"YAHTZEE!@$#"
|
|
|
|
What the fuck?
|
|
|
|
"If i had a fucking can i would kill someone."
|
|
|
|
Repeat that one more time?
|
|
|
|
"Six sex sock seck soak sack seven six sex socks..."
|
|
|
|
What the hell is this shit?
|
|
|
|
This shit is people's sleeping habits. These phrases were all said by
|
|
my roommate in his sleep.
|
|
|
|
"HEEEYYY!@#@ I NEED SOMETHING TO DRINK!$!@# MAKE THAT NEGRO GET ME
|
|
SOMETHING TO DRINK!@#!" <sounds of smacking lips>
|
|
|
|
Now the only reason i put that particular line in this text was because
|
|
he yelled it just now. JUST now. As i am writing.
|
|
|
|
When i still lived with my parents, i rarely spent the night at home.
|
|
On nights when i would actually sleep, my friends usually conked out before
|
|
me. So i had my chance to observe. And i would always wonder, "Why do they
|
|
do this in their sleep?"
|
|
|
|
I snore. Pure and simple. People make fun of me. I don't care. It's loud,
|
|
yes, but its natural for most of the male population and some of the females.
|
|
But there is a scientific explanation for this. Deviated Septum. A fucked up
|
|
nose. Pure and simple also. But what causes people to talk in their sleep?
|
|
Or sleepwalk?
|
|
|
|
One guy that lived here used to sleepwalk. I imagine he still does, but
|
|
he has long since moved out. But anyhow, I would be watching some movie at
|
|
about 3am (no cable, goddammit.) and he would walk out in his boxers,
|
|
scratching some various part of his body. His head most of the time. Or
|
|
his ass. He would look straight at me, mumble something unintelligable, and
|
|
walk back into his bedroom.
|
|
|
|
In the morning he would recall absolutely none of it.
|
|
|
|
Which, quite frankly, scared the fuck out of me. That one person can
|
|
perform normal, everyday movements perfectly in his sleep, and never
|
|
remember it? How can his body tell him to do this? While SLEEPING? Sleep
|
|
is relaxing and for restoring the body's energy. Isn't sleepwalking an
|
|
unneccasary spending of energy? Or maybe it's because the body has the
|
|
energy replenished, but the restoration is not complete?
|
|
|
|
I don't know. And at the current moment, completely cut off from the
|
|
outside world (our friggin phone line is disconnected for a few more days,
|
|
so no more net and no research on this subject.), i won't know for a while.
|
|
But it gives me a chance to think while everyone is asleep. And it lets me
|
|
observe. Which makes me seem (and feel) like a scientist studying rats.
|
|
|
|
Just a minute ago, i heard a door open. One of my friends came in. It
|
|
is eight o'clock in the morning, and he just dropped off someone at home,
|
|
and he doesn't want to go home. Okay, no problem.
|
|
|
|
But how people can drop into a dead sleep in less then twenty seconds
|
|
after sitting down is beyond me. Even i require a couple minutes for my
|
|
body to start shutting itself down for sleep. But shit, he comes in, sits
|
|
down, plop, snore. I can stay awake for a week straight, eating no food
|
|
and drinking only water, and after seven days of no sleep, i will STILL
|
|
require a couple minutes between the time i lay down and the time i
|
|
crash.
|
|
|
|
It must be me. I see other people do it in a heartbeat. Sit. Lie down.
|
|
Close eyes. Snore. All in ten to fifteen seconds. Like i said, it's beyond
|
|
me.
|
|
|
|
"What." <he's talking again> "Fuck off, i'm helping myself."
|
|
|
|
Now what triggers talking? Dreams? People have told me a few times i
|
|
spoke in my sleep with only one or two discernable words. One was "Kaiser".
|
|
This drove me crazy for a week. Could i have been referring to the hospital
|
|
chains? Or a position in German government? WWII is and always has been the
|
|
most fascinating point in history to me, but this is a little to extreme.
|
|
|
|
And the morning after, i couldn't even recall dreaming.
|
|
|
|
Okay, yes, people forget dreams. But if a dream is vivid enough as to
|
|
where you begin TALKING, shouldn't you be able to remember it? Why not?
|
|
My roommate is always amazed when he hears what he said the night before.
|
|
I am amazed when i am told. He thinks it's funny. It's normal for him. He
|
|
talks nonsense. But i'm scared of it. What if i say something that could
|
|
incriminate me? It's happened. I was saying one of my friend's girlfriend's
|
|
names in my sleep and i had a big arguement with him the next day.
|
|
|
|
But it wasn't my fault! I couldn't even remember a dream, much less
|
|
explain why it was HIS girlfriend i had to be talking about!
|
|
|
|
Now Kaiser and a name are legit topics. They can be followed up on. But
|
|
this is me, who speaks single words.
|
|
|
|
What kind of mindset creates these insane sentences of babble? Why, at
|
|
roughly 2 to 2:30am, he has to yell as loud as he can (and strangely enough,
|
|
not wake himself up. shit, i snore so loud i wake myself up.) this phrase:
|
|
|
|
"Hold on and i'll go get the house."
|
|
|
|
Hello? And this means what, now? And "make that negro get me something
|
|
to drink"? I admit, this is a legitimate sentence, but what can set off
|
|
"Six sex sock seck soak sack seven six sex socks..." and such babble? It
|
|
staggers me to think that people's minds are that out of order. Not as
|
|
in unfunctional, but as in.. well, cluttered is the only word that comes
|
|
to mind.
|
|
|
|
(Goddamn, the other guy (the enagaged one) is snoring so loud he sounds
|
|
like a fucking foghorn. It's a wonder his fiance gets any sleep at night.)
|
|
|
|
Well. I guess i am off to bed. I hope this text sets you thinking. I
|
|
don't care if i make noises or snore or talk or even sleepwalk while i'm
|
|
asleep, but i swear to god, if i ever find any footage or tape of me doing
|
|
any of that...
|
|
|
|
Sweet dreams. hehehehehhe... =]
