Back to my childhood in the 1980s.
I can still remember a dream I had when I was, I suppose five or so. In the dream, a large monster took a bite out of my right cheek (my face cheek, not my butt cheek, people) and ripped it right off. Now, here comes the most frightening part. When I woke up from that dream, I had a sharp pain in the very same cheek. To this day, I still don't know how that happened to my cheek just because of that dream.
Another memory from my early childhood was when I was at a water park on a hot Summer day. I remember going through this tube or tunnel and sliding into a pool of water to cool off. Before the tunnel, though, I remember walking through some hot toy balls...the kind you'd see in a ball pit. I didn't like how hot they felt on my feet, so I couldn't wait to go through the water tunnel and into the pool.
Some of my favorite childhood memories involved watching the trains going by in the city I used to live in back then. I lived (and still live) in New Jersey and the trains I remember when I was young used to look like this...
If only these trains would come back. I miss them so much.
