Mfter Foily

Who is Mr. Foily you may ask... I had to ask myself that same question about 1 week ago. It all started while watching Glory Road on our couch, Johanna nicely snuggled up to me. The movie was gripping and heart tugging, but Johanna couldn't tell you any of that for she was fast asleep. As the basketball team played and pushed through hard times, the exact things were happening in this little wife-of-mines mind. The film came to a close, and I reach for the remote. SUDDENLY! Johanna jumps up in her seat! "Mfter Foily, Mfter Foily!" ..... I of course reply "What?!?" Johanna quickly replies "If da mofie ofer?" I look down to see half a blanket stuffed in Johanna's mouth. I can't help but laugh, I reach down and remove the blanket from her mouth... Then she looks at me, cocks her head like a puzzled crow and says, "What about Mr. Foily?" Those of you who have seen the movie know there is no Mr. Foily in anything related at all to the show. What a good laugh! HA!

Oh but there's more

Three nights ago I had some late night work on the computer. The time thunderously ticked 12:23 am on the digital clock. With out warning Johanna springs from the bed, grabs all the blankets and stands stunned at the side of the bed. "What are you doing?!?" I ask. She replies, "I'm gonna sleep on the floor..." "Are you sure you want too?" In anger, "Yes it's what I want, gosh!" This is followed by about half an hour of uncomfortable trashing on our hard wood floor. Finally there is but the sound the chattering keys and a nose whistle of Johanna sleeping away. Somehow through her twisting and turning in her sleep she managed to put her head half under the bed. The clock ticks 3:32am, THUMP! "uhhhh" then silence. Nothing could be heard but the whispering laughter of me at the keyboard. Another half hour goes by and finally the grumpy Johanna awakens from her disjointed slumber with only confusion and a unexplained bump on her head.
