You know how you're supposed to be essentially paralyzed while you're dreaming? Well, it turns out that sometimes the paralysis fails, which explains sleepwalking and related behaviors.

This hasn't been an issue for me until last night, when I had to punch someone* for shooting me with Nerf dart guns. Unfortunately, for some reason my paralysis failed and I hit the headboard of the bed full-strength. I'm left with a rather surreal memory and a couple scrapes and a little bit of swelling on my right hand, and I'm glad I didn't have any leverage, as I almost dislocated my index finger.
