If anyone knows me, they know that I don't sleep alone. No...I'm not blessed to be sharing my bed with someone who will spoon with me, and whisper sweet nothings in my ear. I sleep with a four-legged, purring bed-hog. Sure it was all fun and games when Pooka and his sister Cro`i were small, and the three of us crammed in to bed together, and my biggest complaint was that Cro`i was sleeping between my knees. No...now it's down to just Pooka and myself because Pooka thinks he is my guardian orsomething.
I've had to start sleeping with a humidifier because of the heat in the house, and the frequent sinus infections I was getting from my sinuses getting dried out. Well, Pooka fell IN LOVE with the humidifier, to the point of that if I shut it of...he's tapping at in because he wants it on. Well last night was the icing on the cake. Last night, it was so bloody hot, I was actually asleep on top of the blanket (mind you it's just my sheet and a crocheted blankie), and had a difficult time falling asleep. (That could be attributed to the fact that the Patriots lost.)
Anyway, I had finally fallen asleep, and was actually facing the hallway, as opposed to the window. The humidifier is on the side of the bed which the window is on. But I was sound asleep....and comfortable. When a SHARP PINCH, on my arse no less woke me up. I mean my cheek was stinging! And I was scared....because as I mentioned before I SLEEP ALONE. (Even on the nights that I slept over squirrel's house, there was no sleep-induced ass-pinching.) So if I sleep alone, and something pinched my ass....was I having a paranormal expierence? Was some entity trying to gain my attention? Well before I screamed bloody murder, waking the house (see I didn't let my imagination get too carried away,) I gingerly reached out to see if my furry sidekick was in bed.
Lo and behold the furry bastard was! Sleeping on the left side of me, closest to the humidifier! AND he felt that I wasn't giving him emough room, because he was pushing...and I don't mean had his legs extended. I MEAN PUSHING with all his might against me, because he didn't have enough room. His toenails were what pinched my tender booty.
Typical male! That's what I say....wanting to hog the bed!
