Holman has been stranded on a planet of slimy worm-like creatures for over 20 years. He is finally rescued by other Earthlings, but first Holman has to tell them of how he's adapted to the creatures and he has to show them his wife. His beautiful, loving, wonderful wife. On a planet of slimy worm-like creatures? Holman may have not have all his circuits connected, but the painting of his wife shows she is attractive. For a similar story told slightly better, try "Hallucination Orbit." (from "The Critical X Minus One" by Jim Fanisher)
