Lying in bed, I was running a checklist of things to do in the A.M. Call the vet, turn in my report to Mr. Poedunker, go by the grocery store.....Closing my eyelids,I fell into a most delicious sleep.
R.E.M. Time!!!!
Driving through rolling hills on a rain soaked day has always been one of my favorite pastimes. Sunshine struck the dark clouds that lay before me. The rays of light streaked across the clouds and the ethereal beauty of the moment made my heart gladden.
As I became engulfed by the darkness of the clouds, I turned my headlights on. Rounding a bend in the road, I struck a slick spot and spun into what I believed to be a pool of water. My engine had gone dead and I tried in vain to start my car. I could see my attempts were futile so I tried to exit the vehicle. The doors would not budge and I sought to see just how dire my circumstances were.
Peering into the murk which surrounded me, I saw Bugbomb!! Panic attack!! How did I get into this Parallel Universe? I frantically pounded on the doors and the windows as Bugbomb circled my vehicle. Wait!! What's this? In the headlights, I discerned a swaggering silouette.
JOHN WAYNE!!!
I would recognize that swaggering walk anywhere. But no!! As the figure came into the view of my headlights, l saw the face of Michael McManus!!! He dodged Bugbomb and crushed one of the car windows. Pulling me through the aperture,he behested me to follow him.
I tried to run ever so fast but my legs seemed to be moving in slow motion. Frustration and fear gripped
my very being and I turned my head to look behind me.
I saw a Cluster Lizard approaching the car and I saw its cavernous mouth open. At that particular moment,
Bugbomb flew into that dark orafice and the ensuing explosion sent me hurtling through space. I could
feel the force of the blast and the warm flying meat bombarding my body.
Down, down, down. Hysterically, I tumbled in a fall that seemed unending. My eyes searched for an end and then I saw the ground coming to meet me. I'm going to die!!! Just as this thought entered my mind, the ground turned to water and I felt my body submerge.
At least I can kick my way back to the surface or so I thought. Once again, my legs would not work. My lungs ached for air and I had visions of milk-fed boys dancing through my mind. I'm hallucinating! My mouth opened and water rushed in and I began to breathe. I'm able to breathe? This must be something I've done in the past and I had just forgotten that I had this amazing ability!
I focused on my watery environ and to my pleasure I saw Michael swimming toward me. His strokes were sure and his lips were pursed in determination. When he reached my position, he put his arms around me and we kicked to the surface in perfect unison.
Michael assisted me to the bank of the body of water and led me by my arm to a safer haven. Gratitude whelmed within me and I slowly put my arms around his neck and pressed my lips to his. To my surprize, I found his mouth searching mine.
Time out!!! Howcome I'm getting this positive response from this dreamy man? Oh, this is no time for a reality check! Confound you reason of all reason! Let's think about this. This is my dream and I have the power to control! Ah! The power of the subconscious mind. I win!!
My mouth sought those brooding full lips and I could feel his pulsating body as he pulled me to him. As we slipped to the ground, I caught sight of brains all in a row. They seemed to be singing some little ditty.
Dum-Dum-Dum,Datta-Te-Dummm-Get it on!!!!!
Ummmmmm.....No Problemo........
