-Sean has very interesting sleeping habits... Those of you who know him well know about some of them. Even I knew about SOME of them before we got married... He is now on a sleeping pill called Ambien. Very interesting drug... It makes you extremely loopy and very uninhibited. He talks in his sleep, can't stop talking before he falls asleep, and doesn't remember anything the next morning... His brother is also on the same medication and when we were in Washington a month ago they stayed up until 2:00 in the morning having a heart to heart ending in a brotherly hug. His brother's wife and I are witnesses since neither one of them seem to remember...
He is also always hot and decided that he can't sleep when he is hot. BUT he likes to be wrapped up like a burrito as well. So, he refuses to share blankets. He has to have his, and I get mine. When we lived in our apartment and didn't have a ceiling fan he had to sleep wrapped up in his blanket with his feet sticking out hanging over the edge of the bed with a fan on the floor tilted upward blowing directly on his feet. Now, we've advanced slightly and have a ceiling fan that blows down on his feet but everything else is still pretty much the same... See below... And, just in case you are wondering this is year round, even in the winter....
-Sean is also obsessed with flashlights. In any given room you will find at least 1 if not 2 or 3 flashlights. Any time he sees them on sale at a store he sneeks them into the cart and I conveniently sneak them right back out.
-His family has a habit of using a towel once and then it is considered dirty. Apparently this is considered normal by some....
- He likes to try to scare me any way possible and get a reation out of me. Details to follow...
a. left a vacuum on sitting in the middle of the room. I finally came in to find out what was going on and he was no where to be found, yet the vacuum was just sitting there running... Creepy. I went to turn it off and he jumped out from behind me and grabbed me. This is the only time he has succeeded in getting an audible scream out of me...
b. After we were first married I came home from work one night and when I walked into our apartment all I could see were Sean's legs sprawled out on the floor like he had collapsed. I happened to be on the phone with my sister at the time and when I panicked and told her I had to go, I heard supressed giggles coming from the kitchen floor where he lay...
I think you get the point...
But, on the other hand, he treats me like a princess and I love him dearly... Last Monday I had a really bad headache and finally thought of something that sounded good for dinner. His chicken ramen noodles. He makes them the best. He is an amazing cook but out of everything I could have asked for that's what stood out. I barely had to ask and he was busy waiting on me. This was the result of his endeavors...
