So, with baseball's instant replay, do the umps have different camera views than the broadcast reviews?

Guess what I'm doing tomorrow night??!

sobbing. Only 9 more. 4 tomorrow. Why is it after 44, the last 9 seem so daunting?

I can do a pot (2 1/2 cups) of tea or a cup of coffee, after that I get jittery. I'll sometimes have iced tea on the weekend, but only if I'm going to be doing something when the effects hit like swim or run crazy errands. Basically something all gogogo. Nothing involving attention to detail.

WHAT? Oh...

Once in a blue moon caffeine hits me a little strong but usually I don't notice much of a difference after my daily iced quad shot espresso latte. Enough so that I can vary my time of consumption without a resulting headache. I'm allowed 8oz of skim milk a day and sometimes I choose to have it in my coffee in the morning but lately I've been drinking it after work, around 5pm-ish.

I thought that yerba mate had about the same caffeine as coffee but I could be wrong. Not that I think "have a cup of coffee to wake up" is sound medical advice. Closer to BS.

I tried Ambien years ago and it did nothing for me. Doc's advice was for me to take the pill after I lie down and then try to go straight to sleep. Right - that worked. I just stopped taking the Ambien. I only have occassional insomnia, though, so I can live with that result. Someone with persistent insomnia shouldn't have to live with it.

I am secretly twelve years old. I just had a bologna sandwich and Oreos for dinner and now I'm watching Greek. Which is an ABC Family show.

Nope.

I'm jealous of people who go straight to sleep. I can't do that without drugs. Sometimes I'll fall asleep on my own after an hour or so, or I'll stay awake half the night staring at the ceiling.

Yeah, I always take a long time to go to sleep. This is why I have to "go to bed" at 10 if I want 8 hours, because maybe then I'll be asleep by 11. Which I realize is no actual problem, insomniacs!

I don't sleep very well either. Well, last week I did because I had a cold and so I took copious amounts of NyQuil, which ever so slightly aids my falling asleep time. I've never taken anything else, and I really don't want to, unless it gets to the point where I'm too tired to function during the day.

I read somewhere once that the average person can fall asleep in 8 minutes? That was astounding to me, it is always at least an hour if I sleep at all.

I do find that I sleep better on the couch in our family room than I do in my bedroom? Other than it being stupidly cold in my bedroom all the time, I can't really figure out what the reason is.

It varies for me. Strange location all bets are off.

Sweet stupid zombie jesus, I JUST realized that last week? When I told my supervisor I was taking a vacation day just because I needed a break? She was not-so-subtly encouraging me to take it as a sick day.

Now, I've done that on occasion, just not in a while.

I can't believe I missed that FOR A WEEK.

May be a sign I needed a break.

Does this make sense to people?

Chicago Manual of Style says U.S. can only be used as an adjective. The AP Stylebook used to say that, but started allowing U.S. as a noun five or so years ago.
