Thinking back on all the years I spent at the Wallace household, up into the early hours of Saturday and Sunday morning, I am floored by Geoff's patience and ability to sleep so deeply! There is no way either of my parents would ever have put up with all the shenanigans Katie and Ian and I got into. One memory in particular stands out.
We had been partying all night, per usual. I must have fallen asleep on the couch in the living room. Geoff got up at some point to use the restroom and, while his bed was left unattended, I commandeered it in my drunken stupor. Poor Geoff came to get back in bed and found a drunken Goldilocks had taken his spot! He tried to wake me to make me get up and go back to the couch, but said I just keep giggling and NOT moving. Well, that was that. Being too nice and patient and compassionate, Geoff was just up for the day at that point and I was left to sleep it off.
