I had a dream last night. And I dreamed the mice were gone.

I was home and you weren't and there was someone else there but I don't know who it was.

He (or she or whomever it was) was trying to tell me to just open the door. He was telling me that it would all be ok if I opened the door, but I was defiant and I told him that I couldn't open the door because the mice would get in. And I remember I was convinced that he was crazy and I had this picture of all these mice outside the door just waiting to come in. So I didn't open the door.

Well, some time passed, you know how time passes in dreams where it doesn't really pass but you know it has passed. And I guess somehow he must have convinced me to open the door because after the time passed I was going to the door, but I wasn't very happy about it, and I was shaking my head and grumbling about how the mice were going to come in and this was crazy. But I was still going to the door and maybe I was just going to open it to prove my point and let the mice in. But I opened it.

And when I opened the door, all these mice, from everywhere, under the couch and in the kitchen and in your room and just everywhere, they all ran into the living room, there were dozens of them, and flew past me and out of the house. And then they were gone.
