Kick, Punch, It’s All In The Mind

(It is late at night and, as usual, I have gone to bed before my husband. I am usually a very sound sleeper, so I am not disturbed when he gets into bed later. This night, however, I am restless. I have finally drifted to sleep when I feel someone hit me in the side.)

Me: “Did you just punch me?!”

Husband: “Yes.”

Me: “Why?!”

Husband: “You were snoring.”

Me: “I was trying to sleep!”

(It turned out he regularly punched or kicked me during the night if I was snoring too loudly. This was the first time I’d ever been aware of it!)
