yarrhg! I was still asleep

LOL, that's all I got. Thank you, Kevin, I needed that.

Best,

I believe Coleridge said a similar thing, when de Quincey came banging on his door for another fix...

LOL, Don't you hate it when that happens? I mean... that's never happened to me... I'm just saying... you could imagine if it did.

Lose the yarrhg! A) it doesn't need it and, B) it spoils the syllable count....... And no idea what you're talking about.

He's still in bed, I believe, and his dream was a bit too real, lol.

A) I wanted some kind of verbal exclamation of dismay
B) Yes, it spoils it. Hmmm...new concept for me.
C) It's a "potty" joke about "bedwetting." Universal theme don't you think?
I considered adding the line "...time to change the sheets." Just having a little fun.

thanks for your suggestions.

Gave me a chuckle with this one... not that it's ever happened to me, of course. Well, not since around the age of three or so.

I enjoy the usage of the word "yarrhg!", not too many people use it in poetry or writing. It almost makes me think that it's a bedwetting pirate, which makes it even funnier. Simple and funny.
