Ah, the things I could write about my life so far.  Well, starting at last night, I didn't get any sleep, because my sleep glands ran up against an unexpected obstacle.  My brain/body functions combined to discover that my nose was horribly blocked, and had a dialogue between each other that ran something like this:
Sleep Gland:  I want sleep.
Brain:  We're supposed to be asleep.  Gawain got to bed relatively early, let's make the most of it!
Body:  Uh, slight problem guys.
Brain:  What is it?  Where?  Who?
Sleep Gland:  I want sleep.
Brain:  Which?  Why?  Meaning of life?
Body:  Um, the, uh, breathing passage is blocked.
Brain:  Oh, that's right, we have a cold.  So?
Body:  So if we sleep, we'll, uh, suffocate to death, like.  Can't breath through nose.  Can't breathe through mouth or it'll dry out.
Brain:  Yes yes, good point.  Oh, I see.  Very good point.
Body:  So no sleep tonight?
Brain:  I guess so.  Damn.  Get onto that virus!
Sleep Gland:  I want sleep.
Body:  Will do.  Should be gone in a week or so.
Brain:  This is annoying.  I was looking forward to another freaky dream like last night.
Something like that.  I didn't get the whole conversation.
As for the rest of my life, I can't be stuffed.  Next time if you're lucky perhaps.

How interesting.
Word.
Is there a sleep gland?
Technically, yes. Specifically, no. Prepositionally, I WANT CHEESECAKE!!!
Theoretically, that doesn't make sense!
Analytically, my left nostril is a Tasmanian. Goes by the name of Harold.
Well, maybe. But how can you tell? What is real? Are you sure you have a left nostril?
In answer to your questions: I can tell because I have been imbued with knowledge. Real is defined by its user(s). My left nostril forms an integral part of my bodily functions and therefore does not exist (hypothetically).
A question for you!
How many doctors know how to create a left nostril? Just in case mine goes missing, I may need a backup... You've got me all worried.
I’m sure that in some parallel dimension I would, in fact, be able to create a left nostril. For a small fee. My pan-dimensional abilities also enable me to detect a message from someone you know, and it reads thus: Why don’t you send her a decent email, instead of responding to meaningless spoutings from some anonymous person? Just a suggestion…
Yes yes, I did already.
So [cough] about those sleep glands....
