A RINGING SLAP (August 4, 2011)
I dreamt that I was sleeping next to my beloved and that she suddenly gave me a ringing slap. I immediately woke up, raised my head, and yelled: “What?” But she was sleeping peacefully next to me. Luckily, my yell did not wake her up. I was so confused by the slap that it took me a while to fall asleep again. It was a great joy to tell my beloved about the dream when she woke up, though. She laughed and laughed. “You must be feeling guilty about something,” she offered at last with a teasing giggle.
