 What the??? |
Ever had one of those dreams where you go to work or school and forget to wear pants? I have and, sadly, it's come all too true.
Don't insult me and pretend you haven't had the dream. We all have and it's nothing to be ashamed of. What's shameful is when the dream is reality, and that, again sadly, has become my reality.
I handed my shoes to the parent-types and insisted that we do some "bye-bye." Without anywhere to go we hit the courtyard. It may sound like fun but I now realize I wasn't quite as prepared as I might have wanted. You can guess where this is going.
We're out there having a ball, the neighbors are all watching me, laughing and smiling. Then it hits me. Oh no, I'm not wearing any pants.
Don't I have people to watch out for this, to dress me and make sure the paparazzi don''t get any good dirt? Thank goodness they aren't interested in us, for all of the many assorted reasons, this one included.
It's okay to dream, to believe in things grand and elusive, but I'm here to tell you that some dreams should be left in your psyche and never surface in your waking life. This is just one such, though a very good, example.

ABOVE - As much as I'd like to pretend it never happened, me sitting on the big wheel says it did. What on earth would make my "life with no pants" dream surface to reality? This just can't be right!
