This afternoon I was taking a cat nap, and I had a dream that I was in the doghouse with the boss. In the dream, the boss was yelling at me to get my ducks in a row and even though I’m very organized I just clammed up. Nevertheless, when I woke up, it was hard to get back to work because I had ants in my pants. Let’s study together.
