The One Where Dood Gets Sleep Slapped

I'll tell you the moral of this story right away so there will never be any confusion:

Never ever ever ever wake someone up to piss them off.

It's bad for everyone involved. The person who did the waking, the wakee, and the poor unfortunate Dood who gets his covers yanked off of him, yelled at, and slapped on his leg for drinking three THREE juice boxes.

Exhibit Q-Z0503
And didn't even discard the evidence!!

So I'm minding my own business, five minutes from REM sleep and the hubby push taps me (you know how someone taps you so hard it moves you back like a shove....yeah that's the right word shove.) Rewind. So I'm minding my own business, five minutes from REM sleep and the hubby shoves me to tell me that Dood devoured not one, not two, but THREE juice boxes!!!

This little booger didn't ask for juice, didn't drink just one, and didn't even throw the empty boxes away!! More importantly, I was sleep. In my sleepy stupor I slid out the bed, stammered to his bedroom where his Daddy had already tucked him safely away and scolded the kid with one eye open and a slap.

By the time I got back to my own bed I had to recount what I did just so I could understand what I just did!!! Then I prayed Lawd please don't let the sugar keep this kid up all night and Lawd if you're listening, because I know you're busy, please oh please don't let this kid wet the bed. Amen.

You know this reminds me of the time where the hubby & I were on vacation and I was thoroughly enjoying the hotel's black out curtains and the time delay and sleeping in waaaayyy past my normal. This man woke me up because he was hungry!!!! I repeat, HE was hungry. Next thing I remember I was in a buffet, still shaking from the abruptness of it all. The worse part? We get back to our room and he takes a nap!!!!!

I think I need to re-write my wedding vows to include: I promise to never ever ever ever wake you up for my own benefit...unless of course it benefits you too.

Don't you just hate when someone wakes you up for no logical reason? Don't people know that no good will come of it?

  8. I'm guilty of this WAY more than my husband. If anything I hate when he doesn't wake me up when he knows I would want him to. I will wake him up whenever I can't find something I'm sure he's moved and I need it -- like now. He's usually useless the first five minutes after I've done this and then angry the next five. I usually never get a good answer (or the correct one) to whatever I'm asking, so maybe I should consider cutting it out. HA! I'm going to ask him if he'd like to rewrite that into his vows.

    That being said, it would be nice if he slept a little less. I like to say, "I wouldn't have had to wake you up for help if you weren't constantly napping!!!"

  10. Both of us are seriously cranky mofos if dare to wake us up so we never wake the other up. It's bad enough the cat comes in every morning and paws at our noses. I imagine it'll be much worse when we have a kid. Haha.

  11. My ex used to wake me up for stupid stuff all the time and  would have the nerve to catch an attitude with me when I woke up angry at him for waking me up for stupid stuff. Lol it pissed me off all the time. I think I'm going to write this in my vows when I get married.

  15. This is too funny! My mom and sis always called me "Oscar the Grouch" because they'd wake me up and wonder why I had an attitude. Sorry I got in at 3am and don't want to talk with you at 7am. I should have woke them up when I got in to see how they liked that hmph!

  16. I turn grumpy too, when I'm sleep-deprived. I stock on natural sleep aids to get me through the night.
