CaptainSatan Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Usual... As we say in Ireland let's drink until the alcohol in our system destroys our liver and kills us.
Silkie McDonough Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 The usual for me is work. I'm not complaining, the schedule is my choice.

Capt. Sterling Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Holy cow Batman! I'm up, an all the insomniacs hav gone t' bed! My word! What ever gave you that idea... surely every once in a while one has to go sew for the crew!!! AND if one is truly fortunate, sew for oneself!!! Not to mention research, research, research, oh and spend time with the spouse... Just because I'm up most of the night doesn't mean the far better half will wait all night for me to come to bed...

Merrydeath Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 the other night I was in a snow storm and was up for over 24 with only 2 hours sleep.. it was.. hideous.

Rumba Rue Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 cat, the other white meat... I am so fed up with my big, fat gray male cat, Smoke wrapping himself around my head at night on my pillow. The pillow is only so big... Damn cat, scratching, licking periodically throughout the night (actually this has been going on for some time now), is keeping me awake. Pushing him away, or throwing him off the bed does no good. He's like a damn boomerang, comes right back. Then I get one of the black kitties, Jasper wanting me to pet him at 3 AM! And if I don't respond then he starts pawing at me and meowing until I pay attention....Then I get Luna on top of my chest, purring loudly at same time Jasper is bugging me..... I'm probably going to crash sometime this afternoon....

Capt. Sterling Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 The cat's not a problem...tis the Golden who licks you in the face at five in the morning in order to use the outside loo....

CrazyCholeBlack Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 beats waking up to the sound of them peeing on the floor.

Capt. Sterling Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 You have a very good point there!

Lilith Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 The cat's not a problem...tis the Golden who licks you in the face at five in the morning in order to use the outside loo.... What a horrible way to wake up!! Here something to think about next time your dog awakes you, Captain. I have a 3 year old Lab that did the same thing, up until three weeks ago. After letting him out for his early 'call of nature' run. Baxter decided to bring his frozen poo inside as a 'yummy treat'! No more morning kisses from him!

Lilith Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Aren't you the lucky one Ever have a 3 am munchie run....but EVERYTHING is closed? What do you do? 1. Look through your cupboard and pray you find something, 2. Start making breakfast really, really early, 3. Suffer, and 4. Be the first in line when your favorite shop/store opens.

CrazyCholeBlack Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 can't say I have that problem Lilith. The grocery store is 24hrs. Of course when the people stocking at 3am know you by name, it's a sign you should either sleep more or do your grocery shopping at a more reasonable hour.

Capt. Sterling Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 3am?! I wish. This part of Virginia closes up at 11pm!! If it isn't in the house already one just suffers or pours another glass of port.

DocF225 Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 The late night/early morning snack all comes down to proper planning. Get stuck having to EAT instant hot chocolate mix to get the sugar fix and you start maintaining "emergency rations". I keep a stash of sweet and salty snacks in an area of the house that requires a special trip so they don't end up as regular snacks. That way when the late night munchies set in, I don't have to resort to the hot chocolate mix again. Doc Wiseman - Ship's Physician, Stur.. er... Surgeon Extrodinaire and general scoundrel.

CrazyCholeBlack Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 So where are all the other insomniacs lately? I can't be the only one with nothing to do right now. Have to wait for more fabric to arrive before I can get to work which leaves a lot of dark hours to kill. *yawn* back to reading I guess.

Silkie McDonough Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 I'm here ...as always. I still don't feel qualified to be in the club ...just because I'm up all night doesn't mean I can't sleep!
CrazyCholeBlack Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 I've said it more than once in this thread alone. I AM NOT an insomniac. I DO sleep. Really, honestly. 6 hours a night, well, closer to early morning but I DO sleep. But hey, that's who else is up at this hour. & this is when I get lonely & bored.
