When my sister and I were little, we took the expression "Go to sleep" literally. We thought that when we would go to bed, the bed would become a car and take us to a place called sleep. I remember we laid awake one night talking about what it was like when our bed would take us there and what it would be like. I believe we had a water bed at the time, and when you rolled over, it moved. It was cool.
