SEAN: What????
SEAN: Who are you with???
SEAN: Where are you???
Huh? These texts were highly confusing. It was 3am on a work night, wouldn't Sean know I was at home sleeping? Why did he sound so panicked? What did he mean, "Where was I?" It was all very strange.
And then as I stared at my phone, I began reading the texts more carefully and discovered that there were some texts before those that I hadn't read yet. I was shocked at what I saw. According to my text history, Sean had texted me at 2:45 am with this:
"Leaving venue, what are you doing?"
To which I responded at 2:46am,
"Oh not too much. Just hanging out playing cards with the boys."
HUH?!?? WHAT??!!?? Why would I have said that??? When did I say that?? No wonder he was confused!!
I picked up the phone and called Sean. Naturally, he was baffled and worried as to why I would be spending the early morning hours (2 hours before my alarm went off to go teach) playing cards with an unnamed group of gentlemen. I sat there and explained what had happened... that I had just woken up and seen that I sent that text and that I had no recollection of typing it whatsoever... And that NO I wasn't playing cards with "the boys" but was, in fact, in a deep sleep and still very, very tired.
After a few minutes of trying to figure out what had just happened, we came to understand that I had sleep texted. Some people walk in their sleep... I apparently text in my sleep . And yes, that is terrifying. My first thought was "who else have I texted in my sleep? What did I say??" Then those thoughts were immediately followed with,"Well done, unconscious Mae Mae. You spelled everything correctly. You even used punctuation. Impressive."
So if you know me in real life, the next time you see me doing this:
Beware.
I could be sleeping.
Creepy.

That's hilarious! I sleep Facebook apparently. Maybe we should move our phones out of arms reach while we sleep!
This story gets me every time. I love it.
I've done that as well! But without the punctuation... that is impressive!
Wow! I have never heard of that before. I am impressed!! Actually, I am a worrier and I would have been panicked if was receiving those texts at that time. LOL! Stacie xo
Oh my! This made me laugh so hard, simply because I'm picturing your poor confused husband...hilarious! And that's some serious talent you've got there.
Oh that is so funny!! Love it! xo Heather
hahah that is so awesome mary susan!!!
seriously I laughed out loud at this! How funny!
haha! Oh my word! that's hilarious. Well you're actually lucky...I know someone who is a sleep driver!
This is too funny!! I'll hold phone conversations in my sleep sometimes.. get it from my mom- we've gotten her to sign documents and help us w/ our homework when we were little in her sleep haha :)
ahh hahahahha that's so creepy!
That is too hilarious! I've done similar things before but can usually have some memory of doing it and it's always true things I text... not random stuff!
Hahaha that is awesome!
Hahahahaha this is hilaaaaaaarious!!!
HAHAHA! Maybe that's what you were doing when you were sleeping... Playing cards. LOL. You should probably lock your phone in a drawer at night. ;) xoxo
LOL
<3 this post!
Hahaha this is awesome! I'm cracking up, because I do the same thing! That's why the first thing I do when I wake up is check my texts to make sure I didn't get myself in any trouble over night lol!
xo
lol! I am a sleep texter too, I had to start turning my phone completely off at night, especially if I took benadryl! Glad I ran across your blog, new follower!!
holy cowbells. this is the craziest thing i've ever heard! omg! poor shug. no wonder he was freaked out. hahaha.
I have sleep texted before! OMG it's the strangest thing....LOL I also sleep eat....and THAT"S no good! I would rather sleep text ANYDAY over sleep eating and finding candybar wrappers in the bed with me when I wake up...ugggh!
Hahaha that is so awesome!! I've been so afraid I would do that. I've dreamed I've texted someone something crazy and then woke up and checked my phone to make sure I didn't. I haven't yet! *phew* lol
I am glad I'm not the only one!! I talk in my sleep, text and have even answered the phone before. Apparently I can carry on a decent conversation because I am truly awake and realize that I'm on the phone. Sometimes I think I have instagrammed in my sleep, lol. I have scrolled through and a pic looked familiar but was posted when I know I was asleep. What's next? Blogging in my sleep, oh boy.
OMG hilarious! I agree impressive! Visiting from The Foley Fam giveaway. Love you already. :)

That is amazing and the name of your movie of the week or book "I am . . . the Sleep Texter."
Bahahaha, I've actually done this before too & freaked out my husband (whom was my fiance at the time) with a similar text. Although, I still have no recollection of sending it. Whoops. Maybe it's a new generational thing. Sleep walking & talking replaced with sleep texting.
ps. I also eat in my sleep. Weird I know. It's even weirder when I cook something like a frozen pizza & never "wake up" during the process. It's actually kind of sad, considering the only way I know I do this - is because of the food on my bedside table in the mornings. My husband didn't believe me until we got married.
