"And if he left off dreaming about you, where do you suppose you'd be? ... You'd be nowhere. Why, you're only a sort of thing in his dream! If that there King was to wake you'd go out -- bang! -- just like a candle!"

"Hush! You'll be waking him, I'm afraid, if you make so much noise."

"Well it's no use your talking about waking him when you're only one of the things in his dream. You know very well you're not real."

Confusion: what ought to go here?

***

December 4th Phil spent 3 hours with his gloved hands dipped in ammonia and the two of us talking about miracles. He snipped off a third of my hair and deepened the old brassy pool highlights to something almost as dark as a Brazil nut. My natural color. No one likes it as much but me and Phil, but ya'll are just nostalgic for hair I keep out of laziness and disregard. If you trimmed your hair only twice a year and never did a thing to it but take a brush to it in the morning, you'd have hair down to your tail bone too.
