To sleep, perchance to dream.
To dream, perchance to imagine oneself neck-deep in a swimming pool full of thousand dollar bills, while chocolate-covered almonds rain down from cotton candy clouds.
To be delusional, perchance to imagine oneself in that swimming pool, when in reality, oneself is dropping a brick attached to a string from the upstairs landing, hoping to extract a tooth attached to the aforementioned string, to save money.
To practice ill-advised home medical procedures, perchance to find oneself in an emergency room, because the molar was reluctant to exit via the procedure, and the weight of the brick was just enough to get oneself off balance, when oneself glanced over the landing. Not quite enough of a fall to bring about unconsciousness, but more than enough to require a hasty trip to the hospital....
To ad-lib the cause of your injuries, perchance to alert the attending physician to discreetly invite
evaluators and investigators, even though the injuries are clearly impact related. After a brief flurry of questions, it is assumed by all involved that your story holds sufficient water to allow you to return home, where a bit of rest and medication will return your wounded body to normal.
So then, to sleep, perchance even to dream...
Chow for now!!
