- About 8 years ago I had one of the most terrifying experiences of my life. I was
- taking a short afternoon nap (I was working evenings, so this was my 'normal'
- mode of sleep.). I was partially awakened by the T.V. one of the most annoying
- shows (won't tell you what it was cuz I don't want to offend anyone) came on, and
- I tried to get up to turn the T.V. off..I couldn't..I tried to call my wife who
- was around the corner in the kitchen (I could hear her), and I couldn't, I tried
- to move just enough to roll myself off the couch, reasoning that I was stuck
- half way between being asleep, and awake. I couldn't. By this time I was really
- scared, and really uncomfortable..I would have like to roll over, but I couldn't.
- I just layed there..finally after what seemed like hours, my wife came in, and
- shook me to wake me up for work...I could open my eyes, but still couldn't move,
- or speak!! She thought I was sleeping with my eyes open (which I have done for
- years, so she got an ice cube, and let it drip on my face...this did finally
- bring me out of it...
- I hope I never get `stuck` like that again!!
