i no its weird but my family would sleep like that too: me dad mom bro all in one bed.. when i was younger that is... now i'm too big for that stuff..lol
powercuts i guess happens.. not a big deal, really! i mean i live in the usa and it happens but we don't have a generator or anything because it is not that often..
and the long hair.. well, i don't tie my hair or anything up either.. and neither does my mom and her hair is LONG!
and like everyone said for nighty... how awkward would that be.. i won't wear my gown in front of my brother and ur talking about a guy she refuses to acknowledge as a husband!!
