don't let your spouse drink and sleep

So the other night I woke up grabbed my water bottle and took a sip. It was a restless night of tossing and turning and not being able to fall asleep. I always have 2 water bottles next to my bed, because I get so thirsty at night. Well this night after I took my sip I layed there with my bottle upright on my stomach just being annoyed that I was awake, and thinking about who knows what, when all of a sudden I had cold water all over me. I had somehow fallen asleep while holding my open water bottle and it slipped out of my hand and got all over me. I was shocked and wet, and I was trying to make a bunch of noise so Russ would wake up and feel bad for me. Alas, Russ is a very heavy sleeper, so I didn't get the sympathy I didn't deserve. I wiped up what I could, moved the blankets so the wet part wasn't on me, and tried to go back to sleep. Moral of the story, don't lay in bed in the middle of the night with an open water bottle.

That story was hilarious! I'm sorry that it happened to you, but it just sounds like something I would have done!

Too funny! It's maybe a good thing Russ didn't wake up. He might not have bought your story. I can see it now "No, Russ, I SWEAR it's water from my water bottle" "Suuuure, it is Honey"

You are such a dork Lacey. That is the funniest story. I would have done the same thing to try to wake Mike up and have him feel bad for me as well. Isn't it strange how your brain just doesn't work quite right in the middle of the night?

Classic Lace..
First of all I can't believe you drink 2 water bottles at night!! And second, I can't believe Russ didn't wake up. I can roll over without Mike waking up

Even if I do wakeup, it's only for a second and I'm back to sleep. We both get a little grouchy if the other one wakes us up.
