Bread rolls

ROFL Jeez I love you guys. ha Reminds me so much of the random conversations my husband and I have. He's as wonderfully weird as I am. Kindred weirdness. LOL

My other half talks in his sleep sometimes. Once, between snores, he suddenly shouted “Fuck that lizard!” and mumbled/grumbled. I snorted with laughter. He had no recollection of his dream in the morning. Now when he talks in his sleep I ask him if it’s the lizard. Sometimes he will huff indignantly in response.

Reading this reminded me of the things an ex-partner of mine used to say in the night. I wish I could remember any of them clearly enough to tell a good story about it. I love hearing your Neil stories.

My partner once woke me up by trying to scale the built in bookshelf over my bed. On my questioning what the hell they were doing, they woke up, startled, naked, clinging to the bookshelf, and stated “there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for this...there was a car coming”. Then jumped down and covered their head with the blankets.
