Monster Gone Missing
I dreamt last night that someone stole the Monster. Right out of my garage, while I wasn't looking. For some reason I'd left the garage unlocked, and the door lifted a couple feet. I spent a few moments looking at the now empty spot where I had expected to see my motorcycle, wondering if I'd misplaced it somehow, and that perhaps it wasn't really stolen. I finally concluded that no, I hadn't misplaced it, that this was exactly where I'd left it, that someone must have taken it, and darn, I left the key in the ignition. Strangely, I felt no emotion. No anger, no sadness. I just found myself standing there calculating how much money insurance would likely give me for it, and whether I had receipts for all the aftermarket parts I'd installed. I asked my (former) apartment manager, who lives above the garage, whether she'd noticed any suspicious activity. "Yeah, I did!" she replied, and I wondered why she hadn't done anything about it.
The thieves left my mountain bike, though. I remembered to check.
