The Blood-Out: Time to Freeze It then Melt it!

[Krisan Thyme]

This. Except when I wake up, I'm always thirsty, so I have to stumble around for a drink.

I don't even get up to pee in the middle of the night, much less get up to drink anything. I can't be arsed. (And yes, I have an excellent bladder before anyone asks, I can hold it forever - even while asleep.)

This is interesting. What age is he?

My ex was a little bit like this.. He never slept more than four hours at a time on average, and he was never tired that I could tell. Kinda drove me crazy. (Among other things..)

Haha I thought you were a bit older since you liked RE3 so much.

Also yeah, I was waking up at 6:30 am every day at 14 except for the summer. Cause I was all, eff waking up early in the summer.

That doesn't sound healthy lol.

My friend did this not too long ago.. except he DID crash. He came out of it okay, but he gave me a terrible scare. I don't know what I'd have done if anything had happened to him.. You best be careful out there when you're driving too, I'mma get mad if you get yourself hurt.

When my son was first born, I was able to take three days off. Then I had to go right back to work. Of course, this was when I was doing 5AM and 6AM shifts, so I was kind of tired. For the first month after he was born, for some reason my boss thought it would be a great idea to give me split days off. So I would work for three days, have one day off, work for a couple of days, have one day off, work for five days, have one day off. Repeat all month. Up pretty much all day with kiddo, who would only nap for thirty minutes or so at a time, and I was trying to help out my girlfriend as well by keeping the house clean, cooking for all of us, changing all of his diapers and whatnot. And, of course, being a new baby, up with him when he was crying during the night.

I was driving to work across down the parkway at 4:30AM, and was gonna grab a coffee 'cause I had gotten maybe five hours of sleep over the last three days. There was one pretty straight stretch, and I just... nodded off. Slowly started to veer to the left, and woke up at a forty-five degree angle, driving along the side of the ditch at about 80km/h. Managed to get back on the road without crashing, grabbed my coffee and chugged it in about ten seconds.

Never been more scared in my life.

I can easily stay in bed twelve to fourteen hours myself, and on a day where I have nothing going on.. I usually do just that, simply because I sleep so terribly as it is that it's nice to get every little bit in that I can. (Though in my experience, the extra sleep doesn't actually help..)

I'm passed right out for twelve hours at a time, sometimes.

If I don't have to get up and be somewhere (work, taking Dallas to daycare, appointment, etc), then I'll just sleep right on through. Doesn't matter how many alarms I set, I cannot wake up.

There was nothing healthy about him, believe you me.

Never been more scared in my life.

I'm glad you made it out of that one okay.. Scared the hell out of me when my friend crashed. He escaped death by a hair, let me tell you. He went off the road and past the railing, down a hill covered in trees and onto another road down below.. How he managed to miss the trees? No one knows. For all intents and purposes he shouldn't have been able to.. Everyone on the scene was shocked, and he was shaken up for a good long while after the event..

Alarms don't work on me I don't think. The fact I wake up so much makes it easy for me to check the time though, so it doesn't really matter.. And those raaaaaaare nights where I sleep the way I wish I always slept, I tend to wake up at a relatively reasonable hour.

Some people are just too lucky for their own good.

Extra sleep past the normal 6-9 is actually counterproductive, usually. When I sleep more than 8 or so, I get a headache and feel listless all day. WebMD agrees, but it also says I have cancer.

He's actually a stupidly amazing person, awesome in every way. He's inspiring, if not even sometimes annoying for being so great at.. stuff.

I believe this to be true actually. The sleeping longer than 6-9 hours being counterproductive part, that is. Not the part about you having cancer. Because I totally wouldn't know if you have cancer or not, probably.

Also, if I try to wallow in bed and sleep more I'll definitely get a headache. Once I'm up I'm staying up.

I can function for a few days on as much or as little sleep as I want, once the day gets started. I'm already irritable and cranky, so my lack of sleep is overshadowed by my normal personality. After three or four days of 2-4 hours of sleep, though, I start slowing down. I start getting lazy. I won't need sleep for another couple of days, but if there is something I want to have done, I'll need to get some.

Now I want some popcorn.

I'm technically not even allowed to eat popcorn.. And now I want popcorn too.
