Deluded Dreams

Well, pride cometh before a fall.

There I was - proudly blogging my amazingly detailed, action-packed dreams – envisioning the reason I was so blessed was due to my innate creativity and right-brained wired mind.

So, you can imagine, it came as quite a surprise to me yesterday, as I sat in my doctor’s office, to be told a side effect of my new blood pressure medication is…extremely vivid dreams.

A side effect? Of boring blood pressure medication?

Really?

“It’s quite common,” my doctor told me as I sat there in stunned silence, seeing my reasons for intriguing dreaming reduced to a tiny, two-tone blue pill.

It’s not so bad. I suppose it’s not totally unthinkable that Stephen King, J. K. Rowling, and Stephenie Meyer might also be on blood pressure medication?

Hey, a girl can dream.

Leave it to some pill to do that.

You might want to check out those authors. They may have been holding out on us.
