Wakeup to no running apps, but there is one...

Hey all you power users, here is a totally weird event.
As usual I closed the lid on the MBA last night, and left it on the couch, as you do...
This morning I bring it over to the desk and plugin and open lid, only to see my previous nights desktop windows apps etc for about a full 2seconds, before my login from sleep kicks in.
That was a surprise as I count that as a security breach, my data was exposed for enough time to get something from it.
However, it gets worse.
On logging in I found that all the open apps I had had ceased to be open, crashed I presume.
There was no knowledge of a reboot, I mean it's not possible to reboot in sleep is it
But... on thinking, man oh man, where'd my code go!!! yes I've been relying on stable sleep for a few years now (doh), I open bbedit which had save my session and some unsaved code phew...
But then I go to open my Virtual Box, and it states that Debian is running. what?
So I shell into the virtual machine - sure enough Virtual Box machine is running and survived this catastrophic event. I am shelled in and all services are running so I proceed to let bbedit re-open session and sure enough docs fly open - some untitled ones too!
btw, there is no indication onthe Dock that I even have a Virtual machine running, only evidence I have is top:
23735- VirtualBoxVM 8.4 07:53:31 23/1 1 227 629 399M 20M 424M 552M
23733- VBoxSVC 0.4 14:27.01 12 1 103 129 1776K 13M 2688K 34M
23730- VBoxXPCOMIPC 0.0 03:22.53 1 0 19 38 200K 3300K 176K 17M
Finder must have crashed right?
97050 Finder 0.0 00:02.42 5 1 183 233 8188K 33M 27M 28M
well what ever happened this is a major problem right?
What else can I do to find the cause before I really do a reboot to help bug fix this?
Will re-check here from time to time for any tips on trouble shooting the issue.
Cheers

Here is the /var/system.log from the wakeup to suspicious crash/death notices...
cheers
