...and to all a good night.

My dad has many pre-bedtime rituals. One of them includes announcing:

Dad: "I'm going to lay myself flat."

I've never heard anyone else say this, nor do I know why he feels the need to state it this way -- but he's never varied the phrase. It's never: "I'm gonna curl myself up in a ball" or "Hit the sheets." Nope. It's ALWAYS "I'm going to lay myself flat."

Ponderous.

    Love this! I knew a guy who always used to say "I'm going toes-up."
