Originally Posted By wahooskipper Oh, great story. My dad is pretty prone to walking in his sleep. One night, year's ago, he woke up only to find himself OUTSIDE his hotel room and knocking on the door. He didn't have his key and was up on the 15th floor or so. So, he had to jump into the elevator and go down to the front desk to get a key. Fortunately, it was the middle of the night so there wasn't much going on. In the morning he went to check out and the same person who gave him the spare key was at the front desk. I guess he didn't recognize my dad b/c he didn't say anything. Which is a good thing because, well....did I happen to mention that my father sleeps in the buff? No joke. I hope it isn't hereditary!

When I was a teenager, she took me to see Super Mario Brothers, and during the scene where Mario & Luigi were escaping from jail, she kind of woke up and yelled, "Turn that <expletive deleted> thing down!!!" I've never let her live it down, either, lol.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Never walking, occasional sighing, rare talking. I've woken myself up talking during 'vivid' dreams, but only a handful of times in my life. I once cold-cocked my husband during a violent dream, he was NOT happy about that, lol.

I had to "cold-cock" her so I could breathe. She woke up and had no clue what happened except for me putting her onto the floor. I really don't have a clue what I can do about it, other than try to reduce all the stress I'm surrounded with. It's time for a vacation, but I won't get one until July.

Originally Posted By smedley Mark me up as a walker and talker, less so on the walking front these days, but it does happen occasionally, the scariest occasion (for everyone but me) was probably when I was aged 11 and managed to escape from the house (it's a long story, dad was arriving home from work, and I managed to get out of the house and down street whilst he put car in the garage, mother assumed it was him coming in, it was only 10 mins later when he came in they realised what had happened, took half the street 20 mins to find me, I'd gone to the bus stop to head to school, in my nightdress, at 11pm, good job it wasnt now).... I still talk regularly, freaks DH out completely, the worst apparently is when I sit bolt upright screaming blue murder, then just lay down back asleep... Good job he loves me Not tried to strangle him yet though lol!
