2. In theory I should have sleep in the bank but I'm totally beat.
I sleep at odd hours and it wears a body down.

5. I don't know how you do it. Sleep deprivation makes me seriously
depressed!

7. I go between taking valerian to taking nothing.
Full moon keeps me awake, too. I think once we move out of this 2 room shithole, we'll both get some better sleep. Plus, I got rid of the dooshbag in my life, so I bet I start sleeping again.

9. I think that you have too much work as the "Official Lounge Hoser", so I thought...
that I'd help you in this area.

:D

10. Of course the bulk of my work
is as GoPsUx's nemesis. :P


I should appreciate all the help I can get! :silly: :hug:

11. I don't think that I could ever help you with your burden of being GoPsUx's nemesis...
he's such a nice guy. You're one tough Hoser to be able to do that part of your job, but I understand that a grrl's got to do what a grrl's got to do to maintain your title. (By the way, I read a thread earlier in the week questioning how you actually got your title. Apparently, you're being watched so that your title can be challenged, so make sure that you don't stray from the job description! :yoiks:)

:bounce:

8. I sleep so much...
Maybe 11 hours per day. It makes me happy, so I do it. I'm a huge fan of naps. I sleep for 5 hours, fuck around for a bit, take another nap. I'm glad I don't have a real job.

12. I can go toe-to-toe with someone ten years older than I am, because I've
been awake longer than they have. Does that count?

13. I work nights. I get isolated single days off.
And it's open warfare with everyone around me over sleep.
So I'm many, many hours behind.

14. amazingly, none....
Something strange is happening to my sleep cycle these days. I used to get by quite comfortably on five or six hours of sleep every night. These days I'm sleeping eight to ten hours most nights, and occasionally longer. I sleep deeply and comfortably, and wake refreshed. I'm having vivid dreams. This has been going on for the last year or so-- it's not a quirk of the weather or something. I'm sleeping LOTS more than I used to.

I live alone, so it's no worries going to bed as early as I want. I have to be up and out early three days a week, but I still go to bed early enough to get at LEAST eight hours of sleep, usually more.
