[personal profile] apocalypsos
Last night, I sat down on the edge of the bed to do something, keeled over, and went right to sleep. I seriously don't think normal people have this sort of narcoleptic reaction to bedding, even if it is bedding. And I've done this before, too ... just sat right down on a bed and fallen asleep as soon as I've put butt to bedspread.

I suppose there are worse bedtime habits I could have, though, like sleepwalking through small villages and sacrificing their goats to Cthulhu or voting conservative or something. My first college roommate once told me that one night I sat bolt upright in bed in my sleep and screamed at the top of my lungs. I don't even want to know what that dream entailed, but I imagine it had something to do with a garden hose shoved up my nose with the other end attached to a cement mixer full of prune juice.
