Funny noise from my past

Just a few minutes ago, I was walking by Andrew and Brendan's room, and I heard a funny noise that made me laugh. It reminded my of when I was a kid.

Did you ever make the "popcorn" noise when you were a kid? Basically, you make an "uh" sound and slowly add a staccato to make it sound like popcorn popping. You use just the slightest force of air and a deep voice to make the sound. I used to make this sound sometimes when I couldn't sleep just to entertain myself.

Andrew was also making the noise because he couldn't sleep. I heard Brendan and Andrew giggling afterwards, and then each of them would try to repeat the silly noise. I just found it funny and felt that is was worth mentioning for the nostalgia factor. Some things never change!

I don't think I remember that... you must have been awfully quiet across the hall for me to miss it!

I did this too! I always likened it to a radioactivity detector. What a fun connection between you and Andrew.
