A typical night – Director’s cut

Filed under: Half-Asleep Jason — Shauna @ 2:54 pm

[Fade In]

Scene: Bedroom

[Close-up of alarm clock]: 3:21 a.m.

Jason, mumbling fearfully in his sleep: Nommdsghsaugsdlno…OW!!!

Me, startled awake and thinking back to his previous nightmares of being killed or watching as I’m being killed: Are you OK?

Jason: Someone threw a dart at me!

Me: Wha? A dart?

Jason: Yeah. I was at work with Nikki Sixx…

Me: The guy from Mötley Crüe???

Jason: Yeah. He was a press operator. Anyway, we were all playing darts and one of the guys threw one at me.

Me: Where did you get hit?

Jason: In the elbow.

Me: O…kay…

Jason: That’s OK. I hit him back and got him in the spine. HA HA!

Me: …

Jason, snoring.

  1. You guys have the best sleep shenanigans.

    It’s all fun and games until someone gets a dart to the spine.

  3. Torsten and I both have nightmares sometimes and we wake each other up when it happens. My last one was just the night before last and apparently I was breathing all hard and kind of freaking out in my sleep. I remember distinctly dreaming that someone was chasing me around my parents’ house with a gun, trying to shoot me and shooting my family on the way. I think it’s because I saw American Gangster, because the ambiance was very similar.

    The point being, Jason’s nightmare sounds a little more my style. I wish I had that kind.

  5. I once sat up from a dead sleep and shouted, “Where’s everybody at? There’s usually a lot of people around here!” It was three in the morning, in our bedroom.

  6. Haha! Your stories make me want a boyfriend just so I can have bizarre middle-of-the-night experiences. Well, maybe not.
