over the rainbow
Sitting next to me in the bus (or was it a restaurant car?) Monique showed me a note in beautiful handwriting, attesting that she was to visit both the Lieutenant and the Colonel for one hour each. They were rather amazing tailors, and notorious rivals. I wondered aloud why she needed them.
"I need proper dresses now" she answered with a smiling nod. "What with receptions and all that."
"But why only one hour each?" I asked. "Are they that fast in measuring and sewing?!"
"No, silly" laughed Monique. "I'm going to tea so that they can meet me and hopefully like me."
It made a lot of sense until I woke up, and so did the whole rest of the dream last night.
