does your hubby/bf talk in his sleep?

No, but he snores as loud as a wood chipper. I am the one who sleep talks. We are quite the pair.

DH and I skipped out on dinner reservations the night we discovered this blog. We couldn't stop listening to the sound bites!

Do you think they are all real? If it is... that man is sserrriously GENIUS!
 
I have woken myself up laughing. I'll remember what was so funny at first, but over the course of the day, forget.
I also sometimes have very ... :oops: intense :oops: ... dreams. Including a fantastic ending! :o :lol:

Hubby has woken me up with gibberish and the odd 'yeah, I'll get right on it'. Ha. He also snores loudly, and bounces around instead of just turning over like a normal person. We have separate bedrooms now. I couldn't stand the sleep deprivation! :((

I was going to link to that BBC article like Kenny did. I feel badly for those of you with the really bad sleep walking/eating/karate(!). Thank you for sharing though. Some are quite funny. :bigsmile:

Actually, I think they are real. They were on a talk show and posted the clip on their site, and they seem legit to me. But I tend to think that the truth is stranger than fiction, so . . .
 
Yay Tacori--your hubby sounds almost as bad as Brendan and Dale in 'Stepbrothers'... :)

I'm really not one to talk, though. I'm pretty bad myself. I had to stop taking Ambien and Lunesta because I was sleepwalking and sleep eating constantly. I heard about people getting picked up for DUI after taking sleep aids and getting behind the wheel, and I was afraid that could be the next step. Also, eating an entire bag of Halloween candy and half a jar of peanut butter in one night was a total bummer. So many calories and I don't even remember doing it! When I woke up it looked like the kitchen had been ravaged by raccoons! I thought my roommate was a total pig until I found candy wrappers in my bed ;P

I talk, wander around and laugh in my sleep. When I was working as a nanny i went with the family on vacation to their home in Montauk. The father of the kids was a light sleeper and I woke him several times wandering around the big, creaky old house.

The most dramatic incident was when I *terrified* FI having a vivid dream that someone was in our house. I woke him with blood-curdling screams, saying "theres someone in the house! I saw a man in the doorway!". He grabbed his "beat stick" (a chin up bar) that he keeps by the bed and ran around the house yelling "you better be ready m*****f'er!" and jabbing the bar in the closets, behind the shower curtain, etc. I finally became lucid enough to realized that I had been dreaming. But I had to wait til he came back to our room to tell him that--I was afraid I would turn a corner and get clubbed in the face! Smart move since FI has a black belt in hap ki do and a blue belt in krav maga. It was the middle of summer, we had every window in the house open and we can pretty much shake hands with our neighbors. we were SHOCKED that no one called the police. :O

So DH talks, eats, and sleepwalks in his sleep. He also does some Karate. :errrr:
Eating:
I have posted this before in a thread but I shall rehash it. I woke up one morning with the kitchen disarray. There was a dry bowl of raisin bran with a full jug of milk next to it, now warm, sitting on the counter. We had just bought one of those huge Costco pumpkin pies that day. It had been torn open, and all that was left was the pan and a fork. Maybe some bits of crust. He had eaten the WHOLE pie. When I woke him up to show him, he was convinced that it was ME that did it! He never believed me until I finally got the chance to videotape him eating cookies with his eyes closed rocking back and forth on his legs. It's actually kind of scary looking...

OMG! This is MEEE!

This is how I found out: One time while I was in college when my room mate had to stay up really late to study for an exam she said to me as I was going to bed "see you at 3"... so as we didnt have plans the next day at 3PM I was naturally confused. I asked her what she meant and she told me that I always come down from my room promptly at 3AM to "fix a snack" ...!!!

OBVIOUSLY she was lying. But to humor her, and to find out how much of a liar my roomie was... I asked her what I made to eat on these nightly escapades of mine. She proceeds to tell me that I pull out all my vegi's and "various dipping sauces" (ranch, hummus, cream cheese, bbq sauce) and put them all on the table. Then I would make a sandwich. Sit down and eat EVERYTHING while having a conversation with whoever was awake. Put everything away. Say goodnight. And walk back to my room. WHAT. A. LIAR. :nono: NO way did I eat and carry on a convo and NOT remember it!

So a few weeks later I come downstairs one morning and find a whole bunch of bags from Right Aid on the kitchen table where we ate. I was the first person up, and super annoyed that I had to clear up my inconsiderate roomie's mess just to be able to eat breakfast! So when she came down I told her about it. She said the bags were not hers. I went over and took a peek into the bags.. In it where about 10 different current "Hair trend magazines" various hair products, and about three different types of BLACK HAIR DYE. So, still not believing her - I searched around in all the bags until I found the receipt in the bag. AHA I would show her!

Sure enough, in print were the last four digits of my credit card and a time stamp of 2:47AM! at a Right Aid that I would have had to have DRIVEN TO!

Apparently, I have a strong urge to eat and dye my hair black when I am asleep. No big deal... Oh and that "frisky" thing...yep my FI says I do this too.

GREAT. JUST GREAT. :snore: :wavey: :snore:
Goldfish8! That is a crazy story!!! It's so interesting the things people do! I wonder how you looked going to that rite aid in your pjs! And buying hair dye at almost 3 in the morning! Or did you clothe yourself too in your sleep before you left? You drove too! Wow!

I've never seen Stepbrothers! Or if I have, I don't remember the sleeping part? Are they as bad as DH? Haha

Your dream is scary! How crazy would it be to think someone was in the house! I had to chuckle tho when you said you had to wait in the bedroom cuz you were afraid to turn a corner and get clubbed in the face!

This is the scene I'm thinking of--your description of your DH rocking back and forth while eating cookies and doing karate reminds me of this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jIYBatQyCM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Oh my god! Hahahahahaha so funny!!!! At least DH isn't THAT bad! I do always have to make sure we have snack food readily available on the counter. Or else DH makes a mess looking for stuff to eat.
 
I'm overtired, yet can't sleep and my fingers are so clumsy!
Yay Tacori--
We laugh about it now, but when I realized I had imagined the whole thing in a dream I burst into tears because I felt so bad about making FI think we were under attack! We really do wonder if our neighbors heard all the commotion, and if so, WHAT MUST THEY THINK OF US?!?! Hahaha... Oh wellz, I think they probably knew we were crazy before that;P

I just remembered that when FI was in the drill tower (he's a fireman) he kept practicing throwing ladders in his sleep. I was awoken to him saying "32 X, sir!", then smashing me across the cheekbone with his forearm. I yelled "OOOWWWW!!!" but he didn't wake up, so I shook him to wake him and yelled again, "oowwww! You just punched me in the face!!!" I really wanted him to know about it... apparently something about my face is very clubbable ;) I think I just made up a new word.
 
My husband talks occasionally in his sleep but he mostly just snores. I've woken up laughing and crying on separate occasions before and it was the weirdest feeling because I couldn't remember what I had been dreaming about.

Yep, I remember seeing this couple on tv a while ago now, but I had forgotten about their website. Looking through some of them had me in absolute stitches. :lol: The one about the liger and Noah's illegible handwriting was the funniest, plus the subsequent discussion and analysis regarding them doing crossword puzzles was rather entertaining as well.

Um... honestly I dont EVEN want to know! I was living with other people at the time so I slept with clothes on. Thank god! That was the last time I took lunesta ( I had just switched over from a different sleepmed )... so lesson of the day boys and girls ... if you take lunesta have someone hide your keys before bed!
