"She'd talk me to sleep most nights, her voice going on and on about this and about that..."
"I talked you to sleep again last night."
She'd say in the morning light, as if I'd forgotten about the night before. Which of course I had.
"Yes, I know dear, you did it again..."
"And do you remember a word I said...?!"
"Of course not dear, I was on the edge of sleep..."
"Then why do I bother talking to you...?"
"Talk to me when I'm awake dear, and not half asleep..."
