mlle ghoul's fairy tales from the shadows

Had the loveliest, sweetest dreams last night.  They started off somewhat sad…I had lost a person, or a pet, or something very dear to me.  I was absolutely heartbroken, moping about and fading away like a pale, pitiful ghost.

At some point something changed.  I think I pulled the curtains aside.  They were heavy, velvet things which did not let in any light. The sun was enormous in the sky, as close as my nearest neighbor.  It was glinting off the rooftops and nearly blinding.  It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.

I don’t remember anything else that happened, though I don’t quite think that was quite the end of it.  I woke up with a feeling of almost ridiculous bliss.  And then I went to work, which pretty much ended that.
