Five More Minutes

1:30 am.


Bedroom






Me:               Trips over something in the dark.
                      Ouch!
                     Turns on bedside light.


Husband:      Wakes up.
                      Can I have five more minutes?


Me:               No. You can have five more hours.
                     Hastily turns off light.

    1. Heh. Does it sound better if I actually gave him seven? I just couldn't resist the parallel structure of "five more..." ;-)

  2. "You can have five more hours." What more blessed phrase has any sleeper ever heard?

  4. Lol. I trip over things in the light more than the dark. ;)

    1. Heh. I've been known to say, "Excuse me," to plants and tables when I bump into them. :-)
