sleep talking
there's been so many times when i've been talking on the phone to my boyfriend late at night when he falls asleep. but he'll be kinda awake, ya know? and quite often, he blurts out the most random things that i laugh at hahaha, but he doesn't even know he says. if i kind of play along with it, he'll keep talking, but if im like ....what??, it's like he snaps out of it, but doesn't remember saying anything. i've caught myself doing that before too, when i was extremely tired on the phone and basically half asleep. i was just wondering if anyone can explain what exactly causes that? like i specifically remember one time when i was zoned out like that and i said "i need some batteries." where that came from, i dont know haha. i dunno, it's kind of interesting, and i just want someone to kind of elaborate if they know what they're talking about.

Like headoverheals, I've done this before too. Before I tell you what I think it is (I could be wrong, after all I'm not a doctor) I've actually used to hide my money in strange places and my ex-wife would ask me were I'd put it and I'd tell her the exact spot. I wouldn't remember until I went to look and she'd tell me I told her.
So, if you wanted to be evil, you could certainly ask certain questions and more than likely get an honest answer. Although, that would be morally wrong in my opinion.
Your subconscious mind comes into play during sleep and during 'stage one of sleep' your conscious mind slowly relaxes and your subconscious takes over.
What is probably happening here is both are awake at the same time. The subconscious seems more dominant because sentences do not make sense, at least not right away.
You probably associate batteries with being energized and awake, therefore you were tired and instead of saying you were tired your subconscious said you needed batteries. It makes perfect sense to me.
I think we all do this, because it's easier for us to remember actions than the meaning of words. You probably remember as a kid taking a toy that was dead and putting fresh batteries in, after you did the toy became alive. So, you associate batteries with energy and being awake.

I've done that soo many times when I'm on the phone with my boyfriend! It will be late at night, and apparently I keep up a random conversation. I'll wake up in the morning never remembering hanging up with him or sometimes even talking to him. If it's the same situation, it might be because he's just really tired, and the need for sleep gets to him, and he can't control what he says. When you zoned out, were you thinking about batteries? I wouldn't think so, but your mind can be completely random like that. I was complaining that I wanted chapstick one night!
Hope that helped
