Adventures of the Griswalds

Father-In-Law Edition

*************************************

So anyways, I was playing H2 last night (shocker I know!), and since Drost and Malice were not on for our regular team practice, I decided to call it quits early and get some sleep.

Now, my in-laws sleep in the 3rd bedroom, with the door open, and both of them snore... no big deal, but you can hear them from where I play my video games from.  The guest bathroom is right next to their bedroom, and the little one's room is on the other side of the bathroom.  They leave the light on in the guest bathroom because they are older, and need to use the bathroom at night.

Anyways, I shut down my gaming center, and hear the snoring for the first time, as I now longer have my headphones on.  I don't think anything of it, and I do some quick browsing on my computer.  I finish, and shut down the computer for the night...

I get up and head for my bedroom, when, I notice that the father-in-law is on the toilet in the guest bedroom.  The door was wide open and in full view of my path to my bedroom.  It really doesn't bother me, because 1) he's a man, and 2) it's pitch black in the rest of the house.

I was about to ignore it, and go to bed when something made me take a 2nd look.  Father-in-law was on the pot, and bent over his legs, head down.  I stop, and watch for a couple of seconds, when I realize, he's snoring.

WTF?  He fell asleep dropping the kids off at the pool.  Holy shit.

I went into my bedroom and woke up my wife.  "Go wake him up" she said.  The fuck?  I'm not going into the toilet and shaking him awake!

Instead, I go and stop outside the door, and start yelling his name.  After 3-4 times, he finally wakes up and a nice line of drool comes out of his mouth.

I go back to my bedroom and lay down and read my book.  The wife asks me to check on him in a bit.  So, after 20 minutes or so, I go and check on him.

He's asleep again.  On the pot.  WTF?  This time, it only took me saying his name once to wake him up.

I go back to bed again, intending to sleep.  However, the little one yells out, and I get up and go and check on her.  I lay down with her for about 10-15 minutes, and get her back to sleep.

As I'm heading back to bed, I check the bathroom one last time.  OMGWTFBBQ!?!?!?!  He's asleep again.  On the pot again.  Snoring.  This is over an hour from the first time I found him asleep.

I wake him up again, and then go to bed.

After the 3rd time, I had no intention of checking on him anymore, since, it seems he was more comfortable on the shitter.

When I got up this morning, I had to check just to see, but, he wasn't on.  Thank God.

Bizarre.
