Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 16, 2014

Mom and Dad enjoyed their motel stays much more before they became Mom and Dad.

Tigers…and other “stuffed” animals…breathe for their children…why, Calvin would ask, would anyone believe any different?! ;)

He misses the soft fur and belly of Hobbes!

My cat visits me for 10 minutes when I’m in bed and then goes to another part of my home. Unfortunately, when she sleeps in my bed, her tail (she’s part Persian) is always in my face.

I’ve heard people say they “get used” to a snoring spouse and “don’t hear it anymore”. It’s been 32 years, and I still haven’t got used to it.

Earplugs saved my marriage, and possibly my husband’s life (sleep deprivation can make you psychotic).

And who ever said that women do not snore?

Used to live on a long upgrade where the sound of trucks shifting was pretty well constant. When we moved out to the country, I had trouble sleeping with all the quiet.

POOR DAD!!

You can probably drive a few trucks through that open mouth.

I snore so load that the neighbors(on the next street) complain. I know wifey snores, but since I fall asleep first, it doesn’t bother me. She is so conditioned to sleeping when I snore, that if she is driving and I fall to sleep, she starts to drift off. Danger, danger, Will Robinson!

Miss you so much Hobbes..

When hubby was working long hours I tell him to go to bed hour or two early and I stay in living room and read until the noise stopped. Might be 10:30pm or 11pm. We did not have extra bedroom I so wished we did so I could have extra bed to go to sleep in. We moved after retirement have extra room but too small main computer all my books in this small room and hubby who decided at 62 to retire starts snoring I still come to living room to read. We now have high traffic so no window in bedroom open at night. Place we used to be at small town could have windows open.

Dad might have sleep-apnea. He should look into that (see a doctor).

This is funny; my mom snores like that not my dad

Not only do I snore, but it resonates in my sinuses which are about the size of Carlsbad Caverns. They don’t measure my snores in decibels; they use the Richter scale. My wife has visions of the cat hanging onto the curtains to keep from getting sucked in.

Those sinuses also lead to very loud sneezes. I can set off most car alarms at 50 paces.

Another reason why I’m glad I have my own bedroom and my own bed!

I can’t sleep in the same room with anybody who snores.

Snoring sounds more like a snorting pig.

Snoring is that bad wow.
