Walking With Your Eyes Closed!

I sensed, rather than felt, my wife get out of bed and head for the bathroom.  (The Tempur-Pedic commercials are correct – motion is NOT transmitted.)  In the time it took her to traverse the 3 paces from her side of the bed to the bathroom door, I’d drifted back down into that soft & snuggly almost-sleep.  Her yelp yanked me very rudely, back up to the surface of consciousness.
 
In one long flowing word, she cried, “Iiiieeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaa…FRIG!”  “What’s the matter, honey?” I offered.  “I stubbed my damn toe!”  When I asked how she did that, she replied, “You know how you walk with your eyes closed ‘cause you don’t want to wake up?”
