Notecard

So, I came across this note that I jotted down just after waking from a dream:

Catsthetics


(You see, in my dream, I had lost my left arm, but instead of a prosthetic arm, doctors had installed a cat. Cat prosthetic=catsthetic.)

Next to it I wrote:

too weird to be a story.
not funny enough to be funny.


What I remember of the dream is that my left arm didn't do much of anything I wanted it to--but it was a good mouser.

And the funny thing is that the addendum makes it funny.

Exactly. It's like, my subconscious knew that we did not have something, but felt compelled to record it anyway, but then warned me about it.

Workin' over time in there, I am.

Well, I laughed. And the idea is too weird for anything else but fiction... If you wrote it, I'd read it ;-)

Your unconscious is truly a strange and frightening place.

I think the worst part was putting my "hands" in my lap. There were... attacks.
