While I was sleeping: Shopping sprees, sugar binges and other confessions of an Ambien zombie

My “wake-up call” actually came in the form of an early morning phone call — one of those dreaded warnings from the credit card company reporting suspicious charges.

"Ma'am, there was an unusually large charge placed on your credit card at 2 a.m. this morning."

"What?! That can't be!" I said. I mouthed "credit card fraud" to my husband as I reached for my purse to see if my card was missing.

"It was an online charge in the amount of $2,980 at Anthropologie.com," the credit card lady continued.

I froze. This was starting to sound ... familiar. That’s the catalog I flip through when I’m putting together my fantasy wardrobe.

1. Similar experiences

I lived alone and I kept finding dirty dishes every morning, even though I clean up and put away before bed, then there was missing food, unexpected weight gain and I had to accept that I was sleep walking/eating. More exercise helped it stop.

2. Must be a good feeling to solve the mystery and put an end to it /nt

3. I saw The Ambien Zombies at the Troubadour last week. They were pretty strong.
