I have heard, gentle humans, that sleepologists will tell you that it is important to get a good night’s rest every day. This good advice is unfortunately ignored by dad, who usually gets only about 5 or 6 hours sleep a night.
He should take lessons from me, the Sleep Expert.
I love to sleep. I can sleep anywhere, anytime. Sometimes I like to rest my head on the furniture. It might take a while to find a comfortable pose, but I can do it.
Other times I just sleep on my back in the middle of the floor. I will often do this while my people are sitting at the computer, either playing solitaire or getting frustrated that the internet is so slow.
Those things don’t bother me. I only worry about them rolling over my ears with their chair while I sleep. That would not be pleasant. Luckily, so far it hasn’t happened.
One has to learn to sleep in all conditions. For example, if it is hot, then sleeping by a nice fan is very effective. Ahhh, feel that nice, cool breeze.
Or, if you are outside, it is always a wonderful experience to lie on the soft lawn. Listen to the birds in the sky, and the earthworms in the ground … those can easily put me to sleep.
But most important of all, it always helps to have a stuffed toy to sleep with. Here I am, when I was much younger, sleeping with my toy fox. Isn’t he cute? I loved sleeping with that fox …. that is, until I tore it to shreds. Oh well.
Adorable!
Dad definitely needs to learn how to sleep from you, Bailey. He doesn’t get enough sleep during the week!
