On Tuesday night around 3am I was awakened by the sounds of Mike scruffling out from under the bed.
"What are you doing?" I asked groggily.
"Oh I was just under the bed." (in a nonchalant tone)
"Oh. Okay," I said, and fell right back into REM mode.
For some reason, Mike being under the bed made perfect sense to me at 3am. Not so much at 9am, when I recalled it.
Turns out he was, yes, as you see, stowing his rifle under the bed. An AR-15 semi automatic ASSAULT RIFLE. Poor Mike heard some bug or something hit the window and was freaked out and searched the entire house and couldn't sleep for 3 hours. Suffice it to say that I am enmeshed in a drama with someone who makes Mark Hacking's double life seem a tame one.
And if I can't post pictures of a RIFLE UNDER MY BED and laugh about the absurdity, I will cry. I am firmly
clinging to laughter as a coping mechanism!
It'll make a great story. Someday.

Cry stal, Cry stal, Cry Stal (get it?) OMG this is one of the funniest stories. I can't belive you just went back to sleep. I'm the biggest chicken ever. At least you should feel safe knowing he hears things and wakes up to protect you and your kiddies. My DH could sleep through a tornado and never have a clue. lol
I'm amazed you dare sleep with that under your bed. Or in your house for that matter. I'm so glad there are no guns in my house.
That is sortof funny that it didn't phase you at 3:00 that he was under the bed. That'd probably be how I'd react too.
Pretty funny story....
Guns under the bed.... Did you wake up thinking: did that really happen, did he really say he was under the bed getting a gun?
OUrs are locked in the gun cabnet near the bed.
Yeah, no biggie, I sleep with one under my pillow. j/k
Unlike my dear sister 2 comments above me I cannot say that there are no guns at my house. Never fear sister dear, they are safely locked up in a safe. Although under the bed sounds....good?....too!
Crystal--I know why you really want that handy! Too bad they're not reading your blog right now! Maybe they'd run.
I think I would have fallen back to sleep too. I need sleep. One time I slept throught the fire alarm!
Is this the best you can do for a Jerry Springer show. I want to hear real Jerry Springer stuff! Like my letter to Wendi! You missed our mud wrestling over her spying on my blog. The lurker.
Wow, hang a picture of that thing out front of your house & I don't think anyone will be disturbing you. Funny story,thanks for sharing! Missed you at pilates :)
Oh girlie your husband is not the only one with some type of gun in the house. Colby is ready at any moment to protect us from what ever might be out their. I love your blogs they make me want to blog!
