   I really miss the comforts of home.

Hear the storyline. Harry just came back from a vacation in Africa.  He told his friend how badly he had missed the comforts of home.
Gabby: Hi, Harry, it's great to see you again.  I heard you've traveled a lot recently.
Harry: Yeah.  In the past three months I traveled to many countries in Africa.
Gabby: Well, I really envy you!  Did you pet a hyena?  (Harry is dumbfounded.)  I'm just kidding.
Harry: Well, I didn't pet a hyena, but I was once chased by a rhino, and it was fun!
Gabby: Are you serious?
Harry: No.  I'm just kidding.
Gabby: You really scared the heck out of me.
Harry: (Laughing....)  Well, I really missed the comforts of home.  Now I just want to take a break.  A long break!
