I've never slept more than 12 hours straight, even when very sick.

4. Yeah...me too. Only I'm terrified
when I wake up, Bush* will come popping out of my shower, as in the infamous dream sequence in DALLAS.


EWWWWW

2. 26 hours
I flew home from Japan to LA and I was so excited because I got to relive the same day because there is that much time difference. Well I was so tired... I got home and said I was going to take a nap and woke up 26 hours later. So I had the chance in life to relive a day and I slept through it!

3. My first trip to Europe
the plane arrived about 7am, I got to the hotel around 9, and waited a couple of hours in the lobby for my room to be ready. Of course I'd barely slept on the plane, so I decided to nap for a couple of hours before doing sightseeing. I set my alarm for 3pm. Well, it never went off, and when I woke up it was midnight. Damn! My first day in England gone, like that.

So I got up, took a shower, read a little, then went back to bed about 3am, and didn't bother to try setting the alarm clock again, nor did I leave a wake-up call with the front desk, because surely I'd wake up at a decent time in the morning.

When I rolled over and looked at the clock the next "morning", it was 3pm. The good thing was that I was more rested than I'd been in a long time. But I'd lost nearly two days of the vacation.

6. If I sleep more than 10 I feel more tired when I finally get up
