I hear the secrets that you keep...

...when you're talking in your sleep.

I have been know to chat it up while I am sleeping. In my college dorm room days, roommates would tell me all about the crazy things that I would mumble in my sleep, and I even went sleep-walking once my freshman year.  When Jenna asked me what I was doing shuffling around in the mini-fridge in our room in the middle of the night, I replied "I forgot to brush my teeth." Uh, yeah.

And now that I have a constant bed-fellow (who stays up watching tv in bed much later than my 10 pm bedtime), I usually get a play-by-play the following day of the things that I mutter while I get my beauty rest.  Usually, my ramblings don't make much sense and they are more gibberish than anything. However, Friday night was my shining moment.

David and I went to sleep at an embarassingly early hour on Friday night.  I was a few glasses deep into the red wine and couldn't keep my eyes open any longer, so to bed we went.  David's recount of the story is that shortly after I had fallen asleep, I was asleep on my side, facing him, where the light from the tv was shining on my face, and he said that all of a sudden, I spoke loudly and clear as a bell, "Do you want me to hold the pistol?"

He said that he looked at me and saw that I was dead-asleep, so he asked me "What pistol?" and I replied, "Well, ok then, I will just work the list at the door."  Then I had no more to say.  I guess I had already started working the list at the door in my dreamland, probably pissed off at whoever wouldn't let me hold the pistol.

Apparently, I was in the role of an undercover agent, or a club bouncer, or maybe I was an undercover agent posing as a club bouncer (Law and Order-esque). Or even just a club bouncer in a sketchy neighborhood where firearms are a necessary evil.  Regardless, it gave David a good laugh, and I love to hear about the wild & random second-life I lead each night...

Do any of you sleep-talk or sleep-walk and say/do random/weird things??
