A Disturbing Dream

Last night, I had a rather disturbing dream.
I dreamt I was pregnant.
Not just a little pregnant, I was about six months along and as big as a house. The weird thing about the dream is that I had been hiding my pregnancy from Mr. Demonic. He had just started to notice me getting a bit [...]

An Entirely Strange Dream

Last night was the first time in seventy-two hours that I finally got a decent night’s sleep.

Last night, I had a dream, and it’s one that I’ve had several times over the last thirty-five years or so.
