I wish it happened more often. I don't usually remember my dreams, so a little fun would be very welcome
Have you ever woken up paralyzed from the neck down? It's part of the same type of problem, or it is one of the symptoms of that disorder (can't remember the name right now). It happens to me quite a bit. When I was a kid I saw this program that said it was because a ghost was sitting on you, scared me to death. It really is just normal for the body to be paralyzed during REM sleep and in some people they wake up while still paralyzed and have to wait before they get to move. It's pretty scary if you don't know what's happening.
