Naptime with Teens

I had one of those nights last night and just needed a little nap.


I was checking out the interesting characters over at People of Walmart and couldn't leave. I don't know what it is, but once you start looking at the freak show there you just want to keep looking to see how bad it gets.  I finally was able to get to sleep a little after one and slept great until my hearing, that was once described as so sensitive that I can hear a pin drop in Indiana, picked up the tell-tale sounds of Mandi taking a shower in the bathroom below me. She had to be at a football breakfast and wanted to get up early so that she could dry and style her hair.  Unfortunately for little me, she kept dropping things and I kept waking each time.  Eventually Mandi had to wake me when I hit "snooze" way more times than the alarm clock likes.  Don't blame me. Blame the People of Walmart. 




Advance to this afternoon, India and Andrew were sitting on my bed - building a city on the computer. I laid down and the next thing I knew, I was sound asleep. After a while Johannes called and then I tried to get back to sleep.  This is when it got weird.  India sat on the floor by me, took my hand and used it like I was a puppet while she and Andrew carried on bizarre conversations in several different accents.  All the while India continued to use my hand as if I was gesturing with it while I spoke.  This went on for about half an hour.  The last thing I remember I was laughing...
