It was dark and cozy under the sheets. I'm a side sleeper and I was flipping over when I heard an enthusiastic voice next to me ask, "Guess what?"
Guess what? Um it's 3am, that's what. I don't know! Why are you making me guess something in the middle of the night!? Seriously, what could I possibly need to know right now? And how am I supposed to guess it without any pretext?
Now might be a good time to tell you that my husband is a sleep-talker. He has said a wide variety of things in his sleep. These include: "Golf!" and "adopt a baby" (during my pregnancy). So, it occured to me that he might be sleeping. But what if he wasn't? He was pretty articulate....
About ten seconds passed since the original question was asked, so I answered, "What?" And then I wait.
And I wait.
And I wait. No answer. Nada. He's out cold. (How does he do that!?) He was totally asleep! And I felt a little dumb and a little silly for answering. But it does make you want to try it out, doesn't it? Just to mess with your partner a little bit...
