For my friend, pre-wedding humor made an important point

A young female friend I'll call Peggy had a pre-wedding humor dream. Not exactly like Martin Luther King had a dream, but nonetheless important to her personally. For nearly two years, she and Bill had dated. A month before she called me on her cell phone to tell me all about it, she'd begun noticing Mr. Right maybe...wasn't.

In fact, he'd begun spying on her.

When she left her office at the end of each workday, a truck resembling Bill's Ford pickup could be seen parked down the block. When she was home alone, phone calls would come in on the landline but no one would respond when she answered. Day in, day out. Big Bill had not ACCUSED her of anything, but he surely seemed overly OBSERVANT.

They had planned a June wedding. One night in late May, Peggy went to bed with the Onstar commercial on her mind. You know, one of those where they can help you because your car has a microchip that tells a satellite EXACTLY where you are.

That's when she had the dream.

=================================================================

Peggy went to bed and had a powerful dream
She got a call on her car phone in the headlight beam
The voice on the phone said she was from Wrongstart
From the satellite she'd noticed Peggy had a broken down heart
And she knew where Peggy was anywhere in the world
She was always looking out for little baby Peggy girl
Then she mentioned that she'd noticed all the tires were flat
Peggy stared at her Caddy, and they were at that

So Peggy started laughing and she left her Caddy there
Grabbed a rubber band and quickly pony-tailed her hair
Stuck out her thumb and caught a ride with a fellow in a Chevy
A classic '57 model, the car was cool, the guy was heavy
When she woke up from the dream she got dressed and then called Bill
Told him it was over, went to I-Hop, ate her fill

She liked the manager at I-Hop, married him three months ago
He was born in fifty-seven, but that you surely know
When Peggy told the story, happy that she'd dumped her load
She pointed out that older models have no Wrongstart tracking mode
Sometimes after work she'll have a quick one with the girls
Knowing that her heavy Chevy man would trust her with the world
When pre-wedding humor shows the truth in vivid dreams
She's tickled that she paid attention; some things are just what they seem

Publisher's note: It was hard to decide whether to call this one pre-wedding humor or dream humor, especially since pre-wedding humor actually turned into different-guy wedding humor. Either way, though, we love the story.
