Sherlock Holmes and Nightmares

I woke up in the middle of the night and could not fall back to sleep. I was very fortunate that a Mystery Theater Sherlock Holmes episode was starting on PBS.

At the end of the story Dr. Watson got married. Sherlock ate a bon voyage dinner with the happy couple. Sherlock was being abandoned to his own devices, like maybe the free use of his hypodermic syringe.

It was so sad that I immediately fell asleep at the end of the show. I had nightmares. Then I woke up refreshed. Nightmares always refresh me, and give me a brighter outlook on the world and my place in it. They are worth the price.
