Awkward Conversations

Conversation Topic of the day: What's your sleep posture?

My husband just gave me the worst start. He tends to sleep lying on his back. Sometimes he clasps his hands on his chest, looking for all the world like a co**se. I tell you, when you don't realize he's napping and find him abruptly in the chair like that, you can't help but be a little put off.

Do you think there's something he's not telling me? He does tend to prefer a somewhat nocturnal life.... O.o

Ever have a really awesome conversation with a stranger? I do it all the time. The most unusual ones always seemed to happen on trains with me.

In one instance I was able to talk to a young man who worked out at the National Parks doing maintenance and other very necessary jobs. He said he'd put in for transfer about every two months to a different park. He'd worked so far at about 9 parks and had the goal of someday being able to say he'd worked at every single one. How cool is that?
