Can’t Sleep

July 16th, 2005
Posted by gerrod in: everyday life

It’s 5:42 AM. I can’t sleep. I’ve been tossing and turning for the last hour, and now I’m just wide awake. Lucky Kristy is out to the world; she sleeps better than anyone I know. I’m not sure if this is just a problem with it being summer time (i.e. due to the heat), or what – but every morning recently, I’m awake around 5 AM. Sometimes I can get back to sleep, sometimes not.

Enough of my rambling. What’s to do at quarter to six on a Saturday?

Well, sleep obviously. But I suppose you already knew my opinion on the topic! :-)

You’re crazy GT :P <br><br>Remember when I used to have this problem back at Brackers. It drove me insane. <br><br>As soon as I moved over here it all changed. I sleep like a log now. Don’t even have to get up for a toilet break during the middle of the night anymore.<br><br>More than you wanted to know, but hey…. :)

Welcome to my world Gerrod. I am ready to get up about 3 hours after i go to bed, then just snooze till it is time to get up for work or whatever ie 15-30 minute blocks. Same on the weekends. It is very frustrating!!

Bender – do you think you’re doing something differently that makes you sleep better now? Or is it just the lack of crows?<br><br>Nathan – <a href="http://flatwhiteplease.com/FWPMain/Default.aspx?ItemID=256" target="_blank">Like you were saying</a>, you should have NO trouble sleeping anymore ;-)

Brother G, why don’t you use the quiet and cooler hours of the early mornings to get up and go for a run? Isn’t that what you used to do during Queensland summers anyway? :-)

Errr… yeah, sure Suz :-) . Well yesterday I got up and started rewriting my admin site, hopefully I can polish it off today. I managed to sleep until 9 AM today, w00t w00t!

How can you people not sleep at that time ON A SATURDAY? I can understand you not being able to sleep mid week if you got a really big important "thing" on, but Saturdays are the ultimate sleep in. In fact since Ive been in Sydney, sleeping like a log has been right up my alley. Clocked up a couple of 10 and 11am’s even :)
