Can't Sleep
 

Well I live in Indiana in the US and it is 4:03 and I can't sleep. It's not that I don't want to but rather that I just can't seem to get tired. I worked an eight hour day today and it was a busy day as we where busy restocking and making things since Saturday we ran out of almost everything. So yeah now I'm home and I can't sleep. Just thought I'd post on here and see what everyone else was up to right now.

Amazing....
For me its right now 10.05 Am, and Im in a not very laborius morning at work today!!

Sometimes I forget the time difference!!!....

Try to relax, a hot warm bath and let you down in your bed without to feel angry about: I must sleep!

I've done the warm shower when I got home from work, helps me relax after a day of people being stupid. It amazes me how people still want to order food when they are eating at a buffet.

Right now I'm watching the 2k3 toon and just sitting back in my chair. Oh and of course posting on here.

4:17 AM (as you know, being we live on the same coast) here, these are my normal hours. I sleep all day and prowl all night. I've been spending most of my evening cleaning up the thousands of files on my CPU to make room for more, while listenin' to tunes (a group named Little Dragon, to be specific) and scarfing skittles. Ahh, the geek life!

That´s relax too! ;)

LOL!! :tgrin::tgrin::tgrin:

I think it's the Ice Storm that is currently hitting us at the moment that is keeping me awake. Snow I can handle but ice bothers me. Looking out my window there are huge iceicells hanging off my roof. I work second shift so my day is all kinds of messed up. I get up like at 11:30 usually and then crash around 3:30.

^ I had never seen an Ice Storm,... it sounds big!...I think Ill be very scared for sleep too!!!...Ill be Under my bed!!! :tgrin:

Basically it is cold enough that the rain freezes as it hits. It took me 20 minutes to chip all the ice off my truck so I could drive home. Love snow storms though. Gosh I wish I could have like two feet of snow when I wake up.

uff....! That sounds so Cool!!! both senses....:tgrin::tcool: !!
We are actually complaining about we are cool these days...and we havennot Ice or Snow HERE!!!!!... and next month we have Carnival parties ! people go outside with customs for party /songs/shows...!!...:teek:

LOL...we dont know how cool can be a winter (just this place....in other cities is different!!)...!

The only contry I've been to is Canada, I would really love to travel someday and see a chunck of Europe. I've wanted to see Spain, France, and England. I'm going to have to start saving for that.

^ What a coincidence!! :) I´ll love to visit USA and Canada some day!!! (Except the State where you can be bad-trated for be dark-hair: Arizona....just in case...) Im dark hair!

I think I should probably get off an internet message board if i want to try and sleep at all tonight at some point. lol. At least I have tomorrow off.

^good night!! LOL!!

Thanks. I hope the weather gets a little better so I can go to the comic book shop tomorrow. I need to find a few issues of things I'm reading right now. Oh and have a good day.

an hour later and I'm still up :-/ grrr. Sleep just doesn't seem like it will come.

Same here Every Nights I toss and Turn.it's like freezing here , my flat don't keep warmness and have no water anymore, so This is hard times. grrr we will survive Turtles :trazz:

I often wake up earlier then my alarm clock due to the machinery the workers use outside. The whole neighborhood on the other side of the street is getting torn down, but at least we have a view now :P

I'm sorry to hear that, Cowabunga Carl. We're supposed to get a huge snowstorm later today and into tomorrow. I heard about the ice storm down there. Hope you're doing okay.

Finally got some sleep around 7. But then woke up at 11. So at least I've had four hours of sleep.

I really wanted to go to the comic book store today but it is freezing misting right now. I would love for it to snow, at least that way I could have some tracktion to drive on.

I would try during the day to stay away from your bed. Sleep using comes thanks to repetition of similar tasks right before sleep. That is why some people say a warm glass of milk will help is because they have built up a repetition of tasks that all lead them to sleep.
You also have to separate your bed from everyday tasks. When you do that your body will click that your bed equals sleep and could help more with your slumber.
Doing this stuff might help you later when you go back to bed. It might take awhile to have enough repetition of some sort to help guide you to sleep. I hope it all helps though.

