So, Last Night...
There I was, minding my own business, sound asleep, when it happened. I don't know if a gas pocket was breached, or what happened, but I released a long, very loud expulsion of toxic gas. The roar of the sonic boom echoed off the nearby remaining structures still standing. A large ash cloud poured forth and blotted out visible light. Neighbors ran out into the street, certain that their Doom was nigh. Dogs bit each other's noses, in a futile attempt to save one another. Squirrels threw themselves out of trees, desparately seeking the sweet release of death.
Fortunately, for all concerned, there was no discernable lava discharge.
Choking in the sulfurous fumes, my wife thwacked me over the head with her pillow. "What did you eat?" she croaked out, desparately gasping for fresh air.
"Chili, with Becan, of course", I replied. Then I went back to sleep.
Sorry for any inconvenience you may have experienced.
