For our benefit, can you think of anything that might have triggered this - and going potty isn't the reason, on Ambien or not?

2. My wife occasionally take Ambien at home. No odd behavior, but the few times I've taken it (and then only 5mg), I've found the effect too long lasting - even after getting up in the morning. BTW, what dose did you take? I've been using 10mg of Sonata for the occasional night I have trouble getting to sleep, when waking in the middle of the night and not being able to get back to sleep, and for red-eye flights. It is only active about 4 hours so you can take it later or not knocked out after only sleeping 4 hours on a flight.
