  • Got Insomnia?

    Insomnia,
    I’m on to ya.
    You’re like an unwelcome guest
    depriving me of my rest.

    You’re driving me nuts.
    I just want to kick you in the nuts.
    You’re a creep,
    why don’t you let me sleep?

    Yep… it’s been like this the past week(s).  It’s past 2 AM now. 
    I had to take a pill tonight.  I can’t handle another sleepless night.

  • I know the feeling, man.  I’ve been up like that too.

  • Welcome to the Sleepless Nights Club!
    Wanna get a VIP membership?

  • Warm milk?

    Tylenol PM?

    Sex?

  • i’ve been having a hard time sleeping well lately too.  sigh…  it’s probably stress-related.

  • Knowing your job and how hard you work at it, I go along with Aaron. How to reduce stress – mm – maybe some meditation or exercise like yoga. 

  • You poor thing – I hope you get some rest.  As for the pills, they don’t seem to be improving your poetry!  =D

  • @christao408 - lol… I was starting to get a bit drowsy when I wrote that.  I got 6.5 hours this morning but woke up just after 9.  I usually target to wake up at 5:45 on a workday.  

  • @arenadi - I’m curious what you try to do to get to sleep.  You seem to have a good knowledge of TCM and other techniques.

    @ZenPaper - I started that club!  hahahaha

    @yang1815 - you naughty boy…

    Matt:  “not tonight dear, I have a head ache”
    bf:  “Here’s some Tylenol PM Mattie… it’s from Dr. Andy.  You can wash it down with warm milk.”
    Matt:  “Oh yeah?  What else did Dr. Andy recommend?”
    bf:  “  ^ ^ “ 

    @kunhuo42 - you too?  hug Aaron.  I should write some more poetry for you to read.  It’ll put you to sleep in no time.

    @Fatcat723 - I’ve concluded that TV doesn’t do anything to put the mind at ease although I do fall asleep in front of it.  I doubt if that’s healthy though.

  • I often find I fall asleep in the middle of a CD of soothing music – and that can happen at any time of day or night ! Lol. Sympathy’s are with you though, it’s awful when you can’t sleep and have to work the next day.

  • Was up until 330 last night :( Wtf :( :(:(

  • I hate sleeples nights. One of my friends hadn’t slept in a while and I got worried, things are better now.

    It’s probably just a passsing thing.

  • @ElusiveWords - There are TCM methods, I don’t know why I don’t use them on myself more often.  There is reflexology that can put people to sleep; but I don’t find that relaxing, doing it to myself.  I do calm myself via the wrists though.  Most often I’ll just take a hot shower, and put on music that I’ve conditioned myself to be sleep music.

  • Your poetry is  good Matt. Don’t listen to Chris. Keep on writing though… not at the expense of a sleepless night. I hope that improves for you.

  • @Chatamanda - oh gosh… you better stay away from soothing music during the day … or when you drive. 

    @secade - I hope we all get back to a regular sleep cycle soon.

    @yang1815 - what was keeping you up?

    @arenadi - I’ll have to find out what that wrist thing you’re talking about.  It sounds interesting.

    @ZSA_MD - oh, you’re so kind.  That was just something I threw together – it sort of rhymes but it’s not really poetry.  hee hee…

  • @ElusiveWords - I was being OCD haha.  Wanted to finish something and didn’t want to give up until I did.

  • @yorutenshi - I hope so.  I did manage to sleep ok last night so that was a relief.  

  • @ElusiveWords - Oh I can listen to it during the day OK – just as long as I don’t lay down or get too comfy ! Lol Incidently it’s almost 3.0 AM here, I’ve slept for about 3 hrs and now I’m wide awake ! A regular occurrence for me. 

  • Andy’s right though, after sex I drift into sleep easily.

  • Sorry to hear.  Thankfully I sleep like a log.
