Story 1
\nI woke up at 2 a.m. to drink water. The TV was on. I heard my daughter asking, \u201cDaddy, can you get me a blanket?\u201d Half-asleep, I took one and tossed it on the couch. As I returned to bed, it hit me\u2026 my daughter was at a sleepover.<\/p>\n
I ran back and froze when I saw the couch empty. Then, all of a sudden, I heard a loud voice coming from the TV, confirming it was indeed on. I rushed to the bedroom and woke my wife to tell her what had just happened. She reminded me that our daughter was definitely at a sleepover\u2014and then mentioned she\u2019d forgotten to turn off the TV.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s when it all made sense. I\u2019d been so groggy that I mistook a line from the movie playing on the TV for my daughter\u2019s voice. The whole thing had just been my sleepy brain mixing things up, but the memory of that night still gives me chills.<\/p>\n
