Yup, this morning I wake up thinking that I am going to suffocate, it was so real just like in your own dream: "raise the Lord for bringing a merciful end to this nightmare of mythic proportions.
" Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

    Thanks for the bonussssss!

    This was inspired by a dream I'd had the prior night! I've got StoryLand on the brain 24/7.

Oh Liz! Yer such a witty nut! I had to read your story a second time, as usual. The first time, I've always got my nose inside a dictionary. I'll have an Arts degree with an English major since I fanned you a while back.
Do you eat bedtime snacks? Or do you become Dagwood Bumstead at midnight, raiding the fridge with a gurgling tummy? That's what gives you these nightmares, dear!
Nicely penned!
Hugs,
Kimbob

I dived for my dictionary as soon as I opened your write. Another tongue -in -cheek humour in your inimitable style. I think my response in poorly constructed English must serve as an anti0dote. keep them coming!:)

Seriously...you need to publish a book! (Attention Editors!)-- your wit is outstanding! You are a new age Era Bombeck with a much broader range of topics! I promise to come to your first book signing event, start your fan club...and accompany you for your one on one sit down with Oprah! I was laughing OUT LOUD!--Karenina

Has anyone ever told you that you could make a really good living by being a paid fixture at parties? LOL
This is such a funny and clever take on the cliché stories where the hero suddenly wakes up and realizes it was all a nightmare.
Really enjoyed this, and I really don't have 6 stars remaining!

We all have to eat humble pie at times, and some of us , like me, get use to the taste. I always enjoy reading your clever essays. I'm glad that you have no problems with apologies.

    This piece was facetious--the whole thing was a dream--based on a real dream I'd had last night! Thanks for the bonussssss!

You really should watch what you eat before going to bed - anything purple can come back to bite you.
In this story your unembellished concision will continue to enhance your impeccable reputation.

I was digging through your story and your wonderful description twisted me up like a pretzel and then I read the last paragraph. That cleared everything up perfectly :-)))

Waking up to find out we haven't embarrassed ourselves with our big mouths is always a great feeling. But then there are those times when we have to bite our tongues so hard to keep from saying what we truly feel. The best of life, and the worst of it. Thank for sharing.

Yep, It's a lovely portrait of dainty little girl holding her tulips, but I do think she is being eaten but an enormous flock? pod? herd? of octopuses
I have those kind of dreams too, when have chilli before going to bed.

    Perhaps I'd have found a pic of yellow tulips--but when I found that I went with it as a whimsical touch.
