I don't make logical decisions when I'm half-asleep. In fact, logic doesn't seem to play a part in my thought process at all. I'm not sure how difficult it is to think "get one of the blankets from the stack on the end of the bed" when one wakes up cold in the middle of the night, but my sleepy solution is never that.

It's apparently to see how tight of a ball I can curl up into, like a pitiful little puppy huddled in a cold corner.

My conclusion is that I am an idiot. At least when mostly asleep.

The same thing happens to me when I half-wake up cold. I think part of it is that you are protecting yourself. You don't want to get up to get the blanket (even to just sit up and lean forward) because you have to get out of what little warmth you have to do that, and somehow that partial warmth you do have is something you cling to. Maybe it is some sort of protective device of nature, which perhaps presumes that one has nothing warmer to fetch readily?

That makes sense. :)

I do the same thing! I take no responsibility for my actions when half asleep.
