Weird Things That Really Happened

First Weird Thing
John stayed up really late last night to watch the national championship game. Sometime after he finally came to bed I heard him say, "Hey."
I wasn't sure if that was just a random exclamation or if he needed something, so I asked, "Do you need something?"
John: "Yeah, I need you to grill those things."
Me: "???"
John: "I need you to grill those things we skinned."
Me: "zzzzzz"
John: "zzzzzz"
Later in the afternoon when he finally woke up he had no recollection of this conversation.

Second Weird Thing
I was expecting a call from Ancient House this morning about volunteering this weekend. I was running and listening to an audio book. (I have taken note of the recommendations, but am currently listening to a random book I downloaded to test out how Georgia Download Destination works.) This audio book has jazzy music between the chapters. My phone plays jazzy music when it rings. The call came and I just listened to it ringing thinking it was the end of the chapter in my book! Then, when the book came back on and it wasn't a new chapter, I realized what happened. I called back, found out they do need me this weekend, and went back to listening to the book. The chapter ended after another minute or so, and the music that came on was totally the same riff that is my phone ring. Different instrument, but same riff, I kid you not.

yeah, John talks in his sleep. Once, I was walking out of my room at our old house, and he burst out of his room (literally as the door was closed) and starting jabbering on about something big or someone in his room. He kind of had a Kramer look with crazy hair and crazy eyes. It was very interesting as there wasn't anyone in his room and he didn't remember it.
