The Earl of Nappington

"I sense that to my left someone is watching me. It makes me feel somehow uncomfortable, so I start to run. I am running, running, and yet I am getting nowhere. Still I am watched, still I try to run, still I make no progress, so I stop. I feel a cold hard wall to my right. I lean on it for support. There's a noise, a beep, a click. I lift my ear to listen. It falls against the wall and stays there. I try one last time to run, my feet fail to find the ground beneath them, at first I think I am moving at speed anyway, but if I am then the wall follows along side me at the very same pace. I still my fluffy feets. I pause. I look within myself and find there a gentle calm. My nose twitches, I exhale, I relax. Somehow this place of strange things suddenly feels like home. "

"Zzzzzzzz..."

    So much for to watch them when they're sleeping--as long as you know to check for breathing beforehand. :)
