"Raiding the fridge for a midnight snack, sis?"

"No, no. I only want a drink of water. I just ate."

"You shouldn't snack if you're watching your weight."

"I couldn't help it. Remember that big soft white pillow that Mom bought for me, to help me sleep?"

"Yeah?..."

"I just had a dream in which I ate an entire five-pound marshmallow..."

"Yeah?..."

"And when I woke up... the five-pound marshmallow that I keep next to my bed was missing."

"...I don't know why I bother talking to you after midnight."

"I don't know why you bother talking to me ever."
