Another sleepless night (not in Seattle)

Lol, I've thought about moving there for the summer season if the temps up there were a little warmer. I should sign up for the "guest worker" thing to hang out in SoCal over the winter.

Don't have any room in my house - maybe you could stay with thcrw739.

Room? I'd be happy in the backyard

edit: As long as I had AC power for my toys.

!!! This is great. I'm truly tired and groggy. I think I'm done for the day and I'll sleep when my head hits the coffin.

Told ya I have that effect on people.

That snooze of mine was pretty short so what do I do when I wake up? Yep, check here. Back to snoozing, I hope.

Sorry, but I dont understand how you can go with just some sleep .. If I get under 7 hours of sleep, I am tired for the rest of the day...

Cmonex, you are way too young to be tired.... Me? I dozed off once I hit the sack! I too need at least 7 hr or I will be so crappy the next day!

But I do want to stay up and not be crappy the next day... Anyone has a remedy for staying up? Coffee doesnt do it....Sigh.

How did you get cabin fever? That can be pretty serious. Has anyone here ever seen that Stephen King movie, The Shining?

First, I was smart. All my axes and other such deadly weapons are tucked away in my shed. No pulling a "Here's Johnny" from you.

Second, I was going alright until February. We had little snow untl then. Feb 6 a massive storm rolled in and the snow was relentless for the entire month.

Every day I'd need to clean 6-8" of snow from the car and snowblow the drive if I had any hope of getting out.

Just as warm spell would melt the worst of it another arctic front would roll in with heavy thick snow for a few more days.

It's just me here so the snow removal is all my job. Cats make lousy snow shovellers. Too lazy or too smart, take your choice.

To compound things I missed last summer, being mostly homebound.

So I feel I've been in the joint for a year and my parole date is around the corner.

Cabin fever creeps up on you. I find you don't wake up with it one day. Is a sublte change that overcomes you.

There's only one cure. Get out in enjoyable weather and start interacting with the world again. I can't wait.

I never suffer these weird sleep cycles in the summer. I'm with the sun usually and off to bed an after after twilight.

Tech_girl,

Have you tried a strong tea before bed? It keeps some of my friends going for an extra hour or two.

Wallythacker, in fact I have. It puts me right to sleep..! Maybe I need exercise??

Exercise generally stimulates blood and adrenaline flow and perks you up. Have you tried warm milk ? It sometimes helps me.

I thought warm milk puts one to sleep sooner than you can count 1, 2, 3?
