After a grueling day at the office, Ray came home, climbed into bed with his wife, and fell asleep almost instantly. But his night took a wild and unexpected turn when he found himself in a strange dream.
Ray woke up in heaven, standing before St. Peter, who calmly informed him, “You died in your sleep, Ray.”
Shocked, Ray protested, “I’m dead? No way! I can’t die now—there’s too much to do. Please, bring me back!”
St. Peter explained that the only way Ray could return to Earth was by being reincarnated as a chicken. Reluctantly, Ray agreed, asking to be sent to a farm near his home.
Suddenly, Ray was surrounded by feathers, clucking, and pecking at the ground. A rooster approached and said, “So, you’re the new hen, huh? How’s your first day going?”
Ray, now a hen, replied, “Not bad, but I feel like I’m about to explode!”
The rooster laughed. “You’re ovulating. Don’t tell me you’ve never laid an egg before?”
“Never!” Ray exclaimed.
The rooster advised, “Just relax and let it happen. It’s no big deal.”
Ray followed the rooster’s advice, and moments later, he laid his first egg. Overwhelmed with pride, he laid another. Just as he was about to lay a third, he felt something hit the back of his head.
“Ray, wake up! You took a dump on the bed!” his wife shouted, shaking him awake.
Ray’s bizarre dream had come to an abrupt—and messy—end, leaving him both embarrassed and amused.