You might also be stressed, which won't help.

*hops into bed*
Sweet dreams, party people. ^_^

That was a short nap. :ohwell:

Did you have a good sleep, Gobo?

Can't say if I actually slept or just stared at the back of my eyelids for half an hour while drifting off in thought.

I had sleep like a marmot today! ... almost 9 hours!!! I was so tired!!! :teek:

Sleep like a marmot? Well....it is groundhog day.

I've never heard that expression before and I speak a couple of languages besides english. I'm gonna tuck that one away in my memory banks

Well I think I figured out why I wasn't getting a good night sleep or being able to sleep, I'm coming down with something. I've been coughing and hacking all day today to the point my chest feels like it will explode.

You started an epidemic with your dang 'power of suggestion'. :tgrumble: I went to sleep at 7:30 PM, woke up a little while ago to use the bathroom, now couldn't get back to sleep if you paid me. And, I actually have somewhere to go in the morning for a change too. This is somehow all your fault. I know it! :evil:

lol sorry gobo

Sorry Cowabunga Carl...Seems to me, you are getting a virus!!!

Gobo...It can not be contagious by PC screen!!! :tgrin::twink: :tlol::tlol: even with power of suggestion...!!

Katie: Yes....Here we use to say I sleep/sleeped like a marmot or also like a dormouse!...
... so similar with period of hibernation....! :lol::lol::lol:
And yes, I know yesterday was the groundhog/woodchuck day....Just I prefer the word "marmot" because is so similar in Spanish: Marmota. LOL! :)

Yeah I thought I had managed to get through this winter without getting Bronchities but I think it finally caught up to me. Which sucks since i really can't afford to take time off.

Aww... Po' Carl... :ohwell: I take back every crummy thing I said about you... until you're better. Then, it'll have been all your fault again. Deal? :D

Everytime I cough I feel like i'm going to pass out. I really need my taxe to get here so I can go to the Dr.

Ahh i know the feeling dude, there is nothing worse than trying to sleep and not being able to. I work 12 hour rotating shifts.. some days I get a rest day in between, some days I dont, so im constantly starting work at 6am then 6pm than maybe 12am or 12pm.

So basically my body clock is pretty much out of whack 24/7 to start with.
But I'm also a very energetic person.

I force myself to run 10km nearly every day and once a week I attempt a half marathon distance. I go to the gym, surf, swim dive etc on my days off and i eat an incredible amount of food to have the energy to sustain my lifestyle.

But if i have a day where I dont do anything physical... i have far too much energy build up, and then trying to sleep is just out of the question. Too often Iv'e often found myself laying in bed for a good 3 hours just trying to sleep to no avail since i'm buzzing too much. It's a nightmare!!!!! A few times Ive woken up and have gone for a 3am run around the botanical gardens... needless to say Ive been stopped by the police on several occasions asking what then hell am I doing. Lol they even searched me once!!! But it does work... as soon as I get home and after aquick shower its lights out.

So I got sent home from work today for getting sick once I got there. Laying in bed watching some House at the moment and then I'm going to watch some Turtles. I really hope that I can get into see my Dr. tomorrow.

Well it's 1:33 am here and I'm going to try and sleep but knowing me I'll be tossing and turning for at least an hour.

The sooner you start tossing & turning, the sooner you'll catch those elusive Zs, bud. It's been scientifically proven.

Tossing and turning would be nice dude. Being sick sucks. I laid down and about felt like I was going to die. Started coughing so bad that my nose started bleeding.

This is why god made NyQuil.

Just sayin...

I feel like I can barely breath now, scared to take something that will knock me out. Just have to get through tonight and then tomorrow hopefully my sister will be lending me money to go to the Dr.
