Pronunciation: home/a/tose

Sentence: Once again Ling ended up right where he started. Thanks to the piped in elevator music on the bus which always induced a homatose state, he had gone full circle and found himself waking to the bus driver shouting, "Hey you back there! End of the line!" Three nights a week he not only missed dinner, but ended up wasting money on cab fare AND flowers!
