The Most Annoying Sound In The World

is SNORING.

When Elise wakes up between 3 and 5am for her middle of the night feeding.  I sit up, lay her on a pillow and nurse her with my head in my hands and my eyes barely cracked open because I am SO. TIRED.  I haven't slept all night in about a year, ya know?  While I'm doing this, I am listening to the incessant, obnoxious sound of my husband gasping for air.  How he sleeps through that still remains a mystery to me.  Since I think this is quite possibly the most annoying sound on this planet I occasionally "poke" him with my toe.  He says I'm "cattle prodding" him, but that's not true.  I try to be very sympathetic to the fact that he has to get up and go to work in the morning so unless the snoring is incredibly unbearable, I'll just give him a look of disgust while he's sawing logs and I'm.... not.  He can't see it anyway.

What makes the snoring worse?  Is when I have to get up in the morning and he doesn't.  So, I'm sitting in the bed, feeding our child, wishing I could be sleeping as good as him, and getting mad at the clock because I have to wake up in 4 hours.  If I have to be awake he does too!  He was sleeping peacefully...and snoring when I tapped him on the shoulder.  He woke up, looked at me, and mumbled "huh?"  I said "oh, nevermind."
