Snoring

posted Thursday, 3 November 2005

Snoring. We all hate it and few of us admit to doing it.

I have to admit that I sometimes snore, especially if I'm sick or overtired, but I am in no way a champion, major-league sawer of logs. I could never even begin to compete with my father when it comes to sheer snoring power.

I remember as a kid, seeing a Flintstones episode where Fred snored so badly that his snores kept sucking the bedroom door shut, then blowing it open again. I saw this and thought, "That's my Dad!" If my father had slept facing a door, I'd not have been surprised if he could have done that as well.

After supper every night, he'd conk out in the easy chair while watching TV and his snores nearly brought up snow on the TV! When he went to bed, it was even worse. He could be in his bedroom with the door shut, I could be in mine with my door shut, both of us have fans going in our rooms and I could still hear him. Even with a pillow clamped over my head, the sound got through.

I don't know how my mother put up with it all those years. Which brings me to an inevitable corollary to Murphy's Law: The Snorer Always Falls Asleep First. I've had this to happen to me too many times to believe differently. And for any of you who think nice girls don't snore, you're full of shit. They can and they do. And they always fall asleep first!

Let's hear some of your snoring stories.

After the snorer falls asleep first, the other person gets angry enough to want to take a pillow and end the snoring forever! By adjusting the position of the snorer's head, I mean. The hardest part is the waiting- waiting for the next snore to rip when they stop because they always restart just when you've relaxed.

Both my parents snored, so of course "the snorer always fals asleep first" was true I guess--whoever fell asleep first would be snoring while the other couldn't sleep!

Each one, despite all evidence, insisted that he/she did not but that the other did.

I've been told that I snore, but it's never bothered me a bit.

Many a night has spent in the spare bedroom or on the couch due to the snoring bear that always falls asleep before me.

My dad snores and has talked in his sleep. Whenever it got irritating we would just say, "Daddy, stop it/shut up" and he would. It was pretty cool.

I don't snore (apparently) unless I am extremely pissed. I do regularly talk in my sleep, however. I could never do anything dodgy or keep a secret... I'd get found out straight away ;-) ha

I was sitting in my car the other day in a car park when I heard this terrible sound like someone was being strangled. I investigated, and in a car a few spaces away I found an elderly lady fast asleep with her mouth wide open and saliva running down her chin. Not a pretty sight.

I will admit I snore, so yes good girls snore! (If you count me as a good girl) My husband also snores. Even my dogs snore! A few weeks ago we heard this growling noise coming from our garage (it is attached to the house). When I went out to investigate all I found was my giant old St Bernard sound asleep and snoring louder then I had ever heard a human snore. It was so funny I had to have my husband come out and hear it. The title of the loudest snorer in our house now belongs to the St Bernard. I don’t mind my husband snoring. At least I know he is alive. I worry when he isn’t snoring!

I've heard myself snoring as I suddenly woke up!

My cats sometimes snore like sailors!
