If that happens, I have a lot more to worry about.
It is five steps from the bed to the bathroom, fifteen to the
first hanging plant in the lounge. Usually when I half-wake up in
the middle of the night, it's for VERY urgent reasons, urgent
enough to occupy every cell of my feeble faculties at that hour.
There's nothing my body wants more than to, well, you know.
By the time I knocked myself unconcious on a hanging plant, I'd
have walked into the open laundry-closet door, tripped over the
fire extinguisher in the hallway, toppled over the bar-stool
while hanging (!) a right into the living-room, burred the table-
cloth off the circular table in the dining area, and electrocuted
myself on the table-lamp-on-the-floor (because I have more lamps
than tables) by the balcony door.
I don't want to go into the balcony - that's two glass doors and
shards in the face.
Of course, all this presupposes that the hanging plants are where
I left them when I went to bed, fully fifteen paces away. Maybe
the screwing and hanging has a secondary purpose - to anchor the
triffids and prevent them attacking me while I sleep.
Also assumes I don't rip open my groin (while swinging out of
bed) on the right-angled corner of the table, right next to my
bed, holding two computers that don't fit into my office.
All in all, you've done a very good job of ensuring that it takes
me a looong time to drop off to sleep tonight.
Thanks. (g!)
