Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, I just read the news. I am so sorry, and saddened.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

So sad to hear about Gus. GF and I used to have a blast with him over on TT or WXing (can't remember which) talking about Xena. He was funny as hell and an all around good guy. Gus, you'll be sorely missed.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I just saw the news in Beep Me. I'm sitting at work with tears in my eyes and (selfishly) glad I'm alone in the office because of it.

Thank you for letting us know, kimi. My condolences to you and Gus' family. He will be sorely missed.

Hivemind question: anyone have sleep disorder experience not in terms of insomnia, but in terms of being such an active dreamer that you don't get real rest? I've had this problem for ages, and I think I'm about at the point where I'm going to have to do something about it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I think remembering your dreams means you aren't completing a sleep cycle.

If so, I am in serious trouble. I remember multiple, detailed dreams every single night.

ETA: I posted in my LJ in more detail so as not to hijack the discussion here.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Kristin, are you in any pain when you go to sleep? The few things I know to improve sleep include taking an Advil or two before bed, trying to go to bed at night and get up in the morning at the same time every day, making sure you're getting adequate sleep time, and refraining from having a drink before bed because it will encourage wakefulness when it wears off. Not much, really. Oh, and no caffeine 4 hours or so before bedtime.

Deena, not generally in pain, no. I don't drink alcohol or caffeine close to bedtime, either. I'm not great about going to bed and waking up at the same time every day (I've refused to keep a school schedule on weekends in order to have some semblance of a social life), but otherwise I'm pretty good about the rest.

ETA: Oh, and the reason that I suspect that sleep time isn't the problem is that I have just as many problems during vacation when I can sleep up to 10-12 hours a night as I do when I'm grabbing 5-6 during a work week.

depends on home much of sleep dep you are carrying.If you are running with one for a month aor more - a week of lots of sleep isn't going to do it.
