How about a story?

You know, life has been on an even keel lately. Nothing bad to complain about nothing amazing to shout about. So I thought maybe I'd pull out a story for you to help me with.

You simply pick up where the last comment left off. Ready?

He whispered to her," This was a wonderful idea dear." She sighed in response, sleep already claiming her. Bernie closed his eyes and started to drift off himself. It was a CRACK that snapped his eyes back open. "What was that?" Bernie said in a hoarse whisper. Just then.......................

"At least it's only naked sleepwalking," replied Mildred, "that's harmless compared to your father who...."

..."has been hitting on me for the past three years of our marriage."

"But my father has been dead for years," Bernie replied. "And we're not even married!"

Mildred looked flabbergasted. Just then, Nurse Franny appeared. "Bernie, Mildred...it's time for your medication, dears."

Bernie and Mildred slowly...

We're supposed to finish this?

I vote for a sexual encounter followed by a long, peaceful slumber.

or maybe a bear attack. Yeah, a bear attack is better. Throw in a bobcat, too.
