I get that feeling when I sleep too much.
I think it happens when you wake up quickly from deep sleep instead of slowly coming out of it.

Yep, wake up and you don't know what time it is, if it's morning or what.

I hate that.

Once I had an entire conversation with my sister about something important, and I couldn't even remember if it was a dream or not, or what it was about for that matter.

What's great is if you sleep for several hours and wake up fairly late at night after some dream. Disorientation 4 teh win.

Back in HS days, I once woke up from a nap and I saw that the clock read 7:00. I was like, "$hit! I am late for school!" and ran to the bathroom to take a shower. My mom asked me what I am doing and rolled her eyes when I told her the reason. She just said "Come eat dinner" :(

HOLY CRAP I DID THAT TOO!!!
When you're young and dont normally take naps it screws up your whole day.

Now I do it sometimes on long weekends.
I turn off all the clocks in the house, including Windows, and just nap and game at my leisure. Its kind of a fun twilight zone feeling.

It was even more fun when I was waaaaay up north one year and we got 23 hours of sunlight in the summer. Total head trip. You can actually go for two whole days and feel just fine.

Thats how I've felt all day, I've been on cold medicine all week and on top of it my ears are clogged and I lost my voice. I drug myself to the drugstore to get some stuff and it really felt like a strange dream world.
