My Embarrassing Confession.
A few days ago, I was on the phone with a friend and somehow dozed off. Not nice, I know! But I was super exhausted.
And it’s not even a new thing: I once fell asleep on a date in college (what can I say? It happened to be a busy time, I was studying for exams, and it turned out I had to retake calculus twice – but I digress). After I had my son and began engaging in the act of working motherhood, let’s just say things only got more extreme.
Last week, having done lots of late nights of researching, movie-watching and general house cleaning. I went to church with my husband and son. We danced, prayed, settled down for some serious preaching and had a great time with the Lord. That was the plan, anyway. By the time I woke up several minutes later, my husband had packed up our things. It was time for grace. “Time to go home,” he said sympathetically.
Other times, I wake on my couch in pitch black darkness, my husband having turned off the lights.
Oh well, I have myself to blame. But I know I’m not the only one with such embarrassing stories. Most of my working-mom friends have similar stories. One in particular had even slept off during sex!
Anyway, that’s my embarrassing confession. Your turn! What have you fallen asleep in the middle of? Tell me in the comments below.
