Living alone

[Shawnee123]

There are so many great things about living alone. There are also crappy things ( and I know it goes both ways for living with others, as well.) Here is the newest crappy thing I have discovered:

I have always had fitful dreams. Sometimes, I have dreams that are so freaking cool I'm bummed when I wake up that it wasn't true (like the time I was on a space ship, seemed so real.) Often, though, the dreams are not so pretty.

I woke myself up yelling/groaning at least twice last night that I remember. After I wake up, I catch my breath and go get a drink of water, but I remember when I was with someone. There was something comforting about waking up in that state and having someone ask if you were OK.

If you have a nightmare alone at night and scream, and no one is there to hear, do you make a sound? :p

Anyone else get the night terrors? I was watching a Lunesta commerical last night and I had to laugh. Apparently, Lunesta makes everyone fall asleep on their back, with their head tilted to their left at a 45 degree angle, and they never move or turn over all night. They wake up to a sunshiney day just smiling their heads off. Perhaps I should try that? Kind of a Stepford Sleeper?
