Still I'm glad you found them or at least your dad did. It's always going to be a source of slight disappointment to me that I'll never quite be as good at practical DIY type tasks as my dad is, I can usually do that sort of stuff if I think about it but I rarely have the need or the tools to make it worth my while.

Well. I think Sleepy Pheebs is a bit like Drunken Pheebs so I can only presume my line of thought when shunting the pants in to the boxes went:

"Hmm. I like pants. And I like Cereals. LETS COMBINE THEM AND MAKE THEM AWESOME!"

/theory

DIY... other than magiiiiique.... is probably my main hobby I own more tools than I do clothes and shoes! Haha! Just think tiredness got to me today! Which reminds me... must update my House of Doomy thread..

lol, I can imagine the look on your dads face...

"I'm just going to get myself a nice bowl of...umm... knickers...?"

I was reading an urbex forum the other day and found a post that reminded me of you! It was in a 'weird things you have found whilst urbexing' thread, and these people had been investigating a house when they found a thong pinned to a door, with a letter attached. The letter was from a girl who had also been investigating the house when, according to her, she had felt really horny and had to take all her clothes off. She then went into a trance like state and left the house naked, realising what had happened only when she was halfway down the road.

She had gone back to the house to write the letter, and left her pants there.

The strange thing was that she was called Clare.....

Had paralysis last night. That sucked. I can deal with sleep walking but I hate paralysis. Stayed awake 4am onwards as I didn't want it to happen again. *yaaaaaaaawn*

I'm going to start a sleep diary as this is just silly. I reckon it's to do with stress levels. We shall see!

You mean when you're kind of awake, but can't move?

I used to get that a lot, nearly every night at one stage, but I found that after a while I could concentrate on it and break out of it. I also found out that I wasn't actually awake after all. The more used to it I got, the more I realised little things were wrong, like thinking that I could see the room but then realising, once awake, that my memories of what I was "seeing" didn't quite tally with what I could see now I was awake, or thinking I could see poeple or hear stuff and so on, that weren't there when I woke.

Initially I never noticed and thought I had been awake and paralysed, but later on I began to realise that I was actually still asleep, just in a more "mentally aware" state. Basically dreaming that I was awake.

Once I realised that, and got used to the fact that I could "break out" if I really wanted to, it became less of an issue and I found myself waking to paralysis and just thinking "Meh...." and going back to sleep.

Now I very rarely get it. I cannot remember the last time I had it, actually. My problem now is having really lucid dreams, and then waking so suddenly that I can't differenciate between what I remember of the dream and what I remember as reality. Quite often I have woken convinced that (for example) I am a teenager, and this strange woman lying next to me in this strange bed, in this strange room, is some kind of dream and I'm panicking and trying desperately to wake up... except I can't as I'm already awake. Seriously, many times I have woken and had absolutely no idea who my wife is, as if I've never seen her before.

Other times I'm just dropping off, and I'm suddenly convinced that I haven't done my usual "nightly ritual". Sort of "Oh, I always do... ummm... something.... and I haven't done it tonight... what was it I do??" and I wrack my brains trying to remember what I do, when, in reality, I don't do anything special.... but I'm convinced I do.

The feelings are so strong that sometimes they can last hours, until I either overcome them and regain my perception, or I fall back asleep. When I awake in the morning, I'm always fine. It only happens at night.

Scares me silly

[Pheebs]

Aww that does sound horrible!!! Boo Do you get it frequently? Sounds really petrifying!

I've often been led there trying to do crosswords in my head when falling asleep... when I don't have the answers or clues. Bit weird. But it really irritates me and I keep trying to think of the answers but... I don't know what to!

O_o deep and meaningful! Hahahaha!

Paralysis... I do have my eyes open. I've been told I do and then suddenly I sit bolt upright and gasp for breath. It's weird. I used to be able to see whoever I was with moving and I would be blinking like crazy hoping they'd notice and wake me. I properly hallucinate though. I see dead people appear at my doorway and then have rapid blurred head movements and appear at the end of my bed... keeps happening until they're right against my face where I can feel their breath and sometimes the putrid smell of decaying flesh. I hear noises too... normally slow thudding footsteps coming up my stairs and down my hallway... and all the time I'm like "ARGH ARGH WAKE UP WAKE UP BREATHE MOVE TWITCH DO ANYTHING Suuuuuuuummmmmmmmmon some energy and SCREAM" and all I can do is make little muffled noises. I can feel tears running down my cheek too I'm so distressed over it.

It sucks.

What made it worse the other night was my bedroom door reaches a point where it automatically swings open. I had obviously not closed it properly and throughout the night it had been blown slightly open by an open window and when I "woke" I heard the footsteps and then the door just swung open for real and then the dead person appeared at the door. Normally the door just disappears. So it moving freaked me...

...Freaked me out entirely.

Thus no sleeping after as I sometimes fall straight back into it. I have to get up and move around and splash my face with ice cold water!

Luckily all was well last night YAY!
