My husband laughs at me a lot because I do this thing where I wake up... but I don't really wake up... and in my head everything that I say makes a lot of sense. So I try to talk to him, or answer a question he asked me... or I dunno just talk for whatever reason. So when he starts laughing at me becuase I am being an idiot I get legitamatly angry.
When I am groggy like that I feel like he is misunderstanding me on purpose.
That is EXACTLY how it felt to wake up after being put under today. I remember being asleep but it was like sleeping on an airplane... where you are asleep but it isn't good sleep and you feel like the TV is on really loud and so you aren't really asleep asleep... and then when they got me up they kept asking me questions and it was taking a really long time to understand the question and even longer to explain my answer....
Until it occured to me that my mouth was full of cotton... no wonder I couldn't talk.
Wait, where am I? Oh yeah! Teeth... or something. Hey my arm feels funny when I lift it up like a chiken wing, and when I look to the left I can see three or four identical nurses... and I am super cold, so why do I have three blankets on? Why does the nurse keep asking me if I am ready to leave. Can't she see that I can't even focus on her? Wait.. this is weird... but I feel like you told me something about an ice pack... where to I put that? Oh.. right... my jaw. That makes sense. Ice Cream!
I do that same thing!! Or sometimes Chris will ask me to do something when I am not quite awake and I agree to it, and then later he will ask me if I did it and I don't even remember him asking me anything.
ReplyDeleteThat happens to me ALL THE TIME! I am so glad you understand! Zach will be all upset that I "forgot" to do whatever he asked. I will say " well, was I awake?" and he will be all " you sat up with your eyes oPen and talked to me" and I am like...."what"?

ReplyDeleteYeah - just because I said "Okay" doesn't mean I was actually listening when it is 6:30 a.m....
