A few nights ago i put a pad of paper and a pen on the nightstand next to my bed and determined that i would write down some of my dreams so that i could recall them the next day. I can’t say for sure, but it seems that they’ve been rather interesting lately. Maybe they’ll give me good ideas for a short story. *shrug*
Well, as the night progressed, i woke up a time or two and scribbled something on the pad of paper – i remember this quite clearly. When morning came, i woke up and picked up the pad of paper – eager to see what my subconscious had dreamed up over the course of the night. What grand adventures had I undertaken? My wife gave me a curious look as i cursed the paper held in my hands. Then she started to laugh as i showed her my nights efforts: a big fat blank piece of paper. All those scribbled notes were just imagined! Curse you dream scribe! Update:Found a great comic that seemed quite pertinent: xkcd – 430

The whole scene has makes me laugh every time I think about it.
I think it’s hilarious partly because of the expression on your face when you looked at that blank note pad. It was a perfect mixture of bewilderment and irritation. But mostly I thought it was so funny because I’m no longer the only one in the house having funky, messed up dreams. Welcome to my dream word. *snicker*
That means something. This all means something. It’s terrible and sinister and embarrassing (which is what most of us are afraid our dreams mean.) I’ll spare you the interpretation. Definitely you should do it all again. And tell us all about it. Because that will mean something, especially if you wake up to find a picture of killroy on your notepad.
That is so funny!!!!
