I even fall asleep in my dreams!

This morning had one of those bizarre experiences that I'm not sure every "normal" sleeper has.

I spent the good portion of the morning dreaming about being asleep. True story.

I woke up around 8:30 to complete my morning ritually of groggily ingesting three pills about an hour or two before I want to get up, so that when I actually get up it doesn't feel like someone is trying to wake me from the dead.

About 20 minutes later I wake up again. Weird. Fall back asleep. Not so weird.



Wake up about 90 minutes later to an alarm, definitely not so weird. Except as I came out of my haze I realized that it felt like I was arising from a coma. Not physically, but mentally.

Then it hits me, I woke up mid-dream. Once again, not weird. I dream pretty much the entire time I'm asleep.

This dream however, was bizarre. I had dreamed something about laying down and falling asleep one night at like 6pm, and not until waking up until 10am ... not the next day, but the day after. In my dream I was so agitated at my Mother for not waking me at some point. I had just slept through an entire day, and no one thought to wake me.

I kept yelling at my family about how I'm narcoleptic, and that yes I do want to sleep, but when it starts hitting the twelve hour mark it's clearly not because I want to and they should wake me because I can't necessarily wake myself.

Then I woke up in real life.

Of course the first thing I did was check my cell phone for the date and day of the week. I half expected it to be Thursday.

It wasn't, obviously, but I still felt pretty weird after my dream.

I mean, I spend all day sleeping as it is, why do I have to be asleep in my dreams too!

The only real question that remains for me is what was I dreaming while I was asleep in my dream. I know that I was dreaming. Totally true. I just can't remember what it was.

Like I said, weird.
