Aaron's bedtime prayer: when work and sleep collide
Proof that my husband is over worked and under paid...
At about 11pm last night, I woke Aaron up from what i call a "TV induced coma" and told him it was time to say prayers and come to bed. His reply was, "ok, you say the prayer." and then he rolled over on the sofa and went back to sleep with his arms folded reverently. I woke him up again and said, "no way...if I pray, then you'll just sleep until i wake you up to say amen. YOU should say it, because then you'll stay awake." He agreed, sat up and began to pray.
After about 2 sentences, I noticed his words getting farther apart. His prayer then continued on as follows:
Aaron: "...and we are so grateful...to be members... (many sleep-like deep breaths)...in this new season...at Sam's Club."
at this point I open my eyes to see Aaron slouching deeper into the sofa again...now snuggled up on a pillow. I almost wake him up but then the prayer continued:
Aaron: "we ask thee.... bless the chicken...in this new season....in the clubs...help the new chicken ...(more sleepy breaths)...products...please bless us...to have good profit margins...we are thankful for the profit margins. ...and for the chicken."
He went on for 2 more minutes, blessing the chicken, Dan (his boss), the high profit margins and expressing sincere gratitude for our Sam's Club membership.
We'll find out soon how the new chicken products did.
