so when i get up, shut up

[susandennis]

When you live alone and work alone, there is stuff you never think about and no one ever knows so they can't tell you... Like making noise when you get up. I do it all the time. I never thought about it. The cats have never made a single comment.

But my brother did. I thought it was funny but didn't think much about it.

And then tonight, I learned it was a real thing.

I was watching Better with You which is a really cute situation comedy that I'm pretty sure no one watches but me...

They had this whole bit about making noise when you get up or sit down or get into bed ... and clearly labeled it as something you should NOT do.

I think I've been doing it so long that I can't not do it now. I can try but I am not hopeful. I just had no idea it was a thing.
