A Rude Awakening

[poliphilo]

My mother fell out of bed last night. I heard the crash and the exclamation and the alarm clock beeping and went into her room and found the bedside tables flung about as if there'd been an explosion and my mother lying on the far side of the bed, giggling.

She'd barked her shin. We put a dressing on it and helped her back into bed.

She seems fine this morning.

It was an unpleasant moment.

I went to sleep and almost immediately went into a nightmare about someone rushing into the room and tryng to strangle me.
