Do you ever have something more like a night terror than a nightmare, where you wake yourself up screaming, and you can still see elements of your dream in the room with you even after you open your eyes?
So I get this sometimes, and usually Mr. Kuus is awakened by my screams long before I am, and he pats me and wakes me up and tells me that nothing is wrong, it's just a dream. But now we've apparently spent so much time together that we've turned a weird corner, and a couple of nights ago, we were awakened by both of us shrieking our crazy little heads off.
Thank the gods that our houseguests had gone home; I can't even imagine sleeping in a strange place and being woken by that.
Haha this happens to us as well - not at the same time though. Mostly it's DH that wakes me up screaming and sometimes himself, but it's happened to me a few times.

It really took us a good long while of screaming before we figured out that nothing was actually wrong. It was like, okay, maybe I was dreaming, but if it were a dream, then why would HE be screaming? I should keep screaming. And vice verse.
I also have hypnagogic hallucinations. One night I was dreaming that a witch was turning me into a goat (not a newt), and all I had to do to stop it was say something. Unfortunately the process had gone too far already, and instead of saying something human I bleated. Out loud. Really loud.
My live-in boyfriend at the time was thoroughly creeped out by waking up in the middle of the night to "BAAAAAA." And then I peacefully went back to sleep while he stared into the darkness wondering what the hell just happened.

See, this is even funnier for me because for some reason, every time I see you, my head jacks up your SN and I read it as Maizy Goats.
Oh holy hell. I've been reading it as Maizy Goats all along, too.
Ha! That's what I get for trying to be clever. I hoped the profile pic would help a little (it's a mare... eating oats...), but it really does sort of look like a random jumble of characters. Oh well, a kidley divy, too.
