streams of random words

[Lizelle]

Not sure if this is the place to post because technically it's not a dream. Sometimes, as I'm falling asleep, waking up, or just daydreaming, I "hear" (in my head of course) a stream of nonsense. Phrases and sentences which are grammatically correct but which have no meaning together. For example:
"When you can't brush the plants, 20 feet above the curtain, there's no book that will suffice. Have an open drawer and trees will be the best thing for the party this afternoon."

[I just made that up looking out my window, hopefully you get the picture]

No visuals are associated with this. It's actually quite relaxing and I like to just be amused at the flow of nonsense.

Anyone else ever have this experience?

If anything, it might show the randomness of your mind and the stuff that you could be subconsciously thinking about or processing.
Try to remember whatever is said next time and write it down.  See if you can find any correlations between that and your waking life.

This reminds me, when my son was very young, he would sit up on his bed, completely asleep, and say stuff like that- with inflection as if it meant something.  Then he would go back to sleep, and the next day he would not remember any of it.

But just to add to what was said, I've read theories of this type of thing being one of the ways we index our memories.  Since we store our memories holographically, everything has to be cross-indexed to be stored in different places in an 'at the same time' manner.  So when you  start becoming aware of this process (hear the voice saying this, for example, or 'see' the bits of information, like snapshots) you perceive a holographic item sequentially, and it becomes nonsensical to the linear conscious mind.
Which is what, IMO the ancients called the "monkey mind".

I like this theory, it makes sense to me, anyway.

As I'm falling asleep my mind will create detailed scenarios involving random people and in the likely chance I snap out of it I forget everything about them... other than the fact that they weren't "my" thoughts.

I used to talk in my sleep too.  My friends & roommates thought it was hysterical. I'd almost forgotten! Maybe it's just internal now.
