At least we understand each other.

I am having a nightmare. In my sleep, I whimper, and the sound wakes Marc.


K (waking up): I'm sorry. I had a bad dream.
M: Hmm? About what?
K: Snakes
M: Snakes?
K: Yeah. Algebra snakes.
M: ...
K: Me and you and our friends were in a cabin, and there were all these snakes slithering around everywhere, climbing up people's arms and legs, and when I freaked out, everyone said, "Calm down, Kate. They're harmless. They're just algebra snakes."
M: Hm. Yes. Algebra snakes ARE harmless.
K: Really?
M: Yup. They're preoccupied.
K: Yeah, I guess so. Too busy solving for x-ssssssss.
