Sleep. It’s a beautiful thing, isn’t it? But really, honestly, who needs it? I thought I did, I indulged this fantasy of mine for as many as ten hours a night. But, since Friday, I have scaled back drastically, and have found new abilities in the playing of the Xbox, along with previously unimaginable spelling and typing errors.
From 7 AM Friday to 7 PM Sunday, I slept for 6 hours, 3 1/2 on Saturday morning (8-11:30) and 2 1/2 on Sunday morning (4:30-7) after a party. Then Sunday I went and played paintball, slept from 7 to 11 when I was called out for some Xboxing, going until 4. Same thing monday, except the sleep was only 9:30-10:30 and I’m still up (6:30 local time).
How long can I keep this up? Your guess is as good as mine.
How bad for me is this? Again, YGIAGAM.
Is there a point to this? Not in the least.
I had a really bad sleep last night. It sucks. I hope your sleeplessness isn’t as sucky as mine.
I stayed up til 6am playing Railroad Fricking Tycoon 2 Gold. I blame The History Channel, since I watched a show on the Trans-Siberian Railroad and all I could think was “MUST PLAY CHOO CHOO”.
I find reading the SDMB results in many sleepless nights.
I hardly ever have sleep problems, but last night (for reasons mysterious then and now) I simply could not fall asleep, even though I felt very tired and was not discernably anxious about anything. I finally managed to fall asleep around 5 am and then slept fitfully until 7:30. I’m so tired right now I feel like I’m nothing but eyeballs and typing fingers – everything else has dozed off and is numb. I have half a mind to sneak down to my car and take a nap.
I gave up sleeping right after my daughter was born. I’m thinking of trying to quit blinking. I miss too much.
Last January, as last semester came to an end and I desperately had to finish some assignments, I managed to sleep only 6 hours during an 84 hour period.
As the current semester comes to an end soon too, I will attempt to break this record. Maybe 10 hours of sleep in a 120 hour period would be a good aim.
