What Will Mary Say Next?

So Suzanne and I...ya know, we've been livin' together for quite sometime now. We pretty much know all about each other by now. We're planning on living together again next year! That will make 3 solid years together by the time next year is done. Anyways, by now, you should know, that it is very well discussed between the two of us how much I like to talk in my sleep. It seems like every other morning Suzanne walks into the bathroom while I'm getting ready and says to me with sleepy eyes and messy hair, "You were talking in your sleep again last night" and then she proceeds to tell me what I said. My sleep talking has gotten pretty out of control if you ask me. Most of the time I just talk in jiberish, but occasionally I say something that sounds pretty coherent and Suzanne has to think twice before she realizes that I really am sleep talking and not awake talking. Usually when I say something, it's only a few words at a time. Like I've been found to say things like "Peeeee" or "Becky" or "Birthdays, birthdays, birthdays, birthdays". These things don't make any sense!!! Who knows what message am I trying to get across or even if I am trying to get a message across?! If only I had some kind of sleep talking decoder maybe I could figure out what messages are flying through my head as I sleep. Anyways, a few nights ago this is what Suzanne tells me I had to say. Restfully I move around in my sleep and in a very mumbled tone I say, "You're the top tops". Suzanne proceeds to ask me what I said because she couldn't totally understand. So I sit up in my sleep and say, "I just think you're the top" and then I lay back down. Man, those are wise words...wise words! Suzanne was really appreciative about what I said though. I think I touched her with my kind words. I really hope that my sleep talking doesn't get as bad as to me starting to spill the beans now...like my true feelings on love!!! Because heaven forbid if any of my roommates find out that I really do have a crush on George Bailey from "It's a Wonderful Life" or Bert from "Mary Poppins"! Oops! Did I just say that out loud. So I guess what I'm trying to do now is pose the question "what other weird things will Mary say next"???

I'll bet you anything that your next sleep talking will go something like this...." boy I sure do love my mom and miss her tons!!!!" :)
PS( we are in St George right now but won't have time to come up to Provo this trip as it will be a quick one. But we will see you in April!!! yippppeeeeee!

Mary said...

What are you in St. George for??

Oh Mary, that was a good one, I must say. I wonder if this sleep talking thing runs in the family because I'm sure all of our roommates/spouses could tell some pretty amusing stories. I'm just so proud that you are so uplifting in your sleep speech. I think that really says a lot about Mary, the builder. So here's to many more constructive sleep speeches! P.S. I think that YOU are tops!

That made me smile. You are so darling Mary. Suzanne is one lucky girl to be your roommate three years in a row. You build her up even while you sleep. :)
You and Liza seriously are some of the most talkative sleepers I know.

I think this sleep talking thing runs in the family. Zach talks almost every night in his sleep.
