“Jim, wake up,” I head David’s voice in the distance. Louder, “Come on, it’s time to get up.” I opened my eyes to a bright sunny morning with the light streaming through the basement window.
I was back in my house. I started to sit up but couldn’t. The straps across my body held me down on the vinyl mattress. I was in my Posey straitjacket, and Dave, my partner for six months now, was unlocking the cell door. He brought a water bottle with straw to my lips, and I drank the refreshing cold water.
Dave was dressed in tight 501s and a tee shirt. He said, “Don’t drink too fast now.”
He looked at me and I looked at him. With a knowing expression he said, “You had the dream again.”
“Yes,” I said between sips of water. “And you had a starring role.”
