Man Realizes Entire Life Hasn’t Been a Dream

Cliff Roberts, 43, of Phillipsburg New Jersey finally came to the halting realization that his life for the past 20 years has in fact NOT been a bad dream.

Roberts explained his life as perfect. “I’m married to the love of my life, Brazilian lingerie model Rosa Carlota, with whom I share my brilliant son, Jamie. We live together in a lush penthouse on the upper east side of Manhattan, where I own my thriving photography business.”

Roberts suffers from Acute Delusional Dream Disorder, or ADDD, a perfectly common mental development for men approaching middle age. According to psychiatrist Dr. Emmet Franklin, Roberts’s progressive case was resulting in a reversed perception of dream and reality. Apparently Roberts perceived his waking life as a simple night terror. Throughout the interview, he pinched himself at intermittent moments to assure himself that he was awake.

The reality described above by Roberts is actually the conceptual perfect dream-reality he had created. In actuality, Roberts is in the process of undergoing a painful divorce process in a custody battle over the couple’s aging Scottish terrier. His soon to be ex-wife requested the separation after having grown tired of his frequent Brazilian model wife antics, as well as the repeated shouts of, “I’m ready to wake up now!” His lush penthouse residence is currently in the form of a 20-year-old sofa bed occupying the corner of his parents’ attic throughout the duration of the divorce settlement.

Roberts admits that adjusting to reality is quite a shock, and he confesses he still feels a tender spot for his fantasy wife, Carlota.
