Gud, I'm so sorry.
I don't sleep but 4-6 hours per night, but that's because I can't stay asleep. I do best on 5 hours, plus an hour nap sometime between noon and 6-ish. I don't usually get the nap, though.
Man, you just get darker and darker, and the weird thing is, your aura? Beige.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Back in college and for about 5 years after I could go comfortably on an average of 4 or 5 hours a night, but those days are long past. I think maybe I just deferred the sleep debt until my 30s.

I'm so sorry, Gud.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wake up early, and I wake up in a flash, but I still need to have actually slept. And, fuck, I wish I could actually sleep later. I'm too tired but not sleepy a disturbing amount of the time.

Oh, Gud, that's terrible. I'm so sorry.

Just like how I'm a sub-taster, I suspect I'm the opposite of those short sleepers. I need a lot of sleep. I'm also lazy, so those things are kinda hard to separate sometimes.

Gud, I'm so sorry.
I don't want to seem to judge people harshly but I kinda hate their ability to do this.
Dude, I am completely fine with harshly judging people who have that ability. I'll just be over here, glaring at my insomnia meds.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I judge. Oh, I do judge.

I should report, I'm now making rice like a boss. Like a fucking boss.
Why do I not remember Pete Townshend's elaborate excuse for child porn?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
My brother just told me a couple of days ago that he sleeps only 3-4 hours a night, but I think it's chronic insomnia, not that he's a natural short sleeper. He said he eventually crashes and sleeps 8 hours, about once every 2 weeks.
Tim sleeps an average of 5 hours on work nights, but that's because he stays up too late watching Power Girl cosplay fanvids (true story). It catches up with him late in the week and he naps after work and also sleeps 8-10 hours a night on the weekend.
I need about 20 hours of sleep. I am a panda. (I get about 7 hours on week nights; 8 if I plan well. I sleep longer on the weekends, maybe 9 hours.)
I need a lot of sleep. I'm also lazy, so those things are kinda hard to separate sometimes.
Ahahaha! Okay, that's pretty much me.
I wake up in a flash
I used to be able to do this, until about 10 years ago. God, I miss it. Now it's like swimming upward through molasses.
