Sex & Shenanigans

[Kitty_so_frisky]

I'm a life long insomniac. The first time I remember going days without sleeping I was only 7 or 8 years old. I envy people who sleep, and sleep solid through the night. It is a very rare morning I wake up bright eyed and refreshed.

It started around 11 or 12 for me

I'm a very grumpy girl if I stay up past my bed time and get less than 8 hours of sleep.

Every once in a while I contemplate how many really important revisions have been made by folks lacking sleep (or suffering from various maladies ore modern medicine). It’s a goddamn miracle the world is as good as it is!

Read an article a while back about a doctor who'd been misdiagnozing peoples maladies. One lady he claimed had a vitamin allergy of some sort, so he restricted her diet to avoid it at all costs. She started bleeding from her gums and stuff, then finally got a phone call from the hospital urging her to get re-tested - turned out the doc in question had a brain tumour that'd fucked up his reasoning skills. He died shortly after.

Stuff of nightmares.

It's been too long. I almost forgot I had a butt!

Maybe you should have someone check it out for you. For your fans.

I feel you girl It's not been lifelong for me, started in my mid 20s and has come and gone in periods.. Have you done any sleep studies? I did one and they theorize I have a circadian rhythm a lot longer than 24 hours. Really fucks up when working steady hours, though vacations help a lot.

I haven't, at least not the type where you sleep in a lab with a bunch of sensors stuck to you. Though that would probably be a good idea. I just had an annual physical and my hemoglobin was a bit high which can be a sign of either sleep apnea, or just a byproduct of the elevation my home is at.

I had to go through a sleep study twice with my son.
Just because he fell asleep in class one time.
It was a waste of time.

Me too!!

If you have access to it, I'd recommend it. Though even here in our healthcare paradise, the wait was about 14 months.

"You have to stay awake for 24 hours before coming in."
"Lol np doc. I can do that with my eyes closed."

I go through periods of insomnia and then I have times that despite my best efforts my body just cannot stay awake. I then get called a narcoleptic - that's when I get sent this song by a certain someone.

That song kinda induces narcolepsy.

The fact that this song does not have any caesuras or sudden un-explained pauses in the music for complete silence is unforgivable.

My disappointment is immesurable and my day is ruined.

Body or brain?

We didn't. The stuff of dreams...

Both?

It's not like I'm sleep walking?

Eh, too easy. Makes it a cheap pop, and Folds would think it a cheat. Love Ben.

I meant like, you can’t shut off your brain?

I'm assuming that my kids would let me know. And, also, I always wake up in my bed.

But anything is possible, I guess? So...

Oh. I mean, that's the cause of my insomnia. Not the narcolepsy. I can't do anything about that one.

One of my all time favorite albums. I've seen Ben (solo and with the band) live 5 times.

Oh … I never forgot

 

[SherlockianMan]

I just at Buffalo wings so spicy my ears are ringing. Is this normal?

Impossible to forget such a thing!


....I'm just surprised there was no "hole" added
