How many hours do you sleep a night?
« on: March 29, 2003, 05:15 AM »
I'm an absolute night owl, and can rarely put myself to bed before 2:00am in the morning.  I usually get up around 8:45am each morning for work (I go in around 9:30).  So I'd say that I probably get an average of a little over 6 hours of sleep per night, with usually an extra hour or two on the weekends.

Not nearly enough though!  It's really starting to catch up to me and wipe me out now that I'm 32.  I'll get tired at work around 3-4 in the afternoon, but as soon as I get home later in the evening, I get my second wind and can't nod off for hours.  When I was in college, on my own schedule with very few obligations I'd sleep about 10 hours a night.  I definitely need a minimum of 8, but probably more like 9 to be a tad more "perky" throughout the day...  Guess I really need to hit the warm milk, or sumthin'...!   :-\

So how many hours a night do you guys (and gals) usually crash out for?  Do you get enough sleep...?

Matt, I am exactly like you!  There's nothing more that I need to say, because my sleeping habits are just like yours.

WOW!       :o

On weekdays I go to bed at 10pm, and I have to get up at 6am for school.

On weekends I usually go to bed at around 10:30 or 11pm and wake up at around 9am.

i go to bed around 1 during the week and get up at 6:30.  Sleep is a waste of time ;)  

On the weekends I catch up, though. I went to bed last night at 1 and didn't get up until 11. So i feel groovy now :)

Hmmm...
Weekdays I usually sleep from 12 to 3, then 4 to 5... I usually wake up after a couple of hours of sleep, then it takes a while to get back to sleep, if I do at all...  :'( Of course, sometimes I sleep perfectly fine.

Weekends... Well, nobody sleeps on weekends! I usually nap from 1 to 6 or something like that. I went to bed at about 12 last night, and woke up at 7, so I did pretty good.  :D

Weekdays I go to bed at around 1:00 AM and get up around 6:30 AM. The weekends I go to bed at around the same time, sometimes later when I have extra work to do, then I get up at around 11:00 (my all time record is around 2:30 PM) :o :o.

I am a night owl also. I usually go to bed around midnight and get up about six in the morning. This is seven days a week. II think working nights when I went to school ruined me!

On average I would say I get between 6 and 8 hours. It seems that on the weekends when I can sleep I don't. It doesn't matter when I go to bed my internal clock has me up before 6.  I used to sleep around 4-5 per night but there must be something to that getting older and needing more sleep crap. Back in the Army days you were considered lucky to get 4.

I usually hit the hay around 10-10:30 PM after I read a chapter or two of the current book I'm reading.  I get up anywhere between 6 and 7AM which depends on when the little guy decides he wants to wake up for the day.  So between 8 to 9 hours a night.  Probably less on the weekends because I will stay up later but still have to get up early :P

Go to bed sometime between midnight and 2:00.  Up at 6:30 unless buglet is up sooner.  

I'll sleep when I die...

Eh, I try and get 8 hours a night. If I sleep like 10-12, I wake up in a pool of my own drool.

Now, we don't want that do we?  ::)

Dredging, part II.

I want to know if Scott is sleeping a lot less lately.  I see him here lots of times at night, so methinks his sleep patterns have changed.  Mine have not.
