I have a bad memory, (Darlene says I have CRS – Can’t Remember Stuff), I often make notes to myself. This sometimes occurs during the night when I get an idea or remember that I need to do something the next day. So I keep a pad and pencil close to the bed to write things down. The next morning I woke up to find several messages I had written during the night. Because I was writing in the middle of the night, in the dark, I read the first message which my brain interpreted as “Get Monkey”. I was half asleep as my brain slowly started to “kick in”. My first thought was, “Where am I going to get a monkey?” Then I went on to “How much do monkeys cost?”, followed by “What do monkeys eat? Where will it sleep?” Finally, as I started to come out of my “sleep fog” I re-read the message as “Get Money” – Ahhh yes, that makes more sense.
