Woke up after a dream in which I was driving my wife home from a social outing and I signaled to change lanes. #Minnesotans will race up to cut you off if you signal, but I'm not from here so I signal, and someone raced up and rammed me from behind, injuring my head. My wife had to deal with the other driver while they yelled at me, tore their shirt, and loudly prayed to God in the middle of the highway.

Hell of a way to wake up. #dreams
