Wrenches, Leprechauns, and Acrobats
I wander outside. Everything is bright, almost too bright. Something is off. The next thing I know my head starts to spin. Everything is moving fast, but I am moving slow. All of a sudden, I feel--alive. For once in my life I don't feel like some zombie stuck in the corporate machine. I feel a sense of euphoria. I fall to my knees. My vision goes away. My hearing goes away. Everything is silent. Everything is black.
I awake.
"Where am I?" I think to myself. I look around, there are so many colors, so many colors that I can't even describe. Beautiful. Bright and euphoric, I continue on my path.
Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.
I awake.
I'm in my bed. On my nightstand is my ID badge.
"I guess it's just another day at the office." I mutter to myself.
