Sexomniac Starts Support Site
One woman suffers from a weird disorder which turns her into a sex addict, but only when she’s sleeping. The disorder, known as sexsomnia, compels her to engage in sexual acts and touch herself while sleeping — but she remembers nothing the next day. (Not exactly sure how this is a problem yet – so far sounds like a good night of drinking.)
The condition is so rare that at first she struggled to convince anyone she had no control over it. She first discovered the disorder in 1999 when her ex boyfriend confronted her. She stated that: “Out of the blue one evening he asked me why I played with myself at night”. (You think he’d me more concerned if she didn’t play with herself at night.)
The woman sought help from numerous doctors and psychologists who were not able to help her since they had never heard of her condition. Doctors offered her muscle relaxers (naturally), but she didn’t want to spend the rest of her life on medication. So she set up her own website six years ago after doctors failed to work out what was wrong.
Don’t get too excited, it’s not that kind of site (too bad cuz she could have been turning lemons into million dollar lemonade). Instead she created a support site to find others who suffer from the condition. She further commented that “There are no official figures on how many people suffer from sexsomnia but I’ve spoken to hundreds of men and women from all walks of life with the same condition.” I smell a dating web site for sexomniacs not far off…
Last night I had the misfortune of going to see a comedy troupe perform. The only reason I agreed was because the friend that dragged me there lured me with the promise of dinner. Faced with the temptation of free food, I was defenseless. Yet, I don’t know why I succumbed to this since, having been in a comedy troupe myself, I know how dull they can be. The group I was in was two gays and two girls, we were all pretty dysfunctional and the “comedy” consisted mostly of inside jokes no one else ever got. Somehow we occasionally provoked a laugh, but mostly I thought it was pretty masturbatory.
Rehearsals were 
extremely chaotic and unnecessarily dramatic; I remember throwing a chair once, over what I couldn’t tell you. Here’s a pic of the old crew in “Alien Soap” from our show “Something Vulgar This Way Comes“. I’m the alien bride.
Last night I don’t think I made it through 20 mins. of the show before I was snoozing away, albeit uncomfortably. When I opened my eyes, I noticed the man sitting next to me also fast asleep. The ticket into this napfest was $15. The only possible excuse for participating in this is in support of a friend in the cast; which my friend had. I, on the other hand, did not, and so I went back to sleep until the end of the performance. Afterwards, it was proposed that we go dancing; laughable because my mind was then set on getting horizontal immediately. Suffice it to say, I went home.
People Who Snore Always Fall Asleep First
My mother has this fan which sounds like my cat Pickle Sub chewing on a plastic bag: one the most annoying sounds known to plague the earth; particularly at 5 am. I woke up 
repeatedly the past couple of nights I’ve been staying with my mom, poised to throw a pillow at the feline perpetrator (obviously oceans away). It’s weird how I can sleep through most loud noises: the television, music, the Dominicans in my neighborhood drinking and playing dominos until 4 in the morning…
However, give me a quiet, small noise: the fan whirring, a clock ticking, the hum of an old computer, and it keeps me up for hours! My only defense is to make a head 
sandwich with a couple of pillows.
It’s only been very recent that I’m able to fall asleep with the TV on. I don’t have a TV in my bedroom, like most. A lot of people prefer the white noise during sleep; that’s why so many people fall asleep when the TV is on regardless of whether or not they are attempting sleep.
If you’re used to sleeping with the TV on, why wouldn’t you fall asleep at random while viewing? Many studies now link sleep problems to the presence of a television set in the bedroom and studies show that sleeping with the TV on results in fitful sleep from the outside stimulus. I can vouch for this: Once when I fell asleep with the TV on, I dreamt I was eating a giant marshmallow… I think I was watching Willy Wonka. When I woke up, my pillow was gone.
