Pillow Talk
 |
| Damn, I had a thing for Doris! |
Returning on a several hours trip from the wake of a family friend, my wife had Sirius Radio
tuned to the seventies channel. A song
came on, “Pillow Talk.”
“I’ll bet you’ve never heard this song.”
“Of course not, you know I had three
children all under ten in the seventies I missed that whole decade and most of
the eighties!”
“Do you know what pillow talk is?”
“I know what it is in our house.”
“What?”
"Let’s see, how about:"
“What?”
“Very funny, turn it down.”
Then later.
“Why did you change the channel?”
“What? You were asleep, I don’t want to watch “Family
Feud” I want to catch up on “Wicked Tuna.”
“I Can’t sleep to “Wicked Tuna”, it
wakes me up!”
“So, I have to watch a show I don’t like
so you can sleep because my show wakes you up?”
“Yes.”
“That’s crazy, and how do you go from
sound asleep to wide awake just because I change the channel to my show?”
“I like the background noise from ‘Family
Feud.’ ‘Wicked Tuna’ has too much excitement,
it wakes me up...JERK”
“OMG!! OK, I’ll watch “Family Feud.”
Pillow
Talk! How the hell did they make a song
about that in the eighties?
From The Urban
Dictionary:
Pillow Talk can be any variety of things. It can be before or after
being intimate, or without that at all. The point of pillow talk,
though, is for two people to enjoy each other's presence through conversation,
in a somewhat spontaneous way, but in a way that will let both parties go to
bed with clear heads.
OH! That pillow talk.

Now you know why we don't have a television in our bedroom. You two crack me up.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day. ♪♫♪♫
Hahahaha. That whole waking up out of a dead sleep because the channel has been changed... I'm pretty sure everyone in my family does that. We could be in a coma but if someone changes that channel we're wide awake!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if that would work in hospitals?
DeleteWTH is Wicked Tuna?
ReplyDeleteWatching t.v. (or your computer screen) right before calling it a day is alleged to keep one awake at night.
ReplyDeleteWho knew Mrs. C had such tender sleep-ears! I can sleep through any show when I'm sitting in my OPC (Old People Chair) with the heater thing turned on.
ReplyDeletePillow talk here usually involves hubby tucking the covers/sheets so I don't steal them from him in the middle of the night and me telling him to give ma little more of them so I can turn around then he can have the covers back. Not sure why he's so protective of them because waking up in the middle of the night he's on top of them anyway because it is sooooo hot here, even with the air conditioning running.
ReplyDeletebetty
And this is why there has never been a television in my bedroom, or any bedroom in any house I've lived in.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know there was a song called Pillow Talk, I knew about the movie and I was sad to hear Doris Day had recently died at 97 after getting pneumonia.
Three children under 10 in the 70s? I had three under 4...fun times.
Heeheehee! Pillow talk here is mostly telling the doggone cats to move over, they are bed hogs.
ReplyDeleteTV was and still is a no-no on the belief that bedrooms are for sleeping in||
ReplyDeletePillow talk is OK as long as one is not talking in one's sleep!
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
you right i never heard this one ,must be interesting though ,not more than your post though :)
ReplyDeletewhen we live kids (10 to 18) specially
it is quite a task to find time or space for FAVORITE THINGS
If I remember correctly, Doris and Rock's version was much more romantic but yours is funnier. Still waiting for the Cranky and Mrs. TV reality show. I'd watch.
ReplyDeleteThere's pillow talk and pillow arguing...who knew????
ReplyDeleteIn this house, pillow talk is usually about if "Friends" or "Seinfeld" or "Fraser" should be on for falling asleep.
