Unable to fall asleep that night, Albert lay awake, thinking about the taste of his key lime pie.

Christmas Eve night, the night before a big trip, and when I get a new piece of camping equipment that I am really excited to try out...these are all my own anticipatory moments that parallel what Albert is going through here. Pure excitement fills your mind and you can hardly stay in bed to rest for whatever you are looking forward to enjoying. For Albert, every one of those thoughts is interlaced with a vivid  memory of the  taste of the key lime pie. I really hope he’s able to get some sleep.
