We're watching one of those new shitty Alvin and the Chipmunks cartoons because we're too fucking bored with everything else. Its just been a bad movie night.

Oh yeah in the past month my cousin was living with us because she got kicked out of her friends house, and now I understand why. We kicked her out tonight after history of stealing shit, not actually saving money, not bothering to clean up after herself, etc. Just so much shit. We told her it wasnt going to be a permanent stay and told her to save up so she can find her own place.

Good fucking riddance.
 
Right now I'm up madly early trying to 'reset' as I got sick of waking up in the afternoon over the last two weeks. I wouldn't mind if I could consistently go to bed at 5:30am and wake up at 2pm or something like that, but extra hours spent attempting to sleep usually come into play. At least I know my problem is some combo of slow metabolism and allergy/immune system activity. So my key to sleeping ok is to be poopin' erryday. Standard milk (not trim) gets my shit moving, or at least it should be. Probably haven't been eating enough for the amount of work my immune system's been doing. It's like an incinerator sometimes.

Yeah, if I could go to bed at 3am ish and wake up at 10-10:30 that would be great, but it never works like that. I end up staying up later and later every time. Going to have to stay up all night and day soon to reset I think.
 
Just dragged myself out of bed at 5 something PM. Went to bed at 10 am "last night"

i might pull an all nighter...it would be great if i could find some sudafed or something, then i could really enjoy the all nighter if i snorted it

Yep, I'm the same way barring any constraints imposed by my job.

One could argue that makes the job good for my health, and I partially accept that argument. The problem is I feel like I never have enough free time to do all the non-work things I want to do, so I usually stay up too late because the only way I can "have a life" is to stay up late.

This is why I hate working full-time, and will probably beg my boss to let me switch to part-time in the not-distant future. I need to find out if there's a better balance.

Yeah I feel the same with regards to working and also getting through everything that I want to. When I’m at work I get up at 6am, but sometimes I’ll be up until 12-1am. No ideal, but give me that extra time I need to keep my sanity.

I’ve been a night owl ever since I was around 9-10 though. I was massively into wrestling at that age and I would stay up from 1am to 4am to watch the pay per views. And then I’d have to get up for school the next day. I’m pretty good on functioning on 4-6 hours sleep. Though it probably isn’t doing my health any good.
 
I used to get up and function on limited sleep between the ages of 18 and 28, but it started to give me migraines which gradually got worse. Then I had the septal occluder operation which cured the migraines... and after that I was brilliant at just sleeping through my alarm. Now I work part time so my alarm is a little surprising again, but I'm great at pressing snooze.

After my reset yesterday I didn't sleep quite as well as I'd hoped, but I forced myself up before 10 hours had passed. Also took a shit and went for a decent walk. But I won a bottle of bourbon last weekend in a raffle so I might have to start on that and lightly mess things up. :tickled: Actually my main problem is that I'm living in a different city to my girlfriend for a few months, so there's a missing chunk of energy expenditure and excitement. Got 4 trips planned in the interim though.
 
i aim for at least 7 hours every night. i can get away with less for a bit but i just generally feel unhealthy when i do it. i'm good at staying asleep once i drift off thankfully, although initially getting to sleep can be a struggle sometimes.
 
I just woke up covered in sweat and piss residue on the verge of puking

Now this girl is trying to talk to me and i dont feel like talking even though im into her
 
Sitting outside sipping on some knob creek smoked maple bourbon a friend brought over for a cookout earlier. I admit idk shit about whiskey but it’s fairly nice. Watching my dog fuck off in the darkness.

Guess I got promoted at work last week. I’m supervisor of repairs over the rig and crane mat division whatever the fuck that means. Less hours and a fucking hiked up pay, at least. Maybe I can actually go fishing and get in the woods more often now.
