Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 14, 2019

Was this inspired by Calvin using a cookie to mess with Hobbes’s dreams?

I once heard a song in a dream, and after waking up, I realized it was an original composition by my subconscious, and the melody held up in the waking world. It was a death metal song about a godzilla-ish monster.

good try anyway, Phoebe

(Sarcastically) Really Marigold? Tell us more!

So she dreamed to be awake?

Marigold 1, Phoebe 0

I would had not interfered with Marigold’s dreaming if I were Phoebe (I would also suggest she remembers to treat other beings in ways in which she might want them to treat her (such as good ways)).

I’m reminded of the one where two adult kids take their father to a hypnotist to cure his insomnia. After his “You are getting sleepy” spiel, the old man’s heads drops and he appears to nod off. The hypnotist tiptoes out of the room, whereupon the old man says “Is that idiot gone yet?”

“It’s just really super important”? Phoebe has no future in improv.

Marigold is cute when she’s dreaming.

I had a dream where I dove off the high dive at the public pool, and I reached the bottom and pushed off, and right then my calf cramped up, and I woke up because my calf was actually cramping up.

Where’s Luna when you need her?

Maybe, just maybe, Phoebe isn’t cut out for a career as a hypnotist?

Why’s she twitching?
