My grandma and me used to nod off, while we were waiting for the midnight showing of some Dracula movie, back in Memphis, Tennessee in the 70's. (My grandpa would do this with me too.)
I'd look over at her, and her head would droop lower and lower, until her head hit her chest, and wake her up. If I mentioned that she was sleeping, or if I laughed at her, she'd get mad, and maybe go to bed. I didn't want that to happen (scary movie) so I'd have to pretend that it didn't happen.
We had a good time though, and I got to watch some great monster movies that were rarely on daytime tv. Remember, this is way before movie rental stores, and I don't think I'd even seen cable yet. Television was basically a foraging sport.
Point? I don't have one, besides the fact that I'm really tired writing this, and nearly nodding off myself.
