I’ve heard directly and indirectly that a lot of people didn’t sleep well last night and feel tired and burned out today. How you guys feelin’ today? ---

I was four beers in at the start of the debate. I don’t remember going to sleep, but I remember my 3 trips to pee overnight. On two of my three trips, our old dog Loki decided she wanted out when I returned to bed. ---

I had a cold coming on yesterday but slept OK. Feeling similarly bleh today. more tired than sick. What was special about yesterday that causes you (OP) to expect there’s a pattern to be seen? ---

After the debate, I went to bed, had trouble falling asleep, then slept till 5, got up to pee and could not go back to sleep again. ---

I watched two episodes of _Veep_ as a chaser and slept fine. Sometimes laughter really is the best medicine. ---

I find paying no attention to any sort of news after about 5pm greatly improves my life. You ought to try it. ---

The usual 4-5 hours, but that had nothing to do with the debate, just my usual insomnia. ---

Eh, I slept. All I have is one vote to offer. Can’t change a damn thing in a red state. ---

I woke at 1 to go pee, and didn’t get back to sleep until 3 or so. Then I dreamed heavily but don’t remember what I dreamed. Got up at 4:30, as usual. My usual routine is to sleep until about 2 or 2:30, and then lie awake until 4:30. The Dope and some youtube videos help to pass the time until I get up. I suppose menopause is to blame. ---

I shivered the whole night through, but that’s what I get for sleeping in the pines where the sun never shines. ---

About as well as the night after November 8 2016. Which is to say, not well at all.
