“You’ve got to help me, the man says to the psychiatrist. “Every night this week I’ve dreamed I’m playing in a volleyball game. Then I wake up exhausted.”
“Okay, here’s some medicine”, the doctor says. “Drink this now and it won’t happen again.”
“Can’t I wait and drink it tomorrow?” the man asks.
“Why?” the doctor asks.
“It’s our championship game tonight.”
