(after closing a conversational subject)
Me: (sitting by him on the bed) Ok, you should go to sleep now.
P: (laying in bed) But I'm not tired anymore, I'm going to watch TV in the living room.
Me: Just go to sleep, I want to read a book in the living room.
P: But I'm not tired.
Me: Stay still for 5 minutes and I promise you'll fall asleep.
P: I'm not sleepy.
I decided I was too sleepy for book reading, so I got off his side of the bed, walked to my side, took my glasses off, and laid down.
Time elapsed: 10 seconds.
By the time I fluffed my pillows and turned off the light, I looked over and P was 110% asleep. Mr-I'm-Not-Tired took all of 10 seconds to slip into a coma. He asked me the next morning how long I had been out reading in the living room because he hadn't felt me "come back to bed".
