    i cracked my missus square in the face with a head butt about a year ago. I was in a fight in my dream, she tried to wake me and ..em i dont know, but i launched in with a head butt. I didnt hit her that hard as it broke nothing, but it hurt none the less.
    Normally its only flying hammer fists or id be talking in my sleep- its at that point she fishes for informaton
    I've done this 3 times over the past few weeks. I also come out with rubbish when she asks me anything.

    One night I was passed out on the bed after a few bevvies.
    I was in that half asleep half awake state and I realised i still had my make-up on. I reached over and took a pack of face wipes and some cleanser from the bedside locker and started sleepily taking off my eye makeup. Bout a minute goes by and I'm wondering why the fcuk my eyes are stinging so badly....look at the bottle of cleanser and discover it's not cleanser it's fcuking nail polish remover!

    I'd say that was like washing your face with bleech, that must have hurt for a while.

    I think we've all poured tea into our cereal, yes?:D
    Frigging poured me milk into the kettle the other day. Was not impressed when the time came for me to pour me tea.

    I put a berocca in a cup of tea once, and didn't realise it until there was only the dregs left.

    Scraped the remains of breakfast into the sink and threw the plate in the bin.
    This would be me too, the amount of times >.<

    I've also got my three bins lined up out the back and I robotically empty stuff into them without thinking. I've fired plates, bowls and cutlery into the brown bin - half way back in the back door when I realise what I've done.. speshul :pac:

    Drove to my old place of work and what was about ten mins into the drive before copped on.
    Reversed straight back into my girlfriends classic beetle that was parked behind. I saw it but still flew into it.

    my other half used to act out his nightmares he dragged me out of the bed one night because he thought the roof was falling in :D

    My linen basket and toilet are directly opposite and twice I've stumbled into the bathroom sleepy eyed and lifted the lid on the toilet on to throw my jocks in there and then turn around and wizz in the linen basket.

    Would it not be time to start considering moving the linen basket? :D:p

    Came home exhausted from work during the week, couldn't get my keys to work so I started hammering down the door. Some asians answered and after a minute or two of confusing conversation I saw the number on the door.

    I was in the wrong apartment block. Scarleh.

    A couple of months ago I fell asleep during the day and was woken by my phone ringing at around 7 p.m. I was so tired and confused I answered the phone by saying "What time is it?" The confused person told me the time. I said "Alright so, thought I was late for college" then mumbled to myself for a while. Would of been grand if it was a friend ringing, but it turned out it was the bank and I just made myself sound like a retard.

    I once fell asleep on the bus and woke up and for a split second wasn't sure if I was going to work or going home from work. I had to check which side of the Liffey I was on. I was devastated when I realised I was going to work.

    I head butted the OH once too. Was asleep and sat up suddenly and then pushed back hard to lay down again. She went under me in the meantime and the back of my head slammed into her forehead. Que blood everywhere. I brought her to the hospital, rushed in the emergencty door and said ' I need help, I hit my girl friend and she is bleeding'.

    Oh... the looks I got!!!:o

    I've a funny one too.
    I know a man who was brushing his teeth one morngin and his mouth started getting really hot. Then it started to burn and he knew something was up. Looked at the toothpaste to find out it was his daughters hair removal cream... ahhhhhhh ha aha:D

    I once got to my locker in school, went to take my bag off my back, and it wasn't there. 'Twas sitting at home beside my desk. I live 10 minutes away from the school and I had time so I legged it back home to get the bag, turns out I left the locker open and someone had drawn cocks on my books.

    Not a good morning.

    break stuff, put things back in wrong place.....kettle in fridge etc, take a drink and completely miss my mouth, it's pretty much like being drunk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,080 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    Woke up at like 4am thinking it was time for work,proceed to get dressed and have my breakfast before seeing what time it was.

    I often grab a sneaky nap for an hour when I get home in the evening, and with the bright mornings /evenings I wake up confused.. cue me running down the stairs again thinking Im running late :rolleyes:

    Yeah that happened to me as well. I was at home around 6 pm and went to bed. Woke up a couple of hours later and had to look for my phone to check the time to know whether it was morning or evening.
