I was just reminded of a crazy dream I had the other night. Wanna hear it? Here it goes.

The other night I dreamt that me and my boyfriend were at an improv show. It was outside in like an amphitheater or something but way smaller. The host picked Tyler to participate in a sketch in which he was wrestling Amy Pohler to the ground. She was wearing a really tiny black dress and she yelled “I wish I’d worn underwear today!”.

I was in the audience and thought of a really, really funny joke to say but I waited a beat too long to stand up and yell it. But I stood up and told it anyway. The joke, in my dream, was REALLY FUNNY. It was something like “Don’t worry, its daylight savings time, it doesn’t matter if the curtains are pulled over the windows!” In the dream this joke was hilarious! I mean it! It was funny because I think I was thinking about a ladies “vulva” as the curtains, as in meat curtains (SORRY AMY!)

 and the window I guess would be the underwear, covering the curtains. Needless to say the joke fell flat, but NOT because it wasn’t funny or didn’t make any sense (which, in retrospect I know to be the case) but because I waited too long to deliver it. The host said as much. He yelled. “That joke was ill-timed!”. I was, in the dream, mortified but also outraged that nobody laughed. I woke my boyfriend up in the middle of the night and tried to tell him the joke to see if it was just me or if the joke really didn’t make any sense. Imagine getting woken up from a dead sleep to here this. Poor baby, he was VERY CONFUSED!

 PS My friend Monica had an improv joke THE SAME NIGHT. Only hers was just quick. They were going to a comedy club and the marquee read IMPROVE TONIGHT.
