Insomniacs anonymous

[Hypoxia]

Insomnia is an artifact of industrialized timekeeping. Humans did not evolve to sleep 7-9 hours straight, but in 3-4 hour spurts. Pre-industrial societies don't feature sleep disorders. Insomnia means your body isn't synchronized to your employer's clock. I retired decades ago and I can pretty much sleep whenever the fuck I want, constrained by unavoidable appointments (like a doctor or mechanic who wants me in early).

Hey Tol...how are you sweetie?


Still suffering from insomnia too. I worked night tour for many years but I never slept well before then. Not going to blame it on the job. I've just never been a person that was tired at night. I have no idea why. I only know it's the most frustrating thing to deal with.

Just to add to the conversation:

I don't have problems staying up all night, as long as I have access to coffee. But where I am, I do not.

no caffeine required.... It's 1:15 a.m. and my frustration is just beginning.

Oh i'd think we're doing it now because no one here really knows anyone else on here.

So much truth!!!

 

[L8tnIt]

Yet another good night to stay awake all night: New Year's Eve.
It so would have been worth it to have done so... if it was filled with fun & debauchery.
Which it wasn't
Oh well. At least I am getting paid Holiday Pay for last night & tonight. Can't beat that but so much, right?

 

[L8tnIt]

Just when I thought the job couldn't keep me up and awake any more:
I have been here since 10 p.m. Friday, and I will finally get to leave at 6 a.m. Monday.
