I'm really bored and can't fall asleep. And there's no one home to chat with since its a national drinking holiday. I downloaded a bunch of music. I could read. I really don't want to get out of bed. I feel kinda moody.
Anyway, why are YOU up late?

I never sleep. When it's late, I hang suspended from the ceiling, like a bat.

I'm just up. I just have strange sleeping hours.

I am awake until around 2 or 3am usually and then I get up around 7.30am. I figure that when my time comes I'd have only slept for about 20% of my life rather than 33%, however, I'd have been grumpy for about 79.6% of it due to sleep deprivation.

Insomnia's a madam and morning came too early today.

I go to bed by 9 or 10--sometimes earlier.
I'm an uncool kid.

Experts sleep researchers divide human beings into two different categories: the lark, those who rise early and go to sleep early and the owls, they prefer to stay up late at night and sleep late in the morning.
I am an owl but I have to wake up early, so as Smokester , I am sometimes grumpy...

yeah, insomnia is a real bugger. i usually don't get to sleep 'till around 1:00 a.m., wake up around 4:30 - 5:30, toss and turn 'till about 7, then get up, then spend the day tired.

Me too.

Some nights I want to go to sleep but my body doesn't wanna. Like tonight.

I catnap, 2 hours of sleep in a row is rare. Definitely a night owl.

I have a routine now, but it's stilll a bit squirrely. And I am up entirely too early, the kids sleep in though. That's how I've made it

And it's not like I can't stay up late anymore, but I hit 1 a.m. and it's over for me, I am actually nodding in and out. So.. still a cool insomniac kid? Maybe.

I helped a friend clean up after a 23 person seder. My hands are pruny from three hours of non stop dishwashing. I could do this as a career, but I'm so wound up I can't sleep. Somehow, I don't feel cool.

There was a period in my life which lasted years during which, if it was past 2 in the morning, I would simply stay up all night and go to work or whatever and then go to bed the following night. Of course, most of this behavior was alcohol and drug-fueled.
Since the mid 1990's I tend to go to bed fairly early and get up really early. It is now around 4:00 in the morning.

6pairsofshoes · « **Reply #14 on:** March 31, 2013, 04:36:47 PM »

I've had periods where I'd get up around noon and stay up until around 6 a.m. writing. No substances involved, just convenience.

Autumn · « **Reply #15 on:** April 05, 2013, 12:15:56 AM »

I can't sleep. Don't feel like reading. Kinda feel like crying though.

Dead tired, not sleeping. glarg

Autumn · « **Reply #17 on:** April 05, 2013, 12:31:26 AM »

Same here.

8ullfrog · « **Reply #18 on:** April 05, 2013, 12:36:08 AM »

Ever consider loading the poo manager into the oven?

Autumn · « **Reply #19 on:** April 05, 2013, 01:15:56 AM »

I've considered loading myself...

8ullfrog · « **Reply #20 on:** April 05, 2013, 01:30:53 AM »

Nah, you'll never level up unless you kill OTHER PEOPLE. Like my hero, the crimson fuckr.

6pairsofshoes · « **Reply #21 on:** April 05, 2013, 03:16:15 AM »

better, methinks, to dance it away:

Autumn · « **Reply #22 on:** April 05, 2013, 07:45:54 PM »

I don't like to dance. Weird, I know.

8ullfrog · « **Reply #23 on:** April 05, 2013, 10:26:36 PM »

Eh, it's good to move. I hadn't realized how stiff and decrepit I'd become until I watched my roommate trying to help me cleaning the fridge. He was just sitting on the floor and was winded. I was like "HOLY poo I do not want to be like that".

I don't know where my DDR mat is though, so no dancing for me.

6pairsofshoes · « **Reply #24 on:** April 05, 2013, 10:32:10 PM »

walking for an hour up and down hills works a treat.

if that's not an option, you can always climb stairs. anything to keep moving.

8ullfrog · « **Reply #25 on:** April 05, 2013, 10:36:04 PM »

LOL, did ten minutes of step to close out my wii fit session 6.

Autumn · « **Reply #26 on:** April 05, 2013, 10:56:48 PM »

I like walking, sometimes jogging. I just don't like to dance. It doesn't feel right to me. Swimming is the best motion for me. Oh, if I could live in water...

8ullfrog · « **Reply #27 on:** April 05, 2013, 11:07:04 PM »

It's your abs. I know this because after doing the bless'ed balance games on the wii my abs were like "golly you."

Autumn · « **Reply #28 on:** April 05, 2013, 11:21:48 PM »

I've very good core strength. I've even got good balance but I'm clumsy...
