World Domination is so much easier.
Sleep training an infant is asking a non-verbal being who hates sleeping to lay down and, without assistance, go to sleep.
Sleeping is easy...getting their isn't.
You can only nurse, cuddle, rock, bounce, singing, walk, wear and snuggle the baby for so long. Eventually, as every piece of literature on the subject states, you will have to put the baby down. The baby needs to learn to sleep without you...
The crying begins.
The crying continues.
One of you will give in.
Then you have to start the process all over again, because you didn't do it right the night before when you gave in.
Somewhere along the way coffee gets involved.
You'll be exhausted and you'll misspell words and sleep deprivation isn't one of them.
In fact, they're the only two words you haven't misspelled since the ordeal began.
World domination on the other hand, involves invading, blowing things up and then sleeping, like a person without a baby, until the next round of battles.
Sure it can be stressful.Telling millions of people what to do everyday is a lot of work, but then you have underlings to do the enforcing.
They stay up and listen to the crying.
They sip coffee and explain that "No, you can't have this land back." to invaded peoples.
Everyone can verbally understand each other.
Everyone knows what to expect when their invaded.
You expect a fight. You fight. Finally, someone loses and you go to sleep.
I think I'm going to try conquering the world...after I get my baby to take a nap.
And the battle for sleep domination begins again.
