Thought Process
Last night I received a phone call about an hour after I had gone to bed. Though I was happy to get the call and ended up having an important and meaningful conversation, it took me a long time to figure out just what the hell was going on. This is the thought process that occurred after I realized I was no longer asleep… more or less.
What was that noise?
Where am I?
Why is it so dark?
What’s going on?
There’s that noise again
Did I go to bed?
Should I be getting ready for work?
No, it’s too dark
That noise is my phone
What time is it?
Where is my phone?
My phone is on the nightstand
Where is the nightstand?
Okay, found the nightstand and my phone
Oh no, it’s plugged in
How do I unplug it?
Got it
Who would be calling me?
Quick, wake up and act like I wasn’t sleeping
I was kind of out of it, so I probably sounded like an idiot for most of the conversation. But that's alright, it wasn't the first time I've sounded that way and it certainly won't be the last.
Comments
I used to get in these conversations when I was half asleep. Half of me was saying "This is totally making sense" and the other half was saying "What did that idiot just say?"
Funny stuff.

I had one of those conversations the other day, I was saying all the right words, just in the wrong order. I had no luck when i hoped that the other person didn't hear me. All i could say was "yeah i don't know what that was".
