Pajamafied

Monday nights after dinner and baths we packed up the car with pajamified kids and drove from the country to the city, where for the next forty-eight hours I kept to a madly condensed schedule of meetings, interviews, and feeble attempts at writing.

So Tom left Grey Arthur staring indignantly at the game, willing the cards to behave, and he wandered downstairs, pajamafied and bed-haired.

I first heard Ali Baba's cry not as a reader of Scheherazade's crepuscular, mortal entertainment, but as a pajamafied fanatic of weekend TV.

Slightly more integrated, and much more entertaining, is Marcelle and Charles's daughter, Elodie (Francis Benhamou), a frequently pajamafied, hilariously logorrheic, self-involved know-it-all riding out the tail end of a two-year manic-depressive episode.
