So last night I walked down the hall and looked in her room. I found the bed empty. I look around on the floor (which was filled with clothes and other crap--she needs to clean her room)
I didn't find her.
So I walked out to the living room to see if she was there instead. It was very dark, and I ended up slamming into the coffee table. We had some empty soda cans sitting there, and they went clanging to the ground.
I cursed under my breath, then made my way towards the kitchen so I could turn on the light. I kicked a fan we had sitting there and jammed my toes into the metal vents. That felt good.
But I got the light turned on at least. And I found my daughter sleeping on the couch. I had no idea why, but I figured I'd leave her there. So I turned off the light, carefully tried to avoid the fan and the coffee table.
Instead I misjudged the corner and ran into the entertainment center. I knocked a bunch of shit down onto my head. I cursed again and wondered if my house was booby trapped.
I made a ton of racket, swearing included, yet my daughter never woke up. It must be nice to sleep like that.
I trudged back to bed, slightly beat up and totally awake at this point. I couldn't get back to sleep for awhile. My head started filling with stressful things that don't let me sleep.
Plus my eye was twitching. It's been twitching since yesterday afternoon. It's driving me insane.
Finally I did get back to sleep though. And in the morning I found out that my daughter had a fly in her bedroom. That's why she was sleeping on the couch.
So essentially a fly ruined a perfectly good nights sleep for me.
How'd you sleep last night? Does anyone else get up in the middle of the night to check things out, or is that just me?
