Last night the boyfriend thought it would be funny to hide the laptop on his side of the bed and once I was drifting of to sleep to play a track of ghost/haunting sounds. There were however a couple flaws with his brilliant plan:
1) I sleep so close to the air conditioner I'm practically inside the thing and since its like the cheapest one available it similar to having a jet liner taking off in the room. Anyway, so when he starts playing his spooky sounds I can barely hear them and I don't know they are supposed to be spooky. It sounded like one of the neighbors watching tv.
2) I can be a pretty awful person when I'm tired. I don't go around kicking puppies or anything ,but, I certainly could be considered less than pleasant. So, when he keeps asking me over and over again if I "hear that" I start to get more and more annoyed. I am more than happy to ignore it and go back to sleep.
That makes for a pretty lame prank, so, he needs to kick it up a notch. Now he is so frightened that he is plastered up against me, faking a panic attack too afraid to move. I get up, turn off the air conditioner and look out the window. Of course I don't see anything, however, now I can hear the noises. I walk over turn on the light and dingbat decides this is a good time to pass out from fright and start laughing because it was all a big, hilarious rouse.
I tell him he's not funny and I'm going back to bed. Now he wants to discuss the joke and how scared he made me. When I tell him not at all he starts talking about Freddy Krueger and singing that creepy song in a child's voice. I tell him to stop because NOW I'm freaked out and will not be able to go back to sleep. Or turn off the light.
