I had this dream where I was hiring somebody to teach Spanish, and she had three eyes.
Usually in a dream I know immediately when it’s not real when something very abnormal happens.
But the 3-eyed Spanish instructor gave me no pause because I expect every weirdness from fellow teachers.
By the way, I’m extremely disturbed by eye abnormalities. Klara has to warn me about any posters or toys from The Minions because they freak me out.
Ah, Clarissa, as I type my final comment of the night in a sleepy haze before going to bed at 2:00 a.m. Arizona time, I am thrilled by the wondrous potential of your clairvoyant dream about the very first of all the new 3-eyed teachers to come. Soon such deep-sighted teachers will be in every class, and what they see with that third eye will revolutionize teaching, and change the course of higher academic classes — and the effect on all students involved FOREVER.
My short-story writing creative muse has been on an extended vacation for the past several years, but your miraculous dream has reawakened him. Please have a few more dreams about your coming 3-eyed teachers to give me added direction for the fantasy story that I hope to write, based on your dreams/thoughts and my own fertile imagination.
If this develops into a publication-level work, you will get full-credit for the original idea and 50% payment for all fees from whatever publicaton sales the fantasy receives.
Do I have your blessing to proceed?
I’m always happy to serve as an inspiration to a writer, so please go ahead.

My youngest is enchanted by the minions characters– doesn’t even know what they are, but the merchandise is everywhere and unavoidable. He calls them the “yellow eyeball guys”.

I feel disturbed even just thinking about them. Brrrr.
But kids have much stronger nervous systems. Klara finds it funny that I’m so scared of them but she treats my weirdness with kindness.
