Smiling people made me happy.
(this makes me happy also)

This was very funny. It kept me waiting to hear why people were laughing, of course I thought it was non fiction
hugs Heidi

    Hi, Heidi;
    can you imagine IF it were non-fiction? I think I would have been too ashamed to write about it!

    Thank you for reading,

You got me wondering, why is everyone staring? After I read this, "As the lady closest to me pointed with a snicker, I looked down. I wasn't wearing any pants." I assumed it was a dream. If it wasn't, poor you. That would've been embarrassing. Enjoyed!

I've actually had similar dreams. I find myself somewhere in public either stark naked or in a nightie. It's a relief to wake up. Good luck in the contest.

    Hi, Cindy;
    thank you so much for reading and reviewing. I used to hate it when I dreamt like this in high school. Now, it's just too funny.

Good morning, Patty

Good flow and pace. So now I know what you were getting those looks. I've had many a dream but nothing quite you had. Had I they would have run away screaming.

Take care and stay safe,

Ray

    Hi, Ray;

    Pretty sure this dream was a 'nightmare,' but I thought its retelling would make for a great story. Thank you for reading and reviewing,

OMG. My worst nightmare! You are very clever. The story was so matter-of-fact and chatty that when I reached the end I actually did laugh out loud. Clever to drop the radio conversation in there and mention Donald Trump. It set me on a completely different tangent, so that the last line was really unexpected and just a treat to read. Loved it.

I enjoyed reading your contest entry. I think all of us have had a very similar dream at one time or another. I know I have. LOL Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

    Hi, Barbara;
    Sometimes those dreams can be so much fun, right? I know when I was in high school, I was so paranoid about life in general, I had this dream about once a week. As an adult, it became high-stress situations, like work, church, and the grocery store. I just had to write about it,

I hate it when that happens! I love this well written little dream or was it really a dream? My luck I'd wake up at Wal-Mart in my tighies-whities. That would cause a scene.

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day and God bless.

Very nice story. I was wondering why everybody kept on smiling at her. Maybe it would have been even better if it hadn't been a dream.
Superbly written as usual.
Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

    Hi Gypsy;

    thank you for reading and reviewing 'My New Clothes.' I had so much fun writing this story. I know it's a twist on an old story, but I loved the surprise.
