But only because I got up at 6 AM and stayed up for four hours.

I can sleep late in the morning today but Tuesday I have to get up an be on time for an appointment. And since I'm worried about what will happen with that, I probably won't sleep tomorrow night.

Story of my life - I have no built in schedule.

And sometimes it seems that way.

I sleep during the day when she's at work and I'm up when she gets home. However, part of the time I work a normal schedule and have to transition back to sleeping at night, which usually means I don't sleep much till I adjust. So sometimes I do go quite a long time with little or no sleep.

I know just what that's like. And I used to get called out to work for as long as I could keep going. I usually needed some sleep after about 36 hours.

Downers to sleep, uppers to stay awake, right?

Whatever, just don't forget to bring a towel.

I need to wake up to haul my ass across campus to class in five hours. But I'm stubborn.

About 5 years ago for me. There were days when I wouldn't even sleep.
