    Parents yelling at each other and fighting, drunk husband opening the entrance door at 2 or 3 am and then keeping everyone awake until the sunlight, loud explosion at the nearby factory or whatever the hell it was and a small land shake after that, waking up in a strange basement and realizing it's not nightmare, nightmares of any kind, a distant friend calling at 3 am and keeping you on the phone bawling because her gf#35789 broke up with her when you have to get up at 5:30 and work 12+ (learned how to only allow certain ##s after hours really quick after that)), possibilities are endless

    I did wake up the other night because the cat peed on me. That was pretty bad.

    But warm, yes? :/

    I thought she was being cute, putting her warm paw on my side...then reality hit. It got cold quick.

    OMG...I can't imagine. That smell is awful too. I'd probably kill the cat.

    Cockroach to the face was the worst. I didn't sleep in that bed for 3 months like it mattered moving to the couch but it made me feel better. Centipede down my back was also a horrible feeling to wake up to. Nothing freaks me out like bugs crawling on my skin.

    I think the news of someone's death is probably the worse ever. Some of these others, like practical jokes and peeing animals warrant murder.

    I know that feeling. Not only half asleep but not sure how you're supposed to wake him up without making it worse. We used to leave the TV on as an immediate distraction and kind of brings you back to reality a little quicker.

    Weather Channel is a gift from the gods...tunes me right out and back to sleep and keeps him distracted. And the dog. He guffs about her licking him and nestling with him, but she calms him.

    hearing the sound of one of your children puking then splatter on the floor

    I am a HORRIBLY deep sleeper- until I hear the unmistakable sound of the "pre puke" a cat makes while they are coughing something up. "ugck ugck ugck- ugckkkkkkk splat"

    It wakes me up. Every.Single.Time.

    Understandable especially with how big some centipedes get.

    Being shaken and hearing, "Somebody just opened our front door."

    The cat gnawing on something (mouse???) beside the bed, the smell of skunk wafting in the window from outside, a child puking (days long gone, thank goodness), bad dream where I just stepped off a cliff.

    OP I take it you don't have kids? Once you do uninterrupted sleep becomes a distant memory...

    Yours must be young. I have 3 teenagers and I promise there is light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes it 2 in the afternoon before anyone is stirring and I'm not gonna lie, I like it.

    I would like it too! The oldest is 11 and I love how late he sleeps. The youngest is 1 so I have a while to go until I get to sleep late...

    True. We simply exhale from behind.
