The Dream

We all need to dream a little especially when we get older. Sometimes. It makes you feel like you’re young again.  Here’s a recurring dream I had not too long ago.

The Dream

 

In 2043, I reached the age of 100 years old and I was still mobile and in reasonably good health. I still had my beard and my hair was white and bushy. I had entered a contest sponsored by Super 8 Motels and won a trip for an eight day cruise of the Hawaiian Islands that came with an eight crazy girl escort to take care of my every need. ( Sorry Pam you weren’t in this one ). I flew first class to Hawaii ( Note that I dream in style ) and caught a taxi to the ship. Out front there were eight white headed shapely girls waiting for me with a big sign that said “Hawg Jaw Bill” so I headed for the girls. I must say I thought they would be a little older, but they were all in their twenties. They grabbed my bags and said follow us. So with one girl on each arm, we headed on the ship. They had already checked me in so they lead me to my suite and unpacked me while I rested on the bed.

 

They asked what I wanted to do first and I said ….”oh I’m too old for that, but I would like to go up on deck and get some sun.” They found me a nice lounger and brought me a Harps Lager to sip on, and tuned in a little George Jones on the iPad. After a couple of minutes they brought a tray of fresh fruit and started feeding me grapes one by one as I enjoyed the scenery both on and off the ship. Man, this was Hawg heaven for sure.

 

Later that day, I asked if any of them knew how to two step and one of them said ….”yes, I do.” I was thankful it was the one with the big cahooneys. We went to the country dance floor on the ship (well it was a dream) and we drank beer and cut a rug all evening. I was pretty tired so they escorted me to my room and I went to sleep.

 

The next morning they brought me breakfast in bed in their nightys. I had two eggs over medium with fried potatoes and ham with lots of warm buns. ( heh, heh ). I had booked a deep sea fishing excursion at the stop that day. The girls put on their bikinis and I put on my shorts and tank top and we hit the blue waters. I caught a 60 pound tuna with some help from the girls. The fishing boat owner said I could come back the next day for free if the girls wore the bikinis again. They had the cruise ship cook fry some tuna up like catfish and it was mouth watering good. Again I was tired so I hit the sack to get some rest.

 

I felt someone shaking me in the morning and then I heard….”Wake up Bill you’re snoring” and then I heard …”You’re smiling, are you having that crazy girly dream again?”  My bubble burst because it was my wife Pam instead of the crazy girls.

 

Dreams of fun things keeps your mind sharp while you are resting. May all your dreams be good ones.
