Call Me (Past Conjugations)

Question

So I'm starting to get confused with "llamarse" and how to correctly conjugate it. I was trying to say "I was sleeping when you called me yesterday" but I wasn't sure if saying "cuando me llamaste" was the right way or if it was something different.

---

Actually, along those same lines, would it be better to say "estaba durmiendo" or just "dormía"?

Perfect

Very little difference...it might be regional, I would probably say: estaba durmiendo.

Good attempts

Remember you are using llamar here, llamarse = to be named

me llamo pepa. My name is pepa.

Te llamo. I call you. this is the verb llamar a alguien, to call somebody.
