“He’s asleep and snoring in his recliner,” mom quietly told me a moment ago when I called after 9pm to get the skinny on the situation.
Mom has been really sick with a bad cold and sounded so much better today.
“Has he had a few glasses of wine?” I asked my mother trepiditiously.
“Yes,” she said. “It makes him very sleepy when he’s had a few glasses.”
“Well shit,” I replied as my hopes plummeted. “Wake him up, but make it seem like you are doing him a favor.”
My mother chuckled nervously with a hushed voice. “I don’t know how to do that!”
