Kentucky Fried Chicken! Winged Fighters!


A couple nights ago I woke bolt upright at 3 AM. I tried counting sheep, I stretched out, I drank some warm milk, I read for a while but I couldn't feel the least bit sleepy. Around 4:30 I asked Aaron if he would keep me company. (It was a Saturday morning.) He rolled over and mumbled an agreement. I asked him to tell me a story thinking that might help me get back to sleep.

He started out "Once upon a time there was a beautiful princess named Katy." Aaron paused, mumbled then said "and she had to go to war. There was a war and she had to fight but that was okay because she was really strong and the German troops were coming down but that's what being an athlete is. Mumble mumble. Kentucky Fried Chicken! Winged Fighters!" And then he was out again. I think it's the best story he's ever told.
