Creature of the night
It seems that I've developed some sort of somnambulism.
When I came back home from drinking with the boys Saturday night, I was pretty drunk, but not ridiculously over intoxicated. I went to bed straight away, only to wake up finding myself standing in front of the mirror in my living room, in my underwear, trying to take out my contact lenses. Which were already sitting in their container of course, so in fact I was just sticking my fingers in my eyes. Wtf?
When I was a kid, my parents would sometimes find me sitting on the bathroom floor, sleeping. Somehow in my sleep, I had walked there, just to sit down and go back to sleep. As cute as this may have been, I don't really feel like developing a fear of going to sleep only to find myself clawing my eyes out an hour later.
So far this has been a one time experience, but I'm still really weirded out. Could this have been alcohol related? Maybe stress induced?
As far as I know, nothing of the sort happened last night and I'm kind of hoping it will remain just the one time. I suppose I could go see a doctor about if it starts happening more regularly, but if chamomille tea before bedtime works just as well, I'd rather do that.
I'm going to assume this was a single incident and that it won't happen again. I'm kind of freaked out by it, though.
More on this later. Or rather, hopefully not.
