Get a damn mouth guard

So the hubby and I have been on this ISSUE for a while now; and when I say 'while', I mean, ever since we got married, while. Yes, it has been that long *shrugs*

S has a problem when he sleeps. He grinds his darn teeth pretty loudly and it gets on my nerves because he doesn't even know he's doing it. He doesn't hear himself, while I on the other hand, I hear him loud and clear.

It never really bothered me before, as long as I'm asleep before him, I'll be fine because I'm a heavy sleeper. But if he knocks out before I do, then he can be sure that he'd be falling off the bed sometime in the middle of the night.
Lately, I've been having some trouble sleeping, so I wake up to every little squeaky noise. Totally the opposite from before and it's very annoying.

So last week Thursday, we got into it again;

Me - You really need to get a damn mouth guard. You're getting on my nerves

S - What for?

Me- So I don't have to hear you grind your frickin teeth at night.

S - Well then get earplugs *laughing at me*

Me - HELL NO! You're the one with the problem, so you need to fix it

S - I don't have a problem. You're the one with the problem. YOU CAN'T SLEEP

Me - that's because you keep grinding your TEETH dammit

S- yeah, but I can sleep properly, YOU CAN'T

Me - and that's because of YOU.

S - I think you need to get sleeping pills huney.

ME- F* NO! (screaming now) you get a F**n mouthguard

S- I don't want no lumpy thing in my mouth while I sleep. It SUCKs

Me- I dont give a shit, just get IT

S - ok ok I will..

Me- and get it fast or you'll be sleeping on the couch

S - Fine.

Me - Fine


The next night, there was still no mouth guard.
Of course he was grinding his teeth so I literally kicked him OFF the bed.
He got up and climbed rite back in saying "Sorry hunney"
It took me a while to get back to sleep and when I did, he started grinding his teeth again. aarrrrgggghhh..
I slapped him rite on his mouth and he quickly sat up (I think he was mad..lol)

Me - You need to go sleep on the couch. I work tomorrow and I need to sleep.

S - Eh
*scratching his head and gathering his pillows*

The next day, which was Saturday, S was off to town to find a mouth guard. He came back with nothing. He said he went to all the stores and they don't sell mouth guards. This is all Bullshit I tell ya, because I know for sure that WalMart sells them.

ANyways, last night, I knocked out after Desperate Housewives and Brother's and Sisters while S was camping on Craigslist looking for some good deals.

I got up at around 2:30am for a bathroom run and lo and behold, S was not in bed. I checked the next room to see if he was playing playstation; NOPE, no one there. SO I called him, and he answered with a sleepy voice;

S- "yeah"
Me- Where are you?
S - sleeping on the couch
Me- WHY?
S- so you can get a good sleep
.

as much as I wanted to jump for joy and say "Alleluiah AMen";
I told him that it was Ok and that he can come back up and sleep in the bed. (you see mom, I'm not a wicked witch from west) But he better get that mouth guard TODAY

Oi that's too funny but good for you for laying the law down :). I remember when I was preggers, the whole nine months my hubby slept either on the couch or the floor coz he takes up too much of the bed and snored too much..lol.. Hope you are getting enough sleep though sis!
