Phantasmagoric


 
He said I was sitting up in bed
hungrily eating Altoids

out of the tin
as if they were candy.

I remember that dream:
He said, “what are you doing?”

No response, I kept eating. He took
the tin away ...I was thankful. 

We agree
this part is real:  I lay back down
and slept soundly.

That definitely sounds like a 'phantasmagoric' experience, Judy! Smiles...

Ha!! That's funny...very dream-like...sometimes I have dreams that I can't tell if I'm awake or not...this feels like one of those. :)

Hee hee. My daughter talks in her sleep - once she asked her fella to get her a subway sandwich. He dutifully went out, bought the sandwich and came back. She had no idea what he was doing, waking her up and giving her a sandwich. I dont think he follows sleeptalking orders any more:-)

Aw g'wan. You made that up! No morning breath, that day, if it's true!

Ella said...

You are funny! I have that dream except with popcorn ;D

Too funny, Sherry. I'll have to tell my husband that one, maybe he'll feel less frightened by this episode of mine and the Altoids. LOL I told him maybe we just both had the same dream?

Fireblossom, it's true unfortunately. I was shocked when Bill told me that day and I said, "Hey, I had a dream of that very same thing". LOL He couldn't figure out how I could eat high powered Altoids one after the other. No bad breath for a while I think. LOL

Ella, hmmm, I might put a bowl of popcorn next to my bed incase that happens again. That seems like a healthy choice. :)

Tee hee :D

I could just see your husband, flummoxed and trying to think of an explanation for why this was happening. Awesomely funny :D

That moment trying to decide what is real and what isn't..scary place. At least you weren't consuming chocolate. :)
