Armadillo Fruit Salad?????


I talk in my sleep. I have done this since I was a kid, but in recent years I have become much more fluent in sleep talk. I think that this is because M thinks it is funny to talk to me when I am sleeping and see what I will say. A lot of times he will talk to me in Urdu. Last night he told me that we was saying Karachi janne? (Do you want to go to Karachi?) And I kept saying haan. A few days ago I started laughing out loud while I was sleeping. I woke up M and he started laughing too. When he asked me what was so funy, I said "armadillo fruit salad." What the???? I have no idea where that could have come from. I have no memory of any of it either, he had to tell me about it the next day.

The sleep talking thing is genetic I think, my mom is notorious for talking in her sleep too. One time she cussed my dad out so bad while she was sleeping and he didn't realize that she was asleep. He didn't talk to her for a couple of days and she had no idea what was wrong!

One of my most embarassing moments of my teen years comes from a sleep talking experience. This guy had asked me out several times and I kept turning him down because I just didn't think he was attractive (shallow I know). So finally I thought I will give him a chance and agreed to go out with him. I told my mom before he came to pick me up that he wasn't that cute, but was really nice. When we came home that night the light was still on, but my mom was asleep on the couch. He insisted on coming in to say goodnight to her, although little warning bells were going off in my head. As we came in she said in her sleep, "I don't know, I didn't think he was that ugly." Needless to say, I was mortified and he never asked me out on another date again.
