I never believed all that extraterrestrial nonsense for most of my life. Of course, I don’t really watch much tv. I spend my days working in the garage. There’s always something that needs fixing. Anyhow, one night changed everything.
It was late and I was just wrapping up working on the truck before I cleaned up, grabbed some grub, and had a beer while I sat in my chair and listened to the game on the radio. Call me old fashion, but that’s how I like it.
Anyway, it all got strange when the power started flickering. Bright lights shined into all my windows. Then things got really weird. My beer started to float out of the bottle. All sorts of things levitated into the air. A giant white flash happened and everything went blank.
I remember laying down on a cold metal table. I could barely see anything because a blinding light was shining down on me. Figures were moving all around me. I couldn’t make out who or what they were, but I felt like I wasn’t all there. I felt aloof. Like it was all just one terrible nightmare. The next thing I remember, I woke up in my bed. I don’t know how I got there. I just chalked it up to a dream.
Now here’s where things get really strange. The next day my phone was ringing and I answered it. Apparently, I missed my doctor’s appointment. I was supposed to get one of them scans where they shove you into one of them machines with a giant magnet. But it wasn’t for another week. However, I went out to get the mail and there had to be a bucket’s worth of mail. It was starting to fall out of my box. After sorting through it all I found I had at least a week’s worth of mail. Apparently that little dream I had taken a week away from me.
That’s not all. I had to reschedule that scan and here’s where things get real weird. After I got my scan, the doctors pulled me in. They were stuttering and having a hard time trying to say what they were looking at. I told em to spit it out. Apparently, my innards had been rearranged. Can you imagine that? There’s no point in denying it now. Whatever happened to me on that cold metal table was not a dream. I was abducted by aliens. Just makes you wonder what kind of creatures are really out there…
The End.
Remember, you’re never safe in the dark…
