My favorite Tanya story concerns the first time I took her up to see my parents. We'd had a most satisfactory visit, and came back to Lafayette about 11pm. I had not been with Tanya long, and I didn't realized the shortness of her bedtime fuze.
We came into town, and we were both hungry, so we decided to stop at Payless to get dinner. Entering the store, we split to buy this and that. I got most of my items, and saw Tanya in the frozen food isle, looking into a cooler. I went and got the remainder of my items and returned to the end of the isle to find her still looking into the cooler. I went to the book isle and looked at a book and a magazine and came back to find her still looking. I came towards her and asked her "What're you looking at?". No answer.
I got close enough, and noticed that her eyes we closed and she was snoring softly, having fallen asleep standing up and holding onto the cooler handle. I had to gently detach her hand, and walk her out of the store...
