This totally & completely has me freaked out!

I never said it was either. I said it was a set we don’t use and have it stored up in the side cupboard. They’re a set that someone gave us for an anniversary gift or some dumb thing.

The glasses we use are in the cupboard on the other side of the kitchen.

Somambulants often do very intricate things. There’s a post a while ago about a Doper who shaved half his beard while sleep walking. (I have no idea what the thread title was or when it was.) I’m just saying you could do a lot of things you wouldn’t normally do while sleep walking.

Clearly you have a hobgoblin living with you. One that’s got the hots for you no less. Tell me, have you had many dealings with the Little People? :wink:

For me the point is you stayed up waaaay too late Friday night; when you get yourself overtired and have strange interrupted sleep than dreams morph into reality more often than not.

Personally I’ve had it happen dozens of times, and considering it’s 3:33am and I’m still up while visiting with the kids at my parents place (after a few beers) I’m pretty sure I’l get a wild dream or two tonight before I get moving in the morning.

Enjoy the free personal insight sans $40 copay.

Once my husband and I went outoftown to a convention and stayed in the hotel. Leaving at home our cats. Now, my oldest cat, Shadow, has a “thing” for my scalp. He loves to get onto my pillow and snuggle into my hair, knead, and drool. So the first night we were there sleeping and I distictly felt the cat leap on up onto the foot of the bed and walk up to climb onto my pillow. I half-woke and muttered, “Shadow?” and, of course, he wasn’t there but I guess I really missed him or something.

Ok, ok… you didn’t stay up all night, I’m sorry. Still even a sleep disturbance like that could lead to something like first time sleepwalking. I realize you didn’t say it was a ghost or anything paranormal, but you are “freaking out” and you seem to be reluctant to accept any reasonable explanation even though many are being offered. As **Zoggie **noted, what other explanation do you want?

Now you need to put a camera in the house for piece of mind of course.

This is clearly a sign that you need interior cameras as well.

Actually I had cameras in our other house when the kids still lived at home. THEY DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THEM!

It was a pretty good set up. I could monitor the house from anywhere in the world by using the internet. And we did nail them doing some things they shouldn’t have while we were away!

When we moved into this house my wife got krunky and said she didn’t want the inside cameras installed. Kids were gone so I concurred there was no reason for them.

If this happens again I may well set them back up. If it turns out I was sleep walking the honest thing to do will be to come back in here and confess to it and eat crow. (or maybe I won’t!:D)

Okay, I can see having the security cameras outside, but interior ones that the kids didn’t even know about is way too creepy and Big Brother for my liking. That skeeves me.

Relax. It’s obvious that your subconscious mind supplied the dream to suppress the alien abduction. Aliens brought the glass – no human being would fetch one from the back of the cupboard.

Take a mirror into the bathroom and check for probes.

What’s more likely, that you sleepwalked (or possibly just got some water while you were half-asleep and forgot about it) or that it was something supernatural? Occam smash!

Not remembering that you got up and got a glass of water is just not that spooky or amazing, dude. Neither is dreaming that your wife is in bed with you. You keep acting like the fact that the water glass came from a set you don’t use is supposed to be stunning and inexplicable, but all it really shows is how out of it you were when you got up to get some water.

No, they don’t. No such thing as magic/ghosts/unicorns, etc.

You don’t seem to understand what sleepwalking is. People can engage in just about any physical activity they can when awake. What you are describing would certainly be possible if you were sleepwalking.

Yes I do. My brother-in-law does it. I’ve had conversations with him while he was sound asleep. He’s walked out the door and down the street.

But I doubt he could carry out a task, especially the delicate one of removing a glass located where this one was, without disturbing the other glasses high up in the back of that shelf.

Tough shit what you think. When our kids were in their teens and my wife and I went away without them I wanted to know what was going on back at the house (cameras were only on when we left for extended periods). The rooms recorded were the living room, kitchen and rec room. We had previous reasons to be concerned, and we weren’t going to drag them around everywhere we went.

Sigh. Of course one could. You really don’t know what sleepwalking is, friend. You may think you do, but you don’t.

Not really. At least the citizens in 1984 were aware they were being surveilled.

There is no scientific evidence that any such thing has ever happened. Moreover, it’s impossible. Seriously entertaining the possibility of poltergeists is just as inane as entertaining the possibility of gnomes or elves.

It’s a big enough pain in the arsh entertaining my in-laws while they stay here. I don’t want to play host to…

Oh, I get what you’re saying.:smiley:

All I said in this thread was it freaked me out. I do not believe in ghosts, goblins, gods, santa clause, nor the easter bunny.

The Great Pumpkin is an entirely different matter. :stuck_out_tongue:

Ok, it’s time for some citation.
