A few posts back (Yes, that’s how I keep track of time… it’s sick, I know), I asked for help naming our two new turkeys. Laws-a-mercy are y’all creative!

Yes, folks, you saw it here first. They do it, too. Why can’t we stand to be the only ones wide awake? Why must we perch and hover over our sleeping parent/spouse/sibling/friend, then innocently stretch or scratch or wriggle until they are awake? Why? Why? Why?
