Anybody up?

Does it matter once you are retired?

I was just playing cubis on Yahoo.

Hi guys!  Glad to hear it Wayne. I hope it works out for you and you can get that surgery.

T2--I don't know that game.  Quiz show is like Jeopardy.  I would not be able to play it with friends, though.  I am so not competitive with people I know, so I play with random people. When I used to play scrabble and wwf, if my opponent wasn't good, I wouldn't put my best letters down because I didn't want to blitzkrieg them.  If my opponent was good and was way ahead in points, I would lose the desire to continue the game.

I am not competitive like that either.  Mostly I pick games that will put me back to sleep.  LOL  Sorry you are having trouble sleeping Crest.  I am starting to hear the birds now.  I need to try to catch another couple of hours if I can before work.

Oh, Yikes!  You work and you're up!  Not good. I'd be freaking.  That was always a fear when I taught.  I couldnt' stand in front of a bunch of teens and be tired. They would eat me alive!!! They would eat anyone alive if they smelled weakness of any kind.

  I hope you catch some zzzzzzzs now.

What about Rummy or Old Maid ?

I sleep about 4 hours/night....doesn't matter what time I go to bed.  Most of my time on the computer is between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. I catch a little snooze here and there during the day...usually by accident.

I guess I am lucky. I can sleep anywhere, any time. During the week I get 4-5 hours a night.  On rainy weekends (like this weekend) I could sleep all day.

i'm not sure if i have insomnia or not but i don't usually sleep more than 4 or 5 hours a nite if i'm lucky .. but because i'm pretty much semi retarded now i'll take a nap most of the time for an hour or two so it works out .. but goin back 25 years ago i was close to the same way .. i'd work all day and come home and take a shower and a nap before dinner and then stay up till about 1am and be up by 6 .. whats that called again your cycadian rhythyms ?? i dunno .. i will say this much tho , i noticed that i don't have as much energy as i used to these last few years .. so bein retarded probably has somethin to do with that .. i don't have that sense of urgency about all that much anymore .. maybe i'm goin thru manopause ??

Went to bed around 7am--just woke up at 11:29.

I was out with a bunch of cousins that I never see, was all wound up, had Sudafed before I left and coffee after dinner around 10pm.  I usually sleep well, but last night I was WIRED!

If I didn't take my evening Tylenol PMs, I would have a lot more trouble sleeping.....partly from discomfort.....but mostly because I can't shut my brain off. My son is the same way. And this morning, even though I was technically sleeping, I was dreaming very realistic, unnerving dreams, so I didn't feel like I was getting quality rest. Hey, Crest.....what's with you? No competitive nature? :-). I taught my #4 granddaughter to play Rummy, Uno, and Monopoly......and now she creams me every single time!!! I try.....I really do.....cuz just once, I'd like to beat her! But she wipes the floor with me every time. The difference is......I still like to play.....for the fun of the game, the quality time with her, and the laughs we usually get. But if I won too often......she wouldn't play with me anymore. Last time we played Monopoly, I was doing pretty well, and she was struggling to stay afloat. She was mortgaging stuff to pay my rent. But, my luck tanked, and hers picked up, and she won anyway. She was pretty upset when she was behind, though.

Wayne.....keep it up, my friend. :-)
