I've thought of another one: My wife and I have an imaginary baby (known only as The Baby) conceived at the first moment of our relationship. Right now he's almost four-and-a-half years old and still occasionally referred to, usually in the form "Where's The Baby?" or "I wonder whatever happened to The Baby?" As far as I know, The Baby's been locked in the closet for the last three years.

Also, my wife is one of the best special educators in America, (that's not just me talking, most people say this,) amd has several years' experience with actual shaken babies. This has not stopped her from declaring Shaken Baby Syndrome her "favorite disability" and occasionally, publicly pretending to be a shaken baby.
