Title: In just one day...
Post by: RVertigo on August 23, 2006, 04:56:01 PM
You ever have a day that seems to change your whole life?

Well, yesterday wasn't one of those...  But, I did get some stuff done.

Yup...  Got a lot of stuff done.

You plan on hooking up with another band?

I had UPS pick up 43 boxes the day before yesterday.  I considered it an accomplishment.

I dunno yet...  Maybe...  I've been playing bass with this band for 4 years, so I'm kinda tired of it. :icon_confused:

I had the day off, so I:

-  Went and bought a new CD alarm clock

-  Gave a copy of my MSF ERC card to my insurance agent

-  uh...  That's it.

You didn't even "catch up" on sleep?  I usually do that on my days off...   So, nearly every weekend starts off like this:

....  uh ....
.....   Bleh.....
.......  *yawn*
....  Huh?   ....   
..........  1:30?!?  :o :mad:  GOD F%$KING DAMNIT!!!
*throws off sheets and runs to the shower*

Neh...  I'm not sure why not.  I hope I'm not coming down with something bad...

I mean, the day a man doesn't "want to" catch up on sleep, that signals the end of the world. :laugh:

Yeah... You are...   It's called:  "Getting OLD!"  :flipoff:

My brother and my grandfather go to bed at 9:30 and wake up at 5:30 every day...  Even on weekends.

I'm lucky if I'm tired at midnight.  Most work nights I'm up until at least 1...  And sometimes 3...  Weekends, I'm up until at least 3 and usually more like 4 or 5...

No wonder I can never wake up.  :icon_confused:

I'm up till anywhere from 1am - 3am every night.  And sometimes I have to wake up at 5am to get ready for work.

On the RARE nights I can sleep at 11pm, I ALWAYS wake up MANY MANY times during the night, so when I have to wake up, I feel as if I didn't get to sleep.

if you hit the snooze button about 5 times, when its set for 5 minutes, it feels liek you slept for a long time, so next time set your alarm 25 minutes early
and your sneooze for 5 minutes, do it 5 times, it really is nice, i promise it feels like you got extra long sleep

+1  I have my alarm set 10 minutes fast and set to go off at 6:45am.  Have to be to work at 7:30am but somehow i always snooze the damn thing till 7:20, take a shower and roll.  Except today, went to the bar with some friends i hadn't seen for a while last night and stayed out till 2am.  Woke up at the normal 7am still drunk, emailed boss informed her that i would be late, around 9, passed back out and woke up at 9, quality time with fiance.  Made it to work by 9:45 or so :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:.  Damn beer... its a love hate relationship that we have.

PS i live 5 mins from work  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I hate that when that happens...  Especially when I wake up about two minutes before the alarm goes off.

"I COULD HAVE SLEPT ANOTHER COUPLE MINUTES!!! :mad:"
