Funny things you dream

I often wonder why I wake up so happy, ready to start the day. When I was younger I had hit the alarm, for the fourth time, grumble out of bed and stomp around with a cat with great acid. Are now before the alarm clock most mornings, and I'm not complaining, not every time that I used for the same. They are often anxious to see what the day will bring.

I think I've stumbled upon the reason for my getting up early and my cheerful perspective. My wife. Yes, enlightens my day and gave me tremendous motivation, though she still sleeps later than me, and she tends to complain, but not too bad.

There is another reason, and this also involves my wife. I believe that laughter is the best medicine, and she makes me laugh. More so, I think a happy attitude is contagious, and the reason I wake up happy might be this: my wife laughs in his sleep.

I'm not kidding. She laughs loudly. So strong that I am often woken at night by her laughter. Sometimes it begins as a chuckle, but many times the laughter just erupts, as it has just seen the funniest thing in the world. How can I help but be amused and feel happy when they are treated to this many nights out a week.

There's more ... while still asleep, she says that she laughed about. Here are the latest accounts ...

One evening she collapsed and began her laugh. I wake up, and wait for her to stabilize. Then I wonder "What's so funny?"

I was not expecting an answer, but to my surprise he answered while still sound asleep. He said "Mrs. Juniper said the juniper would not grow much taller than two feet, but she has planted and the damn thing off, and is still growing! Ha ha ha ha ...." Then he began to snore again.

I shook my head, turned and settled in for the rest of the night, knowing that we both get a kick out of the story when I called the next day. We did.

The most recent episode was even better, stranger. This time it seemed that I was already awake before she started laughing, giggling before and perhaps it was that shook me. In both cases, when he stopped his laughter, I decided to see if he would speak again.

I asked "Okay, what's so funny this time?"

His response was classic. A truly original rambling by a sleeping brain. She said "Orville Redenbacher plan would not fly so they were trying to hang Orville Redenbacher floor is above the bed from a string. ...." Ha ha ha ha then conked out.

Again I shook my head, rolled over and anticipated the break of day when I would share the story of his sleeping brain with her alert brain. I could not wait to see her reaction.

I ask you, being a natural marvel, capable of great intellect, not the human brain to think better? The mechanisms of the dormant gray matter puzzled me.

Why ride in my sleep, I do not know, but I'm glad he does. I am happily married, and I assure you, that will never change!

I can not wait for more its unique cane-la-la land. Can there be more? I keep you posted. Heck, if I collect enough maybe I'll write a book!

That's all for now. In my Funny Little universe, I wish you well.

Over and out.
