With a nose like that, it's hard to believe he can roll over in bed without hitting a wall...

On a similar note, a couple of years ago I was staying at a friend's house, got up in the middle of the night, drained the tank and headed back to bed.

It was PITCH BLACK, like couldn't see my hand in front of my face type black.

I went to sit down on the bed, and in the process, bent forward while descending.  The bridge of my nose, on the meaty part right between the eyes met the perfect 90 degree edge of the dresser in an incredible thud.

I saw light, so I headed back to the bathroom.  I turned on the light to see my face streaming with blood.  I cleaned it off and found a gauze pad which I managed to tape over it to stop the bleeding.

Everybody picked on me for my "third eye", but I didn't get stitches :-)

It sucked :-)

I don't know if it's that weird guys.  This stuff is pretty regular in our house.

Stumpy polished off a box of Animal Crackers in his sleep last night!

LOL!!!

Paul talks in his sleep (so does Renee for that matter), but fortunately he doesn't walk in his sleep anymore.

(I'm going to get in soooo much trouble for this and risk losing my flower privledges but here goes...)

Stumpy is a regular sleepwalker/talker.  

One night (before he ever raced) he jumped up out of bed, flung open the curtains and yelled, "The Suzukis are coming to the pits!!!!"

Of course, it was just the garbage man that he was waving to and giving the thumbs-up sign to like crazy.  The poor guy finally just waved back.  

Don't you think that it's weird that Stumpy thought a garbage truck was "The Suzukis"?   ;D

My wife says I talk about racing in my sleep.  Mostly mumbles, but she occasionally hears things like, "We've got thirty minutes.  We can fix it. Go borrow a master cylinder," or "That was third call, get the warmers off!"

Sick...

LOL!!!!  

When Paul was young he used to sleep walk a lot according to his mom and dad.....  Do you remember the kitchen chairs that you could pop the seat out of?  Well when Paul was about 6 years old, he walked out of his bedroom, to the kitchen, lifted one of the seats, and proceeded to 'drain the main' so to speak.  Another time, he mistaked the closet for the bathroom too.  

Needless to say, his mother became a light sleeper, making sure to direct him to the bathroom if needed.  Thank goodness Renee only talks in her sleep.
