司，公司位置在 T-Mobile 總部大樓。好像是因為 T-Mobile 有些業務裁撤，所以部份大樓空出，我們台灣企業搬進去，而我就在這家公司上班。

不知道為何有位同事，給了我很多蛤蠣。當下我覺得很不好意思，想說：「哇！你給了我那麼多蛤蠣！」

後來另外一個同事問我：「你也有收到蛤蠣嗎？」我說對。他說：「你要洗一下喔！那些蛤蠣很多沙。」我心想：「反正就讓蛤蠣吐久一點沙嘛！」

我記得在夢裡要煮湯的時候，我就撈一些蛤蠣出來，裝在透明的茶壺裡。正要準備煮的時候，發現怎麼壺子下面都是沙。我心想：「明明是撈上面的蛤蠣，怎麼還有這麼多沙？」

當我準備要去過濾沙的時候，我就再問剛剛那位同事：「你的蛤蠣也是這麼多沙嗎？」「對！」

沙多到有點不太像話，我覺得很奇怪。這些蛤蠣看起來還好，可是怎麼會有這麼多沙？
