View Full Version : I used to like sleep

At least i think i did...
when i was a little kid, i mean real little, my parents could move me from the couch to my crib, or my bed, and i wouldn't stir at all. I was like a cat. I'd fall asleep in odd positions and wouldn't budge until i woke up. And i wouldn't wake up unless i wanted to.
When i was in 4th or 5th grade, i would stay up reading until 1am. Eventually this turned into playing nintendo or watching tv until then. I'd sleep for 4 or 5 hours until it was time to go to school, then sleep in class. This lasted through high school.
Then i was working from 2pm to 10. i'd get home, eat, watch tv for a couple hours (the movie channels late at night...i think we all know what was on :wink: ) and then i'd go to bed and sleep until noon.
Then, i move out, down to arizona for school. my sleeping habits didn't change. up until midnight at the earliest and then out the door by 6:30am. Sometimes i'd snooze through class, other times, i relied on various amounts of caffine to keep me moving. STEP rolls around and i had no choice. Out the door by 5:45, get home at 7pm, study until sometimes 3am, catch 1-2hours of Z's and do it all over again, hoping i didn't fall asleep in class, or in my lunch, or under the car i was working on at work.
now, i don't end up going to bed until 11:30-midnight, roll around for about an hour and wake up and 7:40 (when either my bird, or the sun wakes me up) and leave for work, hoping no one notices i stroll in at 8:15. This keeps up all week. By the time Friday gets here, i just want to crawl in the trunk of a 745Li, curl up and sleep for awhile in the hopes that no one opens my casket and disturbs my cat nap. These days, the sound of a pin falling will wake me up.
And here i am, trying to get on a shift that runs from 6am to 7pm :? sure, it's only 3 days a week, but still. It's a 13 fucking hour shift for god's sake. Oh, and every 8 weeks, i'll have to work 6 days straight :?
anyone find it ironic that it's 3:15 am and i'm ranting about sleep? HA! I'll be the first ever documented zombie in another 2 years.
no wonder my fucking hair is falling out :roll:

I use to sleep 8 hrs every night. A normal night now is 11 or midnight to 6 am.. at work by 7. I think its a responsibilities thing. There is just never enough days in the week or time in the day.

I sleep like a baby.......used to have problems but got over them. I'm the exact opposite to you it seems.... :D
I go to bed around 11pm most nights (Mon-Thurs I mean) and get up at 6:30am for work.

Well at least now I don't feel so fucked up lol. I hardly ever sleep a wink... Stay up for 2 days and sleep the equivalent of less than half a normal sleep between the two days haha. I can hardly remember what day it is most of the time.

I used to HATE sleep as my parents forced me o have naps and sleep really early as I NEEDED 100% of 8 hours sleep before going to school. THey were really strickt about sleep and damn I hated it. Now that I am not forced by anyone, I like sleeping a lot!

i'll only be able to do that if i'm really active on friday and fatigue is already weighing heavily on me. Usually when i get fatigued, i feel it in the backs of my legs first. I'll get home gifuring i'll pass out about 9, but before i know it 11:30 is showing on the clock :?

I was never forced to sleep, I think thats my problem haha. I'd rather be doing something, anything, rather than wasting the day away unconcious. Ever since I was about 9 or 10, I've been staying up late as hell, then waking up after about 2 hours of sleep haha, and that's on a good day.

now that im working fulltime in the summer and have to get out of bed every day at a shocking 7am (yeah i know, i've got it easy :P ) i notice it helps to go to bed in time (before midnight for me). Normally, when i go to college and i usually dont have to get up very early, my sleeping pattern is VERY irregular, and very unhealthy, often staying up till almost morning to finish essays or something like that... i kinda like working in the middle of the night, too bad i won't be able to do it when i have a real job...

Hahaha, I never sleep. Go to bed at 3:30-4:00am and wake up at 6:30-7:00am, every single day, even on weekends. A few of those days I never even make it to sleep. My body is quite used to it now. Even with such a low amount of sleep, I am not hampered by fatigue. Ah the glory that is Insomnia.

Ihave no problems falling asleep,. I usually do so for about 8 hours daily (11pm-7am). If I don't get my sleep just one night I feel tired for the next few days, I'm lazy then and easily irritated.

Haha, nice.
Right now is a perfect example of how sometimes I never make it to sleep. It is 5:20am here is SoCal and I need to be at school in 2 hours (7:30-4:20). I never even thought about sleep. I've been sitting in front of the computer animating all night. For joy, for joy.

Do you have any time to exercise? Try exercising for a good 45-60 minutes then see how you feel.
I went jogging saturday night. legs are pretty sore, but i'm going to go out again pretty soon. I may be going bald, but i refuse to be fat and bald. It's bad enough i already double my g/f's weight :?

I used to like sleeping before too until I came to Jabbas World! :lol:
No but on a serious note I believe I am just like you but when my parents are around I get forced to sleep early which is around 11 pm. I guess its alright. I get around 6-7 hours of sleep on school days..not including the time I sleep in class. :mrgreen:

Sleep is like sex. Sleep is like making love to a beautiful woman. Sleep is king. Sleep is God.
When I was a kid I used to hate it, I was so full of energy that I hated going to sleep. I used to stay out until midnight, come home, sleep and couldnt wait to wake up go to school and go do my thing again...And I was fairly young. That was happening grade 3 on. Yes yes...I know young to stay out that late, but I always used to hang around my house and my parents knew that I was safe.
Right now I try to get as much sleep as possbile. But that doesnt happen. Odd day I let my self sleep till 1 in the afternoon but thats a rarity.
But there is nothing, nothing next to a good meal and a pussy that I like more then sleep.

blah to sleep, i can go 2 days easy with no sleep just have to remain active really dont need coffee or anything to keep me going and i dont get fatigued either.
when i was just on my short 8 day vac in Canada, i think i slept on average 2 or 3 hours a night maybe and i think im pushing it to be honest!!
if you look at alot of my posts, alot of times they are early morning, as im doing right now.
my gf has trouble sleeping, so she got some teas that seem to help a little. also found this link for those that need help to get to sleep!!

get married :lol:
...and have kids. Then you don't have to worry about sleeping, because you're not allowed to :lol:
Usually I wake at 5:20 am, get to work at 6:00 and bike home after 14:00. Then I release my wife from taking care of the kids. She sometimes goes shopping, but usually sits back and relaxes. I lay on the kids room floor and try to protect my eye glasses and my groin while the boys do surprise attacks and generally walk over me while playing. I close my eyes and might fall asleep for few seconds about ten to twenty times. Then I cheer up and we go out or do something else.
Boys eat their porridge at 19:00, the younger ones must be fed and the older one must be tied to the chair with cable ties. The younger boy goes to bed after 20:00 and the older guy follows him after 21:00. At about 22:00 they both are surely sleeping and parents time can begin. TV/movies/sex/reading/eating/etc. untill 23:30 and then to shower and to bed. I'll sleep quickly when I finally get the change, after 0:00. Then, it's morning again, unless another or both of the boys are sick or having nightmares :lol:
You just get used to it after about a year. :lol:
>jots down reasons 3478 and 3479 onto list of reasons not to have kids< :lol:
ehhhhhhhhh, i will get enough sleep when i die...

Can you remember me posting ages ago, maybe after the first child. I'm quite sure I encouraged everyone to have kids as soon as possible :lol:
Funny thing is, that I would still encourage to have kids, even though my life now is not the best possible.
I don't know if i was here for your first kid, so no..i don't remember :mrgreen:

Never tried masturbation before sleeping. Never felt like it.
