2 DAYS UNTIL NEW YEARS
The art of sleeping?
Erik: Gabby! *Shakes me Gently* Hey, it's almost noon!
Me: I'm busy love
Erik: How can you sleep so late? I've been up for hours
Me: I just do
Erik: Oh, well can you teach me how?
Me: It's not something that can be taught really, you just do it
Erik: So it's a skill
Me: mhmmmm
Erik: Well either you should get up, or you should try to teach me how to sleep so we both can
Me: Just go to your room, close your eyes, and don't open them
Erik: That's it?
Me: Well that's what I do
*5 mins later*
Erik: Gabby
Me: *Moans* What?
Erik: I can't sleep
Me: Why?
Erik: My beds uncomforable
Me: You sleep in a coffin, how is the bed uncomforable?
Erik: Well usually I'm too tired to notice
Me: Fine, you can share my bed
Erik: Are you sure?
Me: Mhmmmm
Erik: Well, I don't really know...
Me: Look, I'm trying to sleep, and I've got no time to argue. So either get in the bed and shut up, or go away
Erik: I just don't know if it's a good idea
Me: I thought we were fake married
Erik: Yes we are dear it's just
Me: I'm going to sleep now, make your choice
Erik: *Gets in the bed* WOW! This matress is REALLY comfortable!
Me: Mhmmm my friends always fall asleep on my bed. I usually get the floor when they sleep over
Erik: Oh, well I'm gonna go to sleep now
*5 more minutes later*
Erik: Gabby
Me: Now what?
Erik: I can't sleep still
Me: Why?
Erik: I forgot Erik Jr.
Me: Well go get him!
Erik: *Runs and gets Erik Jr.* Ok I'm good now
*5 more minutes*
Erik: Gabby
Me: WHAT?
Erik: Why do you sleep with a stuffed bunny?
Me: You woke me up to ask that?
Erik: Well I've been wondering but I kept forgetting til now
Me: It's name is Marshmallow, and I've slept with him since I can remember
Erik: Really?
Me: Yes. He's been worn as you can see, with the twisted whiskers, missing nose, scratched eyes, and messed up fur, but I still like him
Erik: Why'd you tie a red bow on it?
Me: I don't know. He was looking worn after a while, needed something
Erik: Did you ever have any other toys?
Me: I used to have a Phantom of the Opera doll
Erik: What happened to it
Me: I don't know. It disappeared one day
Erik: Ok, well let's sleep now
Me: Good
*About 2 hours later*
Erik: Uh, Gabby
Me: Mhmmm?
Erik: Why are you cuddling me?
Me: I don't know
Erik: Your arm is over me
Me: Yea...
Erik: Well it's 2 in the afternoon
Me: *Opens eyes* That was fast
Erik: I guess it was.
Me: Did you sleep
Erik: Yea. Didn't even know you were up against me til I woke up
Me: I see...
Erik: So, my next question is WHY do you sleep so late?
Me: Eh, it passes the time
Erik: So you only sleep because your bored?
Me: Yep
Erik: ... Interesting
Erik Jr.: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA IS THERE! INSIDE YOUR MIND!
Ok, there's today's chapter. I couldn't really think of anything, but I just got an idea. I might try to convince my parents to go on a trip to New York City since we only live like 3-4 hours away. So, we'll see about taking the Phantom there. But if we DO go the chances of getting to see any shows would be slim. That sucks, but oh well. I just saw Phantom of Broadway 3 months ago!
QUESTION OF THE DAY: Where should I take the Phantom on a field trip, besides your house?
