Corwin has acquired a severe phobia about the noises that Charles makes. At first we just had problems at the dinner table. But lately Corwin has been finding all of the the noise of Charles obnoxious. The new problem is that in the morning we can find Corwin either sleeping on the floor in our room or down on the couch. This is because he woke up during the night and couldn’t deal with being in the same room with a snoring Charles.
This evening Mom and Corwin went out to see Joshua Bell and didn’t get home until late. Charles had fallen asleep on the couch with me and was snoring. As soon as Corwin got home he asked “can you move Charles to another room?”. Corwin wanted Charles moved because the couch is in front of the TV and Corwin preferred to have Charles relocated rather than flee to another, TV-less room. Mom intervened by telling Corwin that it was way past his bedtime. Corwin, for once, didn’t give Mom any grief over this, presumably because that meant he could escape Charles.
P.S. Be sure to send Mom e-mail asking her to post about the concert.
