Did the Earth Move for You?

Waking from a dream, I see the walls trembling
Dogs are howling their woe
My eyes have trouble focusing
And my mind is rambling

Have I been struck down with a stroke?
Is it some form of mental illness?
Should I be calling 911?
(I fear that scythe carrying bloke.)

I hear a rumble closing in
Could it be an earthquake?
Am I about to be crushed
By the house I am within?

I finally shake the cobwebs out
And get my mind all clear
It’s only that I fell asleep
Again in my massage chair

    Well it seems that it did (move for me) but I didn’t notice! So funny that you chose 27 February to write this because there was an almost-unheard-of earthquake in the UK at 1 am that day. Was it a coincidence or not?

    LOL When we got new furniture (finally!) about 5 years ago, I insisted we get the couch with the two massaging recliners on each end – love it! :)

    I could really go for that massage chair right about now.

    A — I was actually aware of the earthquake in the UK — we get earthquakes where I live occasionally, but they’re very mild ones.

    Lady Rose — the massage chair feels wonderful and I sleep very deeply in it which is why I wake up disoriented.

    Josh — I would love to be able to work from my massage chair, however I don’t know how much work I would get done!

    I bet not a lot would get done. Right now I could think of nothing better than that chair and a good book.

    Dude, I wish we had a massage chair! Our old recliner had a massage feature built in, but sadly that chair was laid to rest. ;_;
