Flashback Friday: Take 1

So in the spirit of Instagram's "Throwback Thursday", I bring you a new blog series called "Flashback Friday" (or did you already guess the title??)! I loved reading my old blog so much that I am going to try to post an old blog post from way-back-when each Friday. Woo hoo! Let's get started!

This is a post from January 20, 2009 - two days and four years before little Maleah was born (surprisingly enough I didn't post anything on January 22 from 2007 to 2010...). My dad had been gone for two and a half years at this point and I would randomly recollect little snippets of memories with him. After being in a coma for two months, my dad woke up to a world he didn't belong in. You see, he had all sorts of interesting dreams while he was sleeping. And he was completely convinced they were real. This post was a reminder of some of the hysterical things he said:

"While You Were Sleeping..."

After my dad was in a coma in 2000, he woke up telling some really funny stories from dreams he had while he was sleeping…. Apparently at one time I wrote them down intending to make some goofy song for my dad. I never really put it all together, but when I read this… I laughed. These are things he really said! I just had to share.

while you were sleeping

you made some funny faces

but nothing could prepare us

  

do you know who i am?

i’m a mexican movie star

  

i’m really quite thirsty

from eating all these sandwiches

could you please attend to me

and get me out of this mess

 

i’m tired of being in this bed

i’d like to get up and walk around

so please go to the nurses station

and grab me another gown

 

 

i’ve been alseep for far too long

… and apparently, I jotted this down, too:

we don’t argue anymore

about monday night television

an agreement was made

that for one night, we’d make revisions

 

and every monday night

of every week

we watch super stars

like undertaker get beat

 

wrestling

wrestling

how could you be so fun?

wrestling

wrestling

i used to think you were dumb

but now i look forward to your program

dad and i really love the ring

 

I love silly memories like these!!
