Is anyone an overactive dreamer? I can not recall a night I've slept without having at least one dream.
My stories are endless, including scaring my college roomate by giggling for 30 minutes straight, explaining and reciting parts of Meno's Dialogue by Plato while talking in my sleep, to talking on my cell phone (it was not dialed, but I was holding it and talking into it). My girlfriend is blessed with a small bladder, so her trips to the bathroom are frequent at night. The movement wakes me up and I always find myself readjusting from a dream, which are almost always 'real.' I've counted at least 7 occurances in a night where I was sure of the dream beforehand.
Anyone else an overactive/vivid dreamer?
On the topic of sleep walking,
When I was a child I used to sleep walk constantly, my parents would find me curled up on the floor in a different room most nights. I've been good at college, mostly considering that I take the top bunk and can't seem to find my way down in my sleepy state.
On a related note, the funniest (and scariest) sleep walking story I've heard was from my friend Phill. A bartender at a pub in England, he returned home one night to his parents house, and a few hours later awoke in his front lawn in his underwear, with the window open and the doors locked.
My best advice is to keep your windows locked :D
