My own imagination might kill me someday

[soul_hunter]

Two nights saw me roused from bed by bad dreams that left me literally breathless and with a bass drum where my heart should be.  Both times, as my chest thundered uncontrollably, I held a hand against it hard, wondering if that night would witness a cardiac arrest finally finishing me off.  Maybe it was the fact that I missed another week of trips

DDD:
The first nightmare, God, I'm so glad I never dream about flight problems!, it must have been horrible for you!
The second one, awsome!, I mean, scary, but awsome; it makes you wonder where do we get such things from, some nightmares are so filled with emotion that it would be silly not to use them as a writer, I think.

Oh, and I forgot to add the boring old folks comment:
I find that too much food before dinner = nightmares and tachycardia.
Yep.

My thoughts exactly. It may have been scary being there, but it's Heat-level great story material.
