Sleep on

To sleep on someone means you don’t believe they’ll actually achieve something they said they would or will do. It’s basically someone calling you bluff on something you say you’ll do, but instead of them verbally calling you bluff, they’re thinking it. Its thinking that someone will stay stagnant in a journey, process, career, etc. It’s a lack of respect towards that person either because they haven’t done it before or because you don’t believe in them. Basically, if someone is sleeping on you, you’re not a threat nor respected by that person and this is a time to prove that person wrong.
The other day, I told someone I wanted to be an oscar nominated actress. She laughed in my face and said “yeah alright sure thatll happen”. I laughed and told her “don’t sleep on me”.

sleep paralysis

Medically, little is know of the cause of sleep paralysis. Experienced worldwide and throught history, SP occurs to otherwise normal people at the onset, or the end of REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. Simply stated, SP seems to be an experience opposite sleep walking. Rather than your body unconscincely moving mimicing a dream, your conscince mind will be rendered unable to move your body. A subject will suddenly become completely aware of his/her surroundings, but will be unable to move their body or even wake up. Hallucinations and intense fear accompany the experience, as subjects may scence an evil presence that often sits on the subject's chest and interferes with the ability to breathe normally. The physical form of the presence varies from time period and culture, older instances involved witches, or "hags" and many new cases involve aliens. These subjects will experience many of the stereotypical events of an alien abduction, such as paralysis, floating sensation, and auditory hallucinations. The event can last from several seconds, to several minutes, with the subject either falling deeper into sleep, or snaping out and waking. The experience usually leaves the subject confused and disoriented and often, even after waking, the subject believes the event to have been an actual experience. SP is not known to be harmfull, and paralysis has never been know to adversly effect invoulentary muscles such as heart or lungs, although an elevated heart rate may occur from the scence of fear. If you have experienced sleep paralysis, it is important to keep in mind that it is largely a dream. Any experiences that take place are created by your mind. Having a bit of knowledge of what is actually going on, often helps subjects to deal with it.
When I was younger, I believed that I was being abducted by space aliens. Now that I understand more, I realize that I was really only experiencing sleep paralysis.

Sleepyhead

One of the most amazing friends you will ever have. But dont expect to talk to them late at night, they like to go to bed around ten or so. Most of the time if you are talking to them they fall asleep. Even though they fall asleep a lot they are simply amazing. If you are lucky enough to have a sleepy head in your life, dont lose them. They are loyal, a great listener, and will do whatever it takes have to to make you happy.
I wish I had a sleepyhead as a friend.

Miguel decided he would rather sleep smile and complain about the TV being boring instead of retiring to his room and going to bed.
