"Historically, we have never been meant to sleep in the same bed as each other. It is a bizarre thing to do”
an Austrian study suggests sleeping with your partner ‘drains your brain’ .. if you’re male that is.
This would explain my recent inability to cope with the simplest of tasks. This evening Kitten had to instruct me how to open one of those new ‘boxes’ of chili. Perhaps also the reason I can’t read any more than two paragraphs before wondering off into a daydream about green scrubby pads.
Kitten is jealous of my ability to instantly pass out asleep, almost on command. But the truth is I almost wake up every time I have to change position in bed. It could be the cat. Or the 99-degree night time temperatures that cause my lighter sleep. I hope it’s not my new sleeping arrangements.
How awful would that be?
‘Honey … can I sleep alone tonight? I have a big project at work to do in the morning” … of course she may say .. “Riiiiight … you work with gloves, how smart do you have to be anyway, GET IN BED!”
“yes dear”*
*disclaimer: my new wife is NOTHING like this … it was just a characterization of an ‘everyman’ kind of situation. Really hun, you ain’t making me a stupider are anything.
