mr. sandman is mighty persuasive these days

so there was this one time when i was up at 12:37ish in the after-midnight typing a post and squinting at the screen thinking wouldn't it be nice of me to head down the hall, extricate the contacts plastered to my eyeballs, and get some sleep already.

but then i was remembering how not very long ago i used to think that people who went to bed before 2 AM on a saturday night were Losers instead of Rational. and then i was wondering when exactly did i get to the rational stage, and might there be some prescription for it please?

because this thirty-one-ness? is for the birds. but as i am now typing with my eyes closed, i shall wave my little metaphorical white flag and mosey on down the hall to bed.

good night.

I am so with you on that one. Along with the college students looking younger and younger.

I remember a time when I slept every other night for a full semester.

And? I didn't feel like I was going to die.

So, so much has changed since then!

Oh gosh. I was just thinking to myself, I can't even do the 2am thing anymore....I'm only just 25, why is this happening to me? I have been going to bed around midnight for the past week. It feels really good though...and it makes me wanna do it more. But I don't wanna be rational! I wanna be insane, I like it.

Hope you atleast get to sleep in a little when you go to bed after 2am. I can barely make it to 11pm nowadays and then get up at 6:30am with Little Man.

Sleep rocks!!! Funny, when we're little we don't want to sleep or eat and now both sound pretty good!

I was the same... late nights were standard. And now 11:00 is late... REALLY LATE!
