I present an uncomfortable tale:
I had a very hard time sleeping one night last week, and pretty much didn't sleep at all. So when Pooteewheet's alarm went off, I hurried out of bed and struggled into the shower downstairs so I could get in and out and not hold her up. I washed my hair and then heard a dime drop. That's not a phrase of speech - I actually heard a dime drop. I looked around and Eisenhower staring back at me from the floor of the shower. That in itself is peculiar, but worse...my hair was almost completely dry! And when I went into the living room, almost 20 minutes had passed. Occam's razor says to follow the most logical explanation, and I can only assume that I was abducted from my shower by aliens who probed me and left me a dime for the trouble, not understanding that most humans feel it's worth far more than that amount. Or else I fell asleep standing up, bumped into the shower wall, and knocked lose the dime Eryn had been playing with in the bathroom the day before. Damn aliens.
Sorry, my bad. It was payback for the time I had sleep paralysis and you were sneaking around in my hallway.
ReplyDeleteI admit the probe was a bit much.
