Fever Dreams

Oh man. I wish I could wake up and stay awake for more than 3 hours. Just now, I am about to set a record for 5 hours without a fever.

I have been sleeping very good the past week, with some very funky dreams sprinkled in.

One dream was that I went down a golden spiral staircase 2,000 feet in the ground. No one had ever gone down the entire staircase before. I got all the way to the bottom. It was a well lit area covered in blue stone gravel. I expected a lot of trash there like wrappers and cans tossed from up high, but instead it was very clean and the air was fresh.

I was dreading the assent. I was sure that I didn’t have the energy to get back to the surface all in one day. Suddenly I saw a guy coming out of a public restroom. I asked him if he knew an easier way out other than climbing the stairs 2,000 feet.

“Sure”, he said. “Take that door by the restroom. You’ll find a car you can use. Continue out of the parking lot and turn left at the second light. That will run you right into I-10 and that will take you all the way to Cincinnati. Once you are in Cincinnati you should be able to get home.”

Okay…. Cincinnati is a long way from where I thought I was.
