It probably wouldn't be subconscious.

My brain must have been lacking those signals on certain occassions. Weird the way it happens, huh? What's even stranger is that it most often happens after he's been a real a-hole that day. I don't see a correlation, do you?

Oh, and //smack.

You are right; it is funny the way that that works out. My wife used to work in a polysomnography lab and she never could explain to me how her muscles didn't respond in the usual fashion. I think that you might be on to something with the husband connection.

It is part of the problem! Remember it prints it out in words.

The problem I had with mapquest was that I'd print the directions to get somewhere - forgetting to print out directions on how to get back. Yes, I can reverse them in my head, but occassionally the route back is different. I'm the type that stresses out when I don't know exactly where we're going - which doesn't make for a fun car ride. I would hold those papers in my hands and look at them every 30 seconds or so. Ever since I bought the GPS, travelling is much less stressful because I don't worry about missing a turn. Oh, and I can read a map and am the "navigator" of the family.

My co-worker is also an "act out your dreams" person. She's got a bunch of funny stories including yelling "fire" while they were camping and waking up a whole bunch of people who thought there really was a fire. She started taking this medicine (requip) and the first night her husband had to check to make sure she was still breathing because she'd never slept that still. This morning, my husband told me to look into getting that medicine. Though... not sure he'd check if I was still breathing...

"I dunno what time she stopped breathing; she was already not breathing when I checked her five hours ago."

that's worth investigating!

I did that Saturday night! started heading back the way I came, forgetting that I'd come in on a one-way street (no, I didn't drive the wrong way down a one-way street). I didn't have a map of the area, either, but I quickly found my way to some signs directing me back to the highway I wanted.

Yep, that's what it's for. Don't know if it's a bunch of hooey or not, but she's been able to sleep without beating up her husband.
