i need some sleepy time tea...

oh how i drag my ass when it comes to this lovely blog we have here. i guess i'm not the writer i wanted to be, but i'm trying. at least jon posts on a regular basis and gives the folks something to read. i could make mindless posts about the minutes of my life but meh...i figure no one really needs/wants to know how i kill time and that's really not 'writing worth reading'. i have plans to get going on taking more photographs and maybe do more visual posts but it's a slow process. i'm not sure why but i have recognized my funk and i'm trying to remedy said problem, so please bear with me.
in the meantime, i have had a couple interesting/weird things happen to me whilst sleeping this week. first one was a few days ago...i managed to wake jon and myself up by screaming in my sleep. i was having a very vivid dream involving me sneaking out of a house that one of my co-workers was trying to sell. funny that the co-worker in question tries to sell me crap all of the time. crap being creative memories scrapbooking supplies and pampered chef-which if i could afford, i'd have it all. upon leaving the house, which i had a key for but i was sneaking in and out of as some kind of shortcut, i see a man in the backyard. he resembled the neighbour in disturbia-which i figure is in my brain because the commercials are in heavy rotation at work. i tell myself to just keep walking and act like i was a person viewing the house. he approaches me and then i see the crowbar drop from his sleeve. i start to run and he starts to swing. just as it's about to hit me in the leg, i scream and wake up. the last time i can recall screaming in my sleep was when i was 15 or so, while camping in the states with my folks and beth. something about raccoons gnawing their way into our tent. i have been told that i've cried in my sleep too. when i was younger i know i used to sleep walk/talk. i would come out into the living room and sit with my folks and have conversations. my dad is a very animated sleeper. he acts out what is happening in the dream, flying helicopters, driving boats etc. he also talks and opens his eyes...it's totally creepy. i know some other folks who would take a shower, get dressed and ready for work/school all while they were sleeping. there are some people who eat fully prepared meals in their sleep. i don't believe i'm this severe but today i managed to somehow dump a full glass of water all over me and the bed while i was closing the window. i was half asleep and have no idea how it happened. so yeah, figure that one out freud.
