I never nap. I hate to nap! Haven’t always though. I used to nap when I was a teenager, every day after school. It got frightening. I have no idea what happened to my body but I would sometimes become totally aware, as if I had woken up. I would be unable to move and there would be strange sounds. Needless to say, I don’t like to nap. Sometimes I will, but I try not to. I haven’t had that experience in years.
Today I was exhausted when I got home. I have been averaging 4 hours of sleep a night, and the 6 day work weeks are catching up with me! I took a nap. I started to feel like I was floating. Spinning around, floating, and aware. I could feel the cats lying on me, yet I was floating around. Then something snapped. I suddenly felt quite within my body and completely paralyzed. There was pressure. It was like I was sinking into the couch. I heard a strange vibrating sound. There was a man talking to me about cat hair on my shirt. I at first thought Richard was home, as I felt someone speaking into my ear. Then there were other chattering voices. I kept feeling that pressure and hearing the noise and the voices. I couldn’t move. Then I heard the garage door open. NOW Richard was home. Who was talking? I had to move. I struggled for a few minutes, and as Richard opened the door to the house I was released. The noise stopped. I was lying just as I was. I could move.
I figure it is one of four things. 1. A REALLY intense dream, recurring from my youth out of nowhere. 2. A psychic-out of body-haunting thing with demons. 3. Aliens are running tests on me. 4. A seizure of some kind, and something I am doing is triggering the same response I had when I was young.
All of which makes me sound nuts. I know. I am probably just physically run down. My brain is having a meltdown from the stress. Who knows.
