Random Obsessions About Me

We tried getting rid of Tyler’s forehead lines before taking pictures.
He swears he’s stuck with them forever.

- I cannot go to bed unless the door is closed & locked and the closet has to be closed. If it’s not closed I’m going to wake up in the middle of the night screaming thinking that there is someone in closet and force Tyler out of bed to close it. Fortunately he never remembers doing this the next day.

- The window blinds has to be faced down because I would rather have stalkers, robbers, or serial killers get on a ladder to look down through the blinds than easily look up. Sometimes I have Tyler go outside to assure me he can’t see through them.

- I cannot wake up the first time the alarm goes off. I’ll set the alarm an hour before I have to wake up and reset it every 5-10 minutes and then I’ll finally get up! This drives Tyler crazy!

- I have long hair so that means it takes longer to dry my hair. After I shower & put make up on I always crawl back in bed and sleep for 10 more minutes to air dry my hair a little bit before I blow dry it.

- My current food obsession is a fried egg sandwich! I love the yolk!

Do you have any obsessions that are random?

The Boogeyman

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

I’m thinking about getting a security alarm installed in our new house.

I’m always waking up in the middle of the night thinking that there’s a boogeyman in the room ready to attack me. I always make Tyler get out of bed to check the entire place to make sure the boogeyman doesn’t exist.

The same exact thing happens with my Mom and even one time she thought my Dad was the boogeyman and ran around the house while my Dad was chasing her to get her to calm down. I’m so glad that has not happened with me and Tyler.

I wonder if this happens to me because when growing up I knew my parents could hear everything even hear me turning the pages while reading Nancy Drew books. I knew I was safe in their hands. With Tyler, he’s hard of hearing and cannot hear a thing at night because he’s heavily sleeping and snoring!

Maybe I need to stop reading the news about all these bad things happening.

Another Night Episode of Tyler

While I was comfortably sleeping and dreaming of the breeze, Summer and my dream home. . . Tyler did it again in the middle of the night. I woke up to see that Tyler wasn’t in bed. I had to pry my eyes open to see what time it was. 3:45AM! I get up and find Tyler wrapped in his towel and playing a few games on the computer. I asked him if he knew what time it was and he said he was getting ready for work. I had the biggest WTF look on my face and told him it was three : forty five AM in the morning. He stood there and gave me his “confused in the middle of the night” look then said, “Wow… I’m really tired”

How can 3:45AM look like 6:00AM? If I had not woke up I wonder how much longer it was going to be until he realized what time it was. I love coming home from work and asking him if he remember what happened the night before and he tells me, “I know! I did it again!” before I can even finish my question. Haha!

Now I’m off to bed and hoping that tonight won’t be #3487.
