Not Dreaming

When Ronald first woke up on that March morning, he thought he was still dreaming. It was, after all, the most likely explanation. He was in a fancy hotel room he had never seen before, but the more obvious indication that he was dreaming was the fact that he now had the body of a woman.

It all felt so real -- probably more real than any dream he could recall. Maybe all dreams felt like this, and they didn’t feel like a dream until he woke up. Of course, that was his initial course of action, to try to wake up. Nothing seemed to work, so instead he grabbed a bottle from the room’s fridge and started drinking.

He honestly couldn’t remember feeling drunk in a dream before either, but it was happening this time. Speaking of which, shouldn’t something more be happening if this was a dream? Otherwise, it would seem to be a boring one. Then again, what if he wasn’t dreaming?
