Wow 100 hours a week,..what do you do??? The most I ever worked in a week is 66 hours back when I was a telemarketer...Monday through Friday 9AM-9PM and Saturdays from 9AM-3PM..I made enough money telemarketing over the summer so I had spending money the whole year in college...now I usually work 30something hours a week

Marines, in Ramadi, Iraq, but only for a few more months then I'm coming back

I will say however, more to the context of your original post...



you won't know you're asleep since it's physically impossible to be conciously aware of being unconscious.

Then how do you explain when you are dreaming and you realize it and conciously change the outcome.

Right, sorry. Didn't mean to insult you. ;-)

Not fair! Not enough choices!
What about:
- Powder day anxiety
- Dogs that lick your face
- spouses that er, uh, nevermind.
- I live behind the firehouse
- Bad ski dreams

I just had an anxiety nightmare that I was still in college and a whole bunch of stuff was due in a few hours...and I graduated more than 8 years ago..

It sounds like you miss college too much. Go back for another degree so you can re-live the excitement! :grin:

I have been sleep deprived for every single reason listed on this pole at one time or another.

I don't miss the academics..I miss getting drunk and stoned all the time..I can do that now without paying a zillion dollars a year..

the missing choice....

Honestly, for me it's a lack of skiing/snow-activitiy.

The only thing that ever prevents me from falling asleep is anxiety about unconciousness. I know that sounds wierd, but when I start thinking about how I wake up in the morning not remembering having fallen asleep, with a skewed sense of time for the period I was out, it makes me anxious about falling asleep. If I'm tired enough though, I want sleep enough that I look forward to it instead. Sometimes all it takes is a boring book.

Balls. Happening again. 2 hrs of sleep Friday night, 3 hrs Sat night, ~3 last night.

Road 150 miles over the weekend and didn't help. This sucks.

Damn dude, if I rode that much I'd be lucky if I didn't fall asleep before I even got back into the house. Sorry to hear about your returning issues, I'd be a zombie if it was me...

Marc : That's a major PIA . Is there a sleep lab program at your local hospital ? These medical pros can often diagnose and treat all kinds of sleep related issues . The program is usually an overnite observation with related monitoring and can often result in a positive intervention with the patient able to get relief WITHOUT pharmalogical intervention

Have you tried leaving the goat outside where it belongs?

It's mental images like that that keep me awake at night.

And not in a good way.
