Talking in sleep

So here I am, with my Compaq laptop on my lap, wanting to write something for the blog. I’ve been pretty “Subbu-ish” lately, not writing much on the blog but rather boring you with the boring videos shot from my SONY handycam. But well, its not just that, but I’ve been genuinely busy/ill/hung up with things. Oh well… not any more ( I hope )

There’s this tutorial that I’ve decided to write for MTNL customers again, for those who want wi-fi in their houses. Then there was this Motorola ROKR Z6 review too, but I’ll pass on that.

Anyway, coming to the title of this entry, does any one of you talk in your sleep ?

Not necessarily “in” your sleep, but even when someone has just woken you up ? Do you mumble some words ?

Well, have a look at this video.

Here’s the story:
My cousin, Mr. Sandesh ( :P ) works at a major BPO firm where they have a mainframes which have names. Now, one of them had problems a day prior to this video was shot. Now, he was the one to notify everyone that the mainframe was finally up. He was telling everyone, “Vince is up” ( Vince being the name of the mainframe ). Now, here we have him, the NEXT day, just waking up and mumbling “Vince is up” ?


He himself took 2 hours to realize he was mumbling that.

Now, this isn’t the first instance of him mumbling. In the past, he recounts saying “Elephant aaya, elephant aaya” when his wife tries to wake him up ( =)) ).

Not only him, but I’ve seen several other people mumbling right when they get up. My grandfather has at times gotten up saying “Out.. out” ( :-?? )

Now, why exactly does this happen ? Are these the thoughts that stay in the head ? Are we, in our sleep, still living in the past ?

What are your views ?

    very funny bro. but whats with the elephant aaya thing.
    just as i write this, my cousin brother sleeping on the bed just next to my comp table does this sleep talk every single day. first when he used to talk in the middle of the night i used to get scared, but now its habitual.

    Well Apparently my sister says I talk in sleep, particular when someone enters my room… but I haven’t got the faintest idea as to what I say, coz the moment I’m up, I forget everything! Go figure :-?
