Mister Sandman, bring me a dream.
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen.
Give him two lips like roses in clover.
Then tell him that is lonesome nights are over.

Golly gosh haven't we all been a big bunch of sleepyheads lately?

Comments

[ofhope]

Yes.

Sleepy.

[jimfromit]

Sounds like somebody is still half asleep there bucko.

[ofhope]

Usually.

[jimfromit]

Aw don't tell me you're still pining over Mr Clock?

[ofhope]

[ Rude. ]

Rude.

[jimfromit]

Maybe.

But accurate.

[ofhope]

Presumptuous.


...You are...?

[jimfromit]

Still haven't heard a denial from you young man.

I'm just an observant neighbour.

[ofhope]

Observing old news.

[jimfromit]

If you say so.

[ofhope]

Does it matter? Did you know him?

[jimfromit]

We talked from time to time.

Charming guy really...I much preferred his company instead of some of the cretins that are still here.

[ofhope]

Cretins. That's strong.

[jimfromit]

I prefer not to mince my words.

[ofhope]

Except when it's convenient?

[jimfromit]

Bingo.

I mean wheres the fun in being convenient?

[ofhope]

Anything can be fun.

[jimfromit]

Can be.

Usually isn't though.

[ofhope]

Well I guess it's a good thing I don't really worry about being a people pleaser.

[jimfromit]

You shouldn't really...it's something of a dead end career path.
