I recently told someone a story about a friend of a friend of a friend who ate some mushrooms and accidentally kidnapped a little boy because he thought he was an elf. Last night I talked to the friend from whom I heard the story, and I got it all wrong! It turns out that instead of a three-year-old, it was a ten-year-old. And he thought it was a troll, not an elf. Also, the boy had Downs syndrome. And I think I forgot the detail about him keeping the boy in his closet with a saucer of milk.

Now that we cleared that up, I’m going to try to remember which of my friends I told this story.
