Youre Sleeeeppppiiinnnngggg

I have a problem. Well, I think I do. It's not a very big problem. But it's somehow a pretty persistent problem. The person about whom this problem is doesn't think it is a problem. But that's what he thinks. To me, it's a problem. I think. (Therefore I am. Yeah!)

Everytime this person calls me, (let's call him D, only because his name starts with the letter), I somehow manage to lull him to sleep. Now, is that something worth being known for? Is that even good? Putting someone to sleep on the phone? Is that desirable? Would any of you want that ability?

It starts off pretty okay. We talk about normal stuff, how has your day been, how has your life been, how are my boyfriends, how are his girlfriends, etc. etc. Then somewhere around the half an hour mark, there's one tiny stiffled yawn. And then a minute later there's another... and slowly it gets to the point where there are these silences to my jokes, to my questions, to my existence on the other end of the phone! I tell him, matter-of-fact, that he's falling asleep. He denies it (as if it's the first time it's happening.) I persist. He acknowledges that he might be a tiny bit sleepy. Tiny bit my @... Then he says, wait - hear this, takes the cake - he says that it's actually very nice that I put him to sleep. That he feels so comfortable in my presence that he can relax and fall asleep.

Sheesh! What am I? A massage? Comfortable indeed. Who wants to be comfortable? Comfortable is totally the opposite of interesting, funny, shocking, vibrant! Do I even want to be comfortable? No! NO! I don't. Anyone out there who's willing to work with D and me to make me not so comfortable to him? (Hehehe... I somehow like how that last sentence came out.)

But then... maybe... perhaps this is not so bad after all. Putting people to sleep has to have some advantages, right? I think I should try a career in hypnosis... those suggestion-induced slumbers where you can almost play God. And then I'd hypnotise D and... mwahahahaha.
