Sleepless nights - and not in a good way!

Now. I'm very lucky indeed. I have managed to find not only one, but two good men who have decided that they'll spend the rest of their lives with me. Granted, the first one didn't last too long, but hubby no. 2 seems to be holding in there just fine!

Hubby no. 2 loves me very much and I love him very much, which comes in handy when you're married! Each night before we go to sleep is the time we'll lie in bed and chat about the day - what annoyed us, what amused us - you know, general chit-chat. Usually it will end up with us both in fits of laughter at something that happened to the other, or some stupid thing we said to put our feet in the proverbial....

Lately, the hubby has taken to singing to me in a very silly but amusing (to me) strangely falsetto voice. Since he speaks with a very deep voice, it is something to behold. I think he takes his inspiration from Peter Sellers in one of the Pink Panther films, where, at the end of the movie, he is singing "Come to me" in a bad French accent with lots of vibrato. You know, going for the clumsly lover routine! He does this, you'll be glad to know, not to woo me but to make me laugh! He succeeds.

Well, he succeeded until last night! The song he has been singing of late is Liberty X's "Just a little" which starts with the line "Sexy. Everything about you so sexy". Imagine in a falsetto voice with vibrato and you might start to get the picture! Now, after the laughter died down we said goodnight and I began to say my personal prayer. Guess what song kept going through my mind? You got it in one! Imagine trying to have a serious conversation with Heavenly Father and having that song go round and round in your head!!

All night!!! Could I sleep? Could I heck as like! I last looked at the clock approaching 2am for the third night in a row! I'm sleep deprived and have nothing to show for it!!! Grrr....
