The lady sleeping next to me at this very moment is having a nightmare. Should I wake her?
The lady sleeping next to me at this very moment is having a nightmare. Or so I think. You see, she is kicking me. Hard. She has been doing this for a while now. I’ve been kicked in both lower legs, upper legs, knees and yes, even there. She is also ferociously clutching my hand, which she grabbed with astonishing accuracy without opening her but very well my eyes. She is hurting me. Oh sweet cherries on a tree is she hurting me. First she ate my dinner, then she drank my vodka and now she’s grabbing my hand. It must be some kind of nightmare. She also left the window open and I’m freezing, unable to close it while being held, her back turned to me, kicking me out from under the tiny blanket we share. You’d think a person a third my size would be fine with at most half a blanket but you’d be wrong. Perhaps she’s trying to muffle her snoring. She’s nice, you know.
The lady sleeping next to me at this very moment has a mean left hook. She can be mad and dreadful and deplorable and rotten, sick, and sad and nasty and unbearable and hateful, vile, and blue when she doesn’t get her rest. I assure you she's very sweet otherwise.
The lady sleeping next to me at this very moment is having a nightmare. And so am I. Should I wake her?
Hurry, the battery on this iphone is going south.

I'm going to say yes, wake her.
And get a bigger blanket.

I'm a little flummoxed by your question. Can't you just get out of bed without waking her? If not, I'd wake her at least momentarily to extricate myself.

Wake her. She's having a nightmare. She'd like to be done with it.

Or she may be just seeing how many times she can kick you without you having to consult your iphone for help in dealing with this problem.

Get out of bed, but don't forget to tweet and update your Facebook status to reflect this.

If you were gay, it'd just be a man kicking you instead.
