Rude Awakening

Friday morning I had a rude awakening...and only 15 minutes before my alarm went off. How annoying, seeing as there was no way I'd be able to go back to sleep for 15 minutes with the adrenaline pumping.
Here's how it went. 5:30am, Duane starts talking in his sleep. "Uuggghhh, I totally just bashed my fingers in that! Ow!" Then he proceeds to move around a bit, then BAM!! He broke our bed. Ok, so he didn't BREAK the whole bed....he just snapped a rung off our headboard. He barely touched it! I swear that guy has super-human strength when he's asleep. There was no way I would have been able to break it. At that point he sort of realized what happened, and he said, "shoot I just broke the bed". I wasn't sure if he was alert or whether he was still sleep talking, so I touched his shoulder and told him he just busted the bed. He told me he knew, and then easily fell back asleep. ARG. He had the day off, so he could just forget about it and go back to sleep, whereas I'm just freaking out, worrying that he was going to turn around and stab me with the broken rung if I stayed in the bed....in his sleep, of course! That may sound a bit morbid, but Duane has done some weird things in his sleep, so I never know WHAT he's dreaming about or what he's going to do! In the end, I just laid there until my alarm went off and then got up. I didn't even get to hit my snooze 3 times like I usually do...there was just no point. I was already awake. Annoyingly so. I probably didn't even need my morning coffee because I was so awake. But, of course, I DID have my coffee...it's part of my routine!

Alright...so here's proof. It looks much less freaky than during the actual event....because, really, a picture is a picture(I'm surprised he only broke one!) We should've reenacted it and recorded that! Haa haa.



Maybe I should just break the same one off my side so it's symmetrical. Or not.
