I suck at going to bed...

[bicentennial_baby]

Really, I do. I need to be up at 8, and here I am, wide awake. Not insomnia, b/c I know if I actually went to bed, I'd pass out immediately, just chilling out and being awake. It's the point A to point B thing that I can't seem to get down.

Grrrr....

:hi:

1. uummm...

:spray:

There are just so many ways to respond to this...so many phrases I could pick on...awesome.

[bicentennial_baby]

5. My pleasure...

:rofl:

32. I was listening to my jazz station

on pandora and getting sleepy. Then I switched to a station that played Killing in the Name of. "F-- You I won't do what you tell me!" are not lyrics conducive to sleepy time.

I'm also realizing that your post wasn't that suggestive. I just really need to get laid soon.

[SeattleGirl]

2. I think you are my long lost sister, babykins.

I am the SAME way. :crazy:

[bicentennial_baby]

7. Whew! I'm not alone!

I'll be soooo ready for meeting my thesis adviser at 10, and then working all day... :rofl:

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

9. Worst thing I can say to myself is, "I need to go to bed by....."

because that guaran-damn-tees that that is the LAST thing I'll do! :rofl:

[bicentennial_baby]

10. Exactly! I do it every damn time too!

:rofl:

Tomorrow will be...interesting. And long.

[SeattleGirl]

17. Same thing with losing weight.

I never say, I need to go on a diet, anymore because the second I do, I want to eat everything in the house!

[pokerfan]

3. relax, you got almost ten hours

pop in a movie.

[bicentennial_baby]

4. You mean 6 and a half?

[pokerfan]

12. 9 and a half here

[DarkTirade]

6. I wouldn't know ANYTHING about that...

... except that I'm still up at 1:30 and I have to wake up in the morning... :P

[bicentennial_baby]

8. Good! We're in good company!

:toast:

[DarkTirade]

23. Not tomorrow morning...

I'm bad company on a GOOD morning... and by good morning, I mean afternoon. When I wake up. :P

[jonnyblitz]

11. i could go to bed at 3 and be up, wide awake, at 6.

it's the actually going to bed thing for me, too. if my "stash" runs out then i never sleep. :hi:

[bicentennial_baby]

13. That is part of my problem...

I slept awesome when J. was here last week. :D

I figure if I get there by 2:30, and re-set the alarm for 8:30, I'll be ok. I don't need a lot of time to get ready to put on jeans and a t and flip flops, pack my laptop and a notebook and drag my ass to the subway, which is 250 feet from my door. (Told ya the new place is better :D)

:hi:

[jonnyblitz]

16. that's covenient, the proximity of the subway,especially for

visitors. :D

[bicentennial_baby]

19. Indeedy!

And I mean literally 250 feet from a Red Line station. If I could learn to spit a little farther, I'd hit it! :D

And, it makes for kickass people watching from the porch that faces it. :D

[flvegan]

14. Totally with you.

I'm dealing with dogs, but I'm the same way. Something about the transition from "productivity" to "sleep" gets me every time.

[bicentennial_baby]

20. Ding! Exactly...

Not that I'm being super productive, but yes, you got it. :thumbsup:

[SarahB]

15. I'm the same way.

Part of why I plan on working nights again starting in another week. (Plus more money even though I get to drop 4 hours and I'll have four days OFF!) :D

[bicentennial_baby]

21. Nice! Sometimes I wish my school had 11 pm classes...

That would work so much better for me, seriously.

Yay for more $$! :bounce:

:loveya:

[cprompt]

18. im wierd

like that too. i run 90 to nothing almost everyday, literally people tell me all the time the don't know how I do what I do, but come 9PM, i get a bolt of energy and here I sit almost 1PM CST wired with a 7:30AM meeting.

[bicentennial_baby]

22. Yep...

I hear you. I go go go go...get tired, then BAM! I'm awake for the duration.

I think this thread is the beginning of the f'd up sleepers club! :D

[cprompt]

24. count me in

it's like i fell im going to miss something by sleeping. I don't know. The energizer bunny told me to slow down, I just can't

[texanwitch]

25. I have to be up a 4 am to take my father to the hospital for his surgery.

If I go to bed now I will be very sleepy when I get up.

I will sleep at the hospital.

[bicentennial_baby]

26. Good luck babe...

I'll keep you both in my thoughts. :hug:

[texanwitch]

28. Thanks.

Suppose to be day surgery, skin cancer.

At his age you never know.

I have my backback ready for whatever.

[jonnyblitz]

27. yeah I would stay up, too, if I were in your shoes.

I wish the best for you dad. :hi:

[texanwitch]

29. Thanks.

He is a tough old guy.

I picked on him today, told him he had something in common with John Mccain.

[jonnyblitz]

34. that's good to hear.

:D that he's a tough old guy, that is, NOT that he has something in common with John McCain.

[texanwitch]

37. My father has really nasty looking skin cancer on his face.

I am so glad that his getting his surgery.

It takes forever at the VA.

[VenusRising]

30. I do that all the time!

I even make it worse by taking a shower at night thinking it will take me less time to get ready in the morning, but really taking up more time before bed. :crazy:

But the big question is....How was that dinner you were going to make? The Italian Pot Roast looked amazing! :9

:hi:

[bicentennial_baby]

31. Oh! It was SO good!

We were both stuffed so fast, so we have tons of leftovers. It was just amazingly good. You should try it!

:hi:

[VenusRising]

33. I'm going to have to.

We love Italian cuisine around here, and they are always running roast specials at Kroger here, so I'm on it!

Glad it turned out. :D

[VenusRising]

35. Oh! Have you seen these mini pies cooked in jars yet?

The best part is they freeze! I'm so going to try this, too! :bounce:

[bicentennial_baby]
