So did you ever have to pee in the night? Well, last night was one of those nights - i dreamt i was nonchalantly headed for the bathroom, nothing unusual. When after reaching a few dead ends, i found myself wandering around an apocalyptic landscape desperately searching for a bathroom! There was none to be found - but i did notice a small trailer like, stationary vehicle thingy that really looked like an old ice cream truck only in sparkling new condition! i ventured toward it and noticed it had a "For Sale" sign on it - $2.00! I was very excited by this since it seemed I had no home or anybody familiar nearby, simply a young child around 7 or 8 years old kind of tagging along beside me. When I noticed the child, I also noticed I was carrying a small tin beach type pail that had, get this, a little hog's head simmering in gravy! yuk (and I am a newbie/almost vegetarian) - and a single brown bean pod of sorts. I had apparently paid 55 cents for the two items and was going to be hard put to find the $2.00 necessary to buy the truck! Anyway, I opened the door of this strange vehicle and inside, it was outfitted with bathroom fixtures! A sink, a shower and a rather peculiar toilet! I opened the lid of the seat and underneath there was no opening just a bench - imagine my surprise - well not really! In one of these type dreams, one should actually expect to find a toilet that has no bowl! So, feeling somewhat urgent now, I decided to fashion my own toilet out of a bucket, lined with all sorts of plastic bags and a shower cap and cushioning around the rim - very suitable, I must say - I settle down on this homemade receptacle and begin to relieve myself - oops! I wake up and feel around the mattress! Thank God - nothing! and schlepp off to the "real" bathroom.
Boy would I love to sleep through the night occasionally - like a baby! Only sans the nappy, of course -
Until later,
Heather
