Manuscript is complete. April is reading it for the first time.

Pajamas
I woke to someone tapping my shoulder. I opened my eyes and blinked in the darkness. April must have come to bed, I thought. I felt the bed shaking underneath me. Is she laughing? I wondered.
April leaned over my shoulder and whispered in my ear, trying hard to get out a few words between her fits of laughter and gasps for breath.
“Why…are you…wearing…my pajamas?” she asked, and then erupted again with laughter.
My eyes had adjusted to the light enough by that point that when I looked down I could see that I was indeed wearing a women’s tank top with spaghetti straps. It was not very flattering. Unfortunately, I have a habit of doing strange things in my sleep.
“I got cold with the fan on,” I said angrily and buried my head in my pillow. I closed my eyes and went to sleep again with April next to me still shaking the bed with her laughter.

Thanks for the laugh, Kelly…I really needed that! But, you're not alone in our family. I'm sure Grandma could tell you some stories.

Oh my God! My student wearing a woman´s pijama! At least you did not go out to the supermarket to buy bread for breakfast!

Thank you for being so real that you didn't leave that out just because you are the end of the joke!
Tell April to take a picture next time, LOL!
