hmmm… what?
One night I was lying awake reading, late, and Steve was sleeping. Out of the blue, he starts talking in his sleep…
“I can’t get it. I can’t get it.”
Now, I love to mess with him, so I will often answer him, trying to figure out what he’s dreaming about.
“Get what?”
“The wire, I can’t run this wire.” (For those of you that don’t know, he’s an electrician.)
A few minutes later, he started again.
“I can’t get this wire run. I can’t get it.”
Several more minutes pass and suddenly he starts shaking all over and making this ah-ah-ah noise, his body got real straight/stiff.
I totally freaked out.
“What!? What!? What’s wrong!?!?”
He didn’t even wake up, he just stopped shaking, relaxed and said, “oh, I must’a gotten electrocuted.”
I lost it, it was absolutely hilarious (and, of course, I was relieved that he wasn’t having a seizure or something). Of course, this type of funny is hard to convey with just text, but when I re-enact it, we usually get a lot of laughs. The next morning, Steve didn’t remember any of it!
So there you have it, the requested electrocution dream. Who wins? ;-)

people do the strangest thing while they are sleeping…
my mom once saw my brother (when he was 18?) climbing out of his bed on hands and knees. Sticking his hands around the corner and touching the stairs. when my mum asked what he was doing he replied ‘I’m checking if the carpet is still on the stairs!’

Hey Valerie, I don’t know which one of you wins! My mom bit my dad once when she was sleeping, but that’s kind of a different story.. :/ Haha that dream sounds hilarious though. I can imagine why you’d be scared at first. Wow! Luckily it was just a dream, and it was nothing serious. My parents ask/answer questions while they’re sleeping/dreaming too. Man that’s pretty funny. Steve’s dream was really vivid! Funny how some things you can’t recall at all, even when they’re pretty big. :o Anyway, I think we need a tie breaker, any takers? ;)
