A Good Way To Put A Banshee To Bed

fun fact: despite popular belief, a banshee can take on a male form from time to time

1. Announce that bedtime is near and watch a display of intense energy and noise flow throughout the house.

2. Chase the banshee down and lovingly force pajamas onto it's flailing body (older banshies must dress themselves)

3. A banshee must have a hot press on his or her face to wash off the day's muck. (they like muck, but they like the warm wet cloth better)

4. Certain banshees need promises of more bedtime stories if they brush their teeth. (if they do not comply, a supervisor will lovingly commence force brushing- this is not ideal or pleasant but sometimes necessary)

5. Make sure to water your begging banshees now, because your chances at skipping this step are slim to none

6. Read to the banshees. This can include a calming longish story, but if it must include an exciting adventure be prepared to re-tame wild banshees.

7. Sing. (this step is entirely optional but can have tremendous soothing affects on certain restless banshees)

8. Pray. Pray to make it through the next day alive, and be sure to be thankful for the joy the banshees bring.

9. Kiss the banshees, switch off the lights and hope for the best knowing full and well your job might not be through.

10. Repeat every night until banshees realize sleep is not the enemy.

Good luck.

and goodnight.
