<\/a><\/p>\nOn beach weekend, this was my hidey hole. The house has a few of these rooms with tiny doors that lead to little nook-and-cranny spaces. As a near-midget, sleeping in this hidey hole provided me with a few tactical advantages. First, it’s strategically located between two bathrooms, availability of which are limited given the sheer number of people in the house. Second, being a closed-off space, it is warmer, darker, and quieter than other spaces in the house, which is also important, given the sheer number of people in the house and how generally bear-like I am at six in the morning. Third, it affords a number of opportunities to leap out and grab ankles to scare the bejezus out of some poor unsuspecting girl, who will no longer need to use the bathroom because her bladder is no longer full.<\/p>\n
