GRIM ○ August 18 ○ 3:02am

"Do you like what I'm wearing, Grim?"

"Yes."

Presley's clingy red dress had less fabric than a handkerchief, hugging her perfect body so tight he could count her heartbeats through the material, and she wore red pumps with impossibly high heels.

"Do you want to have sex with me, Grim?"

"Yes."

Presley smiled. "Not even in your dreams. You know this is a dream, don't you?"

"Yes. That's why you're two hundred feet tall."

Giant Presley smiled, an impossibly wide goblin smile, baring teeth like crooked, thrift-store knives. "You're a worthless, insignificant jerk, Grim. You'll never have me. You'll never have anything."

As Giant Presley lifted her giant spikey heel to impale him, Grim woke up.

He looked around for the liquor bottle, and the realization slapped him.

<I'm out of booze. I've been out for days.>

That realization hit even harder than that nightmare.

<I've tried to go cold turkey before, and always failed.

<I guess I always did it wrong.

<The real way to quit booze was to run out of money.>

A thought so amusing that Grim actually LOLed.

<Maybe I should rob a liquor store.

<I could get money. And booze. One-stop shopping.

<But that would require getting out of bed.>

He closed his eyes, trying to get back to sleep, hoping that if Giant Presley stepped on him, it would be a quick death.
