Strange dream
I just woke up this morning and remember a weird dream. In my dream I was living with my family in a 3 flat house in what seemed to be somewhere on the south side of Chicago but I've never seen it in real life. I was in the living room talking to one of my sisters and all of a sudden I hear someone talking and singing outside. I look out the window and there is a dog with a human head running around in the neighbor's yard talking and singing to himself.
