How can you be asleep but conscious? When asleep, the body performs what amounts to server maintenance because the server is down. It can’t do that if the server is up ... so-to-speak.

So, whachootalkinboutwillis?

“So, whachootalkinboutwillis?”

I’m talkin’ ‘bout a severe sleep disorder. I can get up and walk around, and see my dream superimposed on my surroundings. When you go into REM, and dream about a 6th grade dodgeball game, you body does not move at all. Me? My body thrashes trying to avoid being hit by the ball. Ripped up both my rotator cups 9 months ago, in my sleep!

At the same time
