Night-time adventures

I know that title seems pretty exciting, but alas, this is not that kind of post. (And let's hope I never do that kind of post.)

I seem to be up in the middle of the night a lot lately. Sometimes it's to go to the bathroom, sometimes it's to cough (I seem to only really cough at night--go figure), and the other night it was because I was having some weird pinched nerve in my arm that freaked me out. The fun varies.

Ever since I had the sinus infection, I've been putting a bottle full of water on the window ledge behind me at night. When I wake up coughing, it's nice to have that water handy. Anyway, one night last week, I woke up and coughed a bit. Usually, I end up getting up to go to the bathroom anyway, but this time, I must have been too tired and out of it. I drank a bit of water, still lying down. I remember holding the water bottle in one hand and the cap in the other...

The next thing I knew, my poor husband was jumping up in bed, wondering why his side of the bed was completely soaked. Oops. I must have fallen asleep and slowly, ever so slowly, tipped the bottle over. I still even had the cap in my hand. My husband was forced to sleep on the couch downstairs for the rest of the night and I pulled up the sheets and put towels on the mattress. My side was completely dry, of course. Poor A, he was so confused about the whole thing. :)

Have I stopped putting water on the window ledge? Of course not. I just make sure to fully sit up in bed now when I drink it.
