Welcome to bedtime stories for grown-ups, in which nothing much happens.

You feel good, and then you fall asleep.

I'm Catherine Nicolai, my right and read all the stories you hear on nothing much happens.

Your engineering is by Bob Witterstein.

You might be able to hear that my usually-sop horrific voice is less so this week.

I've been a little under the weather, and I'm almost recovered.

I don't want to keep anybody up with my voice tonight, so while I didn't want to interrupt

the ongoing adventures of Marmalade and Crumb, of which more await you next week, I thought

this might be the perfect opportunity for a little treat.

So we are bringing you a bonus episode that has only ever been available on our Premium

Plus feed.

The Premium Plus feed gives you our entire catalog all ad-free episodes, as well as monthly

bonus episodes, and our new, slightly more happens long shows.

If you'd like to subscribe, go to nothingmuchappens.com or see the link in our show notes.

Now, sweet dreams, head on to the show.

Whatever today has been like, it can end in soothing rust, just by following along with

the sound of my voice and the simple shape of our tale.

I'll tell it twice, and I'll go a little slower on the second telling.

Let the details you hear pull you into the world of the story, as if you were seeing and

hearing what it has to offer.

If you wake again in the middle of the night, turn your mind right back to those details.

And before you know it, you'll be waking up tomorrow, feeling refreshed.
