this happened to me a little over a year and a half ago, but i've only told this to my chic and now, NT. it was a sunday night and i lied down to catch some Zzz's cause i had to be at work early the next morning. i was in bed alone, the room was dark except for the flickering light from the t.v. onto wall of the hall in front of the open bedroom door. on the adjacent wall to the bedroom door is the master bathroom which was also open, so of course the lights were out in there too.
i have strange habits while i sleep. i toss and turn every 2 to 3 hours, i laugh at stuff in my dreams, there's the occasional nut scratching, the accidental flatulence, etc. the one thing i do now that i didn't start doing until about 5 or 6 years ago was awaken from my sleep, look around the bedroom at any open door way, notice no one is there, then go back to sleep.
well this night, i awoken and figured a few hours had past because now the hall way was dark and there was no sound or light coming from the living room, so i assumed my girl was behind me in bed asleep now. i remember i was lying on my left side and noticed a white org about four or five feet above me just over my feet. it moved away from me like i startled it when i woke up. it then rapidly moved to it's right, ducked under the open bathroom doorway and shot up into the bathroom ceiling. when it went into the ceiling, the orb lit up the ceiling in a vibrant white light that seemed to pulsate as the orb entered it (i can only liken it to MJ's billie jean video where he steps on the sidewalk and the blocks lit up, and as he steps off, they darken and go back to normal).
the orb was maybe an inch or two in diameter, that i could see. while in the bedroom, it was bright enough to be seen in the dark room, but it didn't illuminate the walls or ceiling, if that makes sense. after seeing it disappear into the bathroom ceiling, i remember thinking that it was going to pay a visit to my upstairs neighbor.
my conflict with this is, i can't help but to think this was just some elaborate dream. i didn't bother to get out of bed to examine the sighting cause i didn't want to miss out on sleep so i could be fresh for work the next morning, i never even woke up my girl to see if she saw the same thing, i totally reacted like it was a normal occurrence and just went back to sleep, like i was in a trance or something.
there are a couple of reasons why i don't think it was a dream. one reason being, this would have been the first dream i've ever had that i dreamt that i woke up, experienced a short dream, and then went back to sleep in the same dream. lol
