This isn't embarrassing, but dangerous. I've fallen asleep driving. Once I sat through 2 light cycles till someone banged on my windows and woke me up telling me they called an ambulance so I just took off and went home. Now if I'm sleepy at all I have someone else drive while I sleep to get to an appointment. I actually fell asleep writing this

I had to go to a work meeting out of town. I dozed a lot during the first speech. The second speech was after lunch and it was an ad on speech about staying awake during a presentation! So embarrassing! I also fell asleep during a NASCAR race, in the pits, at the smallest (loudest) track. After about 3 hours of that engine roar and no place to sit I was about to cry. Then it happened. A bad wreck that shut it all down. Finally some relief from the noise. I found the drivers tent, pulled 3 folding chairs together and took about a 30 minute power nap. Attending that race was a really cool experience for about 10 minutes. My friends and family are used to it now and expect me to fall asleep on road trips no matter how long.

For some of us falling asleep just happens and we have no control over it. I used to be talking to someone like my daughter and fall asleep talking to her and I can remember saying some very incoherent things like the red train just flew by and I have to go wash it but it just turned into a fire truck going by and then wake up to see her looking at me very concerned. Sleep dreams can last for days at a time, for me it was 3 days long at times.
