Still feeling a chill that had been plaguing me since the day
before, I fall asleep shortly after the obligatory dinner.

I am looking intently at a map, showing part of what I have some
reason to think is Oklahoma, showing a region containing several
land-locked lakes.  Multiple labels show the changing position of
towns or other landmarks as the lakes shrink over time.  I recall
looking at a place name with four or five letters, starting with J.

I am reading a newspaper clipping, showing a lanky, white-skinned
man.  The story relates that "Jamie Can Con Lee" (approximate)
regrets that he will not be joining a team in Toronto (basketball,
I assume from the photograph) because "Gee, my wife will miss all
her friends."

A white-haired man is intoning something regretfully, apparently
in reference to a girl who is disappointed by the above.

Something that might be blood but looks more like runny strawberry
jam washes over a small section of tile wall.  I hear a creaking
in the room and wake up.  I am no longer afflicted by the chill.
