The Chronicles of Sleep

I fell asleep early Sunday night, even before Anna returned home from work. I fell asleep reading, The Magician's Nephew. I finished the chapter following Polly and Digory into the In Between Forest, a place of transition. There was something about the CS Lewis magic of worldy transport that invaded into my personal rest. I fell asleep on the right side of the bed, where the reading lamp is located. I noticed Anna crawl into bed during the night on the left side of the bed. When I woke up, I was on the left side of the bed and she was on the right. She claims I gradually pushed her off the bed with my migratory sleeping habits, but I think Lewis had something to do with this...

Spennie - it sounds like you're a pretty exciting sleeper--punching Anna in the face, migrating to her side of the bed. Sammie regularly crosses the "line of demarcation" but accuses me just as much of stealing the covers. He now sleeps with his own comforter (and yes, it's made out of Star Wars material). We're hoping to solve some of the slumber difficulties with a king size bed as soon as we get to Austin.

Thanks for the awesome birthday card and the cds!!!!! I love them!!!!
