When I came home from my birthday dinner, my husband wasn't feeling well. Seems that he was coming down with the fall crud, which he promptly gave to me.
I got home from work Friday feeling like something the cat puked up. went to bed early, and woke up coughing my foolish head off at 1 AM. :(
Puleeeezze make my head stop pounding!

Good luck keeping your eyes open. I wish I could make mine shut. Good news, F1 is on speed tv!
Funny tho, around 2:00 at the office I could have taken a nap.

Enjoy the game Kris

I dont know if im going to enjoy it...stay up all night and then go stand in the rain to watch my son play ball??? If its not raining i will be ok...cranky, but ok. Hopefully will be able to sleep by about 1pm tomorrow. Then i will be having the same problem tomorrow night as you are having tonight. If i sleep longer than 3 hours, i wont be able to go back to sleep at night. Thats when the NyQuil comes in handy ;-)

Amen Sistah!
completely understand the tired, standing in the rain, cranky thing as well as the messed up sleep patterns.
My patterns are usually normal, but we all have times of waking up in the wee hours.........then winter comes and I get up at 2 AM to snow plow. No need in explaining how that messes with the sleep clock.

I just ate a yogurt to sooth my throat. maybe that, and the tylenol will let me get back to sleep soon.

Don't forget to tell us how your son's game goes!

Made the mistake of listening to The Black Keys-Attack and Release before I went to bed. It is so fricken good I can't sleep now. Too pumped up and I have to be up at 8:30. I just popped a couple Tylenol PM's, maybe that will help.

This is the first night I haven't been able to sleep since I saw this thread, so I thought I'd post in it. quarter to five... and I've nodded off a bit, but not for long.

I'd like to be asleep, but it just hasn't happened yet. Good thing I don't have to be at work in a couple hours! Yay Columbus day.

not really insomniac...but...

I seem to be ready for sleep early..these last 5 years or so, but often get up early, sometimes for online work most of time cuz I like early mornings....occasionally a tv program...used to work third shift for a few years, but now I get in jogging PT in early AM hours.
*Did have problems when on third shift...my liking to early AM started long ago...just couldn't get to sleep till late mornings or afternoons...
A real issue when forced to be in well lit room and occasionally having to visit somewhat noisy computer room(s) then....

Just got an email from my colleague in Shanghai. It's too late for him, he's gone to bed.

So, if we ski near the speed of light, doesn't time slow down?

Time is relative, isn't it?
