Not me. I just woke up from my afternoon nap and am thinking about supper in an hour or so. Hmmm, wonder if it's gonna storm since it's so dark outside....

It's 5:41 am here and I've been up for an hour. Always was an early riser and one of the first to get into work. Now with no job it's hard to change old ways. Anyways, a cup of coffee, GJ and the web... what else do you need to start the day!

Oddly enough, not only is it a full moon (which brings out the crazy in everyone,) but we have an odd occurrence, this night, as the moon's orbit is at it's closest point to the Earth during it's cycle.

I'm not making this up - can't remember the name for it, but it hasn't happened like this for 20 years. Hell, if you're up and there's no clouds out - go outside and look at it, the moon appears roughly 15% larger and brighter than any other full moon you've seen lately.

That's why I stayed the F home tonight. I see what the normal full moon does to people in the city - don't care to get caught up in the crack-smokin' full moon that's going on right now...

I've had tons of them lately with all the drama going on around here. On the plus side, I've been getting a lot accomplished.

I have a few random nights up. Last week was particularly bad as friday was the appointment with the tax man. I really stress over that and my mind goes over and over the what-ifs So I have to get up do ssomething to sidetrack my mind. Sometimes it's an hour ans sometimes its all night.

I used to have difficulty sleeping, but for the past month, as soon as 1:30AM hits, my vision starts getting blurry and as soon as I hit something soft(even a carpet), I am out.

I have a fair few sleepless nights as a side-effect of other things :(

If I really can't sleep, sometimes I'll stick the laptop on, do something semi-productive. Being in the UK, this is a good site to go on, since when I should be asleep, you lot are awake!

I don't sleep well due to chronic pain from a wreck. Really, I sleep whenever I can as 2 hours in a row is about the max I sleep before the pain wakes me. Sometimes I just can't sleep at all for a day or two so.....GJ and other boards of interest help me pass the time, especially at 2AM, 3AM, 4AM, 5AM..... That killer deal on Nicholson files last night was worth not sleeping! LOL

Congrats man. It won't change any time soon, I have a 9 month old that still doesn't sleep thru the night.

The sooner I go to bed, the sooner it's time to wake up for work. So, I stay up. I really don't get enough sleep, and need to cut it the heck out. Always been a night owl, though.

Was sleeping well till the thunderstorm started. My 7 year old Shepard is terrified of thunderstorms and wakes me up every time we have one. Then we sit together on the couch, surfing GJ, until it's over.

I travel a lot, so my sleep habits are all screwed up. Melatonin helps without the hung over feeling Ambien brings with it.

That said, I usually will just read GJ til I get sleepy... Like right now.
