Sleep Showering? Really!
Okay, so here I am in the back mudroom entry smoking a cigarette, it's 12:45 in the a.m. It's peaceful and quiet while I am in thought about who knows what when my son startles me by opening the door. I turn and he's standing there with his towel and clothes in his hands wearing a goofy look.
"Dad."
"Yes"
"I just slept walked a shower."
"Ummm, what?"
"I just took a shower in my sleep."
"Are you sure you actually took a shower?"
"Feel my hair, it's all wet, my towel is wet and..."
I rub his head. Yep it's wet alright no doubt about it. So I mess with him.
"Are you sure your not dreaming now talking to me about taking a sleep walking shower?"
Puzzled look on his face. "No Dad, I'm awake now."
"Oh. Well when did you realize it?"
"When I came into your room and you weren't in bed. I looked at the clock then thought, why is my hair wet and I'm standing here holding my clothes and towel."
"Strange. You've slept walked before but never a shower."
"I'm going back to bed. Holy shit!"
"Good nite."

bwahahahaha! That was awesome. It's stuff like that, that makes life a wonderous thing. A good moment for sure. That was a moment that had so many things going for it I can take the time to list them.
thanks for the laugh...and the rest of it.
A precious moment to remember. My nephew, 7 years, sleep walks. We have to board up stairs at night when sleeps over. He likes to walk like a soldier when he is in that trance and he doesn't remember a thing the next day.
Sleep shower is a new one on me. Interesting and precious moment
