It's a sort of pre-trip ritual, like you PM'ing your cell phone number to me so we can contact you when we get there. Or me sending you a Life360 pm message, which we could do if you signed up for Life360 and used the code which has since expired. So I just list PM'd you a fresh code that gives you six more days to load the app and use the code.
In either case, we could get up with you, and you'd know where we were, just by looking. Or not, as the case may be.
Part of the delicious fun is MM waiting for the eventual rubber alligators, worms and snakes to show up when least expected. He's already thinking about it and planning his counter pranks.
But I am a true sadist and
will never really do anything to him, so he is going to be a frustrated anticipator. His proactive counter pranks are fun, though, and he feels justified since I teased him about it first.
Just the thought of a small vaseline coated rubber fishing worm being found curled up inside his ear when he wakes up is a good enough chuckle for me ..... (mostly)
...... them real ones like to burrow, and that ain't funny at all .......
