Speaking of sleep deprivation, what's the....

What's the weirdest sleep deprived incident you've experienced? 

Me?  I ran into a door.  Not the front, but the edge.  I was running.  It effing hurt bad.

I woke DH to prep a bottle when DS was 3 weeks old, his response was "just change the woodchips in the cage"....we don't and never have owned any pet that needed woodchips.

I put the milk on top of the fridge and the box of cereal in the fridge.

Just yesterday I put the coffee pot in the freezer and tried to put the milk in the coffee pot's place in the coffee maker. 

And got pissed b/c it wouldn't fit.

I did that when i was really sick with the flu about 10 yrs ago. I made myself a cup of tea and I put the milk in the cupboard and the sugar in the fridge. Then the next day i went to make myself a cup of tea and found the sugar in the fridge and the spoiled milk in the cupboard (vomit)

I have one like this. I responded to my DD crying in her crib when she was ~6 months old and found her covered in vomit and still vomiting. I called for my Hto come help. He stumbles in, looks around, and says "Ok, I'll get the incentive spirometer!" the walks back out. We're both nurses, and I guess he was dreaming about work.

 Also, I've gone to the bathroom and pee'd without pulling my underwear down. More than once.

When I was in dental school I left my cell phone in the freezer once.

Also in dental school I once fell asleep while driving.  That's not funny, but it does indicate (obviously) how debilitating sleep deprivation can be and from then on I got someone to drive me to school anytime I did more than one all-nighter in a row.

When I get sleep deprived, I actually sleep walk.

It happened when I was about 10 and then again in basic training. It was ground for discharge but I made my battle buddy keep my secret.

I've somehow opened a door into my head.

I've made coffee with no water, I was VERY confused when the pot was empty after hearing it gurgle. 

I've done the ol' not put the pot underneath & started brewing on one of those coffee pots that you have to have the pot in or it won't leave the filter.  (did that make sense?  LOL)  Anyway, as soon as I fugured it out & put the pot under, all the coffee went into the pot.  However, it was mostly grounds because it had brewed over the filter.  Blech.  Chunky coffee.

I poured formula in my coffee and coffee into the bottle (a la Look Who's Talking). Very glad I sipped my coffee first and went "wait..what the..."

Ohhhh.  Formula isn't the morning pick-me-up you were looking for.

I was making spaghetti for dinner one night and went to drain the noodles in the colander ... well, I took the colander down the sink and dumped the whole pot of noodles down the garbage disposal. I noticed halfway through what I was doing and started yelling, "What am I doing?!?!" But I didn't stop ... just kept on pouring noodles down the drain.
