A Dream to Remember

She was swimming in a vat of Jello, surprised that it wasn't sticky at all. She glided through the lime green goodness, a sea full of it. It was Jello as far as the eye could see and deeper than one could fathom.

Sudden, she felt something touch her feet and then she saw something yellow with black spots skim the surface. Sticking her head into the Jello, she could see--albeit in a green tinge--a figure swimming below her in circles at great speed. Then it jumped up into the air and flipped ten times before falling back down.

In the air, flecks of green flicked off its body. It had the head of a dolphin, the tail of a monkey, and the body of a cheetah. After it dove back into the Jello, it came back to the surface and talked to her.

"Wake up," it said, "Beep, beep, beep!"
