Who Has To Endure a Snoring Mate?

Postby daphne » Wed Dec 28, 2005 3:12 am

Savage and I are currently comparing notes on how we abuse the snorers in our lives. She says a Kleenex box, and I've admitted to slight beatings and denying them. My mom used to smack my dad with her nails and leave marks.

Now that we have an antique bed in the office, I will grab my mink blankey (my wubby) and trudge up to the office where the 75 gallon fish tank is (I am used to the little water fall by my side of the bed) and pull out the tiny fan that sits behind the headboard on the windowsill and sleep there. But, before we had the bed set up, I was "in for the long haul" with "Hominus snoralotus" and hated it.

So, I was just wondering, how many of you all sleep with a snorer? Anyone? And, if you do, are you inclined to push or tweak or attempt to roll over the offending party?
RIP Frederick

I'll cop to it. The large proboscis and overgrown adenoids (and I'm sure the numerous nightcaps don't help) do wonders for my slumber, but make for a difficult night's sleep for others, I'm sure. The wife is a saint for putting up with me (though I have woken up some mornings with unexplained bruises and pains.)

"Mink blankey"?!?

Mink blanket. Just another DOD perk. :roll:

For the snoring, I prefer administering pain that he will not remember in the morning. I am the Queen of de Nile.

My mom's nickname is Cleopatra as well, har har


And Martini, yes, a "mink blanket". It's this ultra-warm thang. It's super fibers on one side, all short and minkey (but animal-free) and on the other side, the fibers are longer and soft. The amount of air this thing traps for warmth is amazing. I love it to death. Over hear they go for 40 to 50 dollars, but on ebay they are a bit cheaper. In Korea, they are anywhere from 15 to 25 dolla'h.

Mine is a king or queen size. It's stoopid huge and steel grey. When I'm trashed and hubby is snoring, I have to pick the whole heavy thing up carefully so I don't step on it and fall down the steps.

He goes to Japan in 3 weeks, where there are more mink blankeys. I am telling him to please bring a slightly smaller grey one back so I can leave it up here and further lessen my possibility of ankle injury.

I had to edit for spelling because I'm past the point of no return.....
RIP Frederick

Oh, how I do so want to go back to Gate 2 Street for a while, and buy myself another blanky.

Hubby's gone is three weeks. Put your order in now....................
I'll just have to not beat him (snore) until then.

Rough. If I were you, I'd want to beat him like a meringue-destined egg white.

Bad, bad, bad. Get back to your cage.

Hehehehe. I just looked down, and lo and behold, it's a monogrammed silver platter.

These are Savage's initials.

Jesus.

I sleep with a snorer and wow does he pack a punch as he's also a violent sleeper. I solved everything by keeping a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire under the bed. I get woken up, he gets a whack.

I snore on occasion, but usually only when my sinuses are plugged (spring and fall), It's not so bad that I wake up with bruises though ;)

Same with Sarge! I thought for sure he'd post about what an obnoxious snorer I am . . . but its not like we snorers can do anything about it, ya know! Sarge is forced to sleep with ear plugs, which our dog will eat if he forgets to put them away. Yuck!
