I'm a sleep walker/talker. I do it every night, 90 minutes after I fall asleep. Like clockwork. I do all sorts of crazy things, like take apart ceiling fans (it had a squeak, what can I say?), or cheer on my Redskins while pacing the bedroom floor. The only time I ever remember any of it is when I wake up during it. That puts me in a really weird state. It's like I'm halfway in my dream, and halfway in reality. Very strange, and I don't like it.

One of my best dreams ever came when I was an undergrad. As a CS major, I took a ton of programming classes. I loved them, but they always had large projects. I was never one to work through the night on something like a lot of people did. I valued sleep. One night I went to bed before I had come up with a solution to a particularly difficult problem. During the night, I dreamed about the project and actually came up with a solution in my sleep that worked. It was awesome. I wish I could work more in my sleep.
