It Disturbed Me Mightily

Last night we were channel surfing and stumbled on Discovery Health’s Super Surgery and saw the show entitled 200 Pound Tumor. May I never watch Discovery Health again. The subject of the show suffers from Neurofibromatosis and the 200 Pound Tumor almost killed her. Miraculously she recovered and looks like a completely different person.

After the show was over, I went to bed and read a little bit of Party of One. I’m in the midst of the crime chapter. You may ask yourself what does a 200 Pound Tumor have to do with me reading before going to sleep. I’m getting to that.


I turned off the light at 10:30 and went to sleep pretty easily. The next thing I knew something was trying to get me. I could only see its eyes. And, all I could hear was a shrieking noise. The shrieking noise was me. I was having a nightmare and I was actually sitting up in bed screaming when the better-half came running down the hall to find out what was the matter. He flipped on the overhead light and was yelling “What, What” to wake me up.

I felt pretty freaked. The better-half was pretty freaked. My heart was beating like I had just run a race. My hands were sweating so much that the skin in between my fingers was wet. The better-half had planned on coming to bed (it was 11:30) but decided instead to read in the other room since I had totally made him wide awake. It took me quite awhile to go back to sleep.
