Insomni-OW
“Why,” you might ask, “Are you up at 2 in the morning guzzling sugar wafers?”
Imagine you’re sleeping when the sound of a propeller next to your ear brings you out of nirvana and into that very uncomfortable zone called, “hanging onto your last nerve by a thread.”
That’s the sound of an 82 pound dog scratching.
He’d wandered outside for whatever reason, and then jumped onto my bed and scratch it all off.
Did I mention that my house was built on a sand hill (sans the beach)?
Grains of the D@*#&d stuff were flying all over — into my mouth, my nose…my eyes.
And THEN
Said 82 pound dog lost control of his whomp-whomp-whomp and it turned into a WHAP-SPLAT!
That’s the sound it makes when his leg hits your forehead at 92 miles per hour.
I think the yelling scared him away. I didn’t yell for long, though, thanks to gagging on a ton of sand lodged in my throat.
I had to use one of these on my sandpapered sinuses
followed by two of these
Since I need something in my stomach when I take that stuff, I ate about 10 of these
…or maybe more. Somewhere between gagging, rinsing, sneezing, snorting and using up half a box of tissues, I may have eaten a few dozen…
But I’ll deal with that special kind of sick when it starts giving me hell.
I feel your pain and so sorry for your rough night but that was really funny :O) xx

With all the dogs in our lives, that is one thing that hasn’t happened yet. That being said, I’ll do just about anything for sugar wafers.

Damn dog! Well, at least you picked good biscuits? Chocolate ones would have been better however! Cheers,H

Some adventures are better left to others to write humor pieces about. Hope you don’t have to wake up like that one day. 🙂

Ugh! Insomnia is bad enough without a dog making everything so much worse!

There are some gifts that are better left outside the house, and sand is one of them. 🙂

He was just bringing presents/ showing love. Just kidding. No pets allowed in the bedroom. It would drive me bonkers.

My mom was like that — and the dog was always put outside at night so she couldn’t sleep on the beds. I just can’t seem to treat my puppies and kitties as “pets.” They’re family. 🙂

Sometimes our pets feel the need to test our love for them. But this puppy really took it to the max.

LOL! He never knows where his feet are going to land. All the cats scatter when he comes running in.
