Your eyes drift separately and slowly you're hard to wake up.
-
Then there is REM sleep. Your brain is active as if you were awake,
-
your EEGs are similar to waking, paralyzed except for the eyes,
-
oh, men get erections and you have dreams.
-
One sleep researcher joked that these two are connected
-
because what happens is dreams fly around through the ether
-
and then their erections serve as antennas so you pick them up.
-
Don't write that down.
-
Why do we sleep and why don't we-- why aren't we always awake?
-
There's a couple of answers to this.
-
Probably the best answer is our body is worn out during the day
-
and sleep is necessary to put it back into shape.
