OK,so maybe it hasn't happened to you yet but it has to
me. At least once during the night I have to make a little trip to
the bathroom. I've told you more than you wanted to know already haven't
I?
Well there is another part of this story. Since
our little dachshund, Harley, hurt his back we don't let him sleep in our
bed in fear that he may jump off. He sleeps in his kennel beside
our bed. Each night before we go to bed, Sandy pulls the kennel from
the living room to the bed room. The kennel is on my side of the
bed and there is just enough room for me to walk by.
A few nights ago I went to bed early and after I was asleep
Sandy pulled Harley's kennel into the bed room. For some unknown
reason she placed the kennel at the end of the bed instead of beside the
bed.
You guessed it. At three AM I get out of bed and
head for the bathroom. I am careful not to hit the kennel that I
think is beside my bed. I turn at the end of the bed and run slap
into the kennel. Harley is a small dog but this is no little kennel.
You could put a Great Dane in this thing. I hit the kennel in the pitch
dark and you would have thought I was wrestling an iron octopus. The damn
thing wouldn't let go of me.
Finally after Harley, Sandy and half of the neighborhood
is awake I escape from the clutches of this maze of wire. Still completely
in the dark and dioriented and somehow still asleep, I turned left into
what I must have thought was the bath room. I opened the door and turned
on the light, walked in and shut the door behind me. I heard Sandy yell
" What are you doing?" Thank goodness she yelled because I now realized
that I was standing in our closet about to do a very bad thing. What
would have made it so bad was the fact that I was on her side of the closet.

The moral of this story is. See what happens when a woman rearranges
the furniture.
