A bit of dark humor via an unsettling dream...

... obviously I've been following politics and "Star Wars" too closely as of late.

I had a dream last night I found out I was Trump's illegitimate son and my own father in real life had adopted me (totally absurd since I look, act, and sound just like my Dad, a smart and fun-loving soul).

And it was a crushing, horrible piece of news which made me feel ashamed and revolted. Zero elation over "Well, maybe he can loan me some money, at least." Money didn't even enter the dream; who cares about money?

In the dream I told my real life Dad: "You'll always be the only Dad I'll ever have. I refuse to be related to that scumbag."

Then my brain bailed on that and I woke up. The only dream I ever had which was worse was the one in which the state police called me to tell me my wife was dead (she's fine in real life).

And as I sat up in the darkness I thought: "My God, it was just a dream. My Dad is really my Dad. I'm not Donald Trump's kid, thank God!"

Truly the stuff of nightmares...
