Tense Upon Awakening

I was having a dream, there were my 2 kids and another, a tall woman and I were trying to get them clean, my boy had some terrible build-up behind his ears, and they were all acting bratty.  I was telling my son to scrub well.  He was not washing the back of his head, at all.  And he didn’t appreciate my input.

Then the tall woman and I went off into the neighborhood.  We were coming through someone’s yard when he arrived home with his son, I had given the boy a puzzle, but he had done it, and he wanted to trade it in for another one.  I told him that would be fine.

I awoke, peaceful, happy, and gradually tension took over my chest and radiated out to my whole body.  I thought, “This is what I am curing with alcohol.”

I worried intensely for a while until I reconstructed my entire plan for World Domination.  I built back the idea one particle at a time until I felt okay to face the world.  Really scared right now, but I know what I’m going to do, and I think it will work.
