~~Time to hit ze shops for some milk and OJ. Maybe a small box of ice lollies.~~
E: is my local Coles just shit or has Proud & Punch stopped making pure icy poles without "cream". I am disgruntled. Considered all other ice cream options and then decided fuck it, I don't need that in my life, OR OJ, got my favourite coconut water on half price instead.
Driving back the sun was already stinging like a MF, so make sure to get that sun protection on today!
Then chop and cook up the veg and tvp for hoppin john, wash up all of that, switch on the AC and do a few hours of work (to make up for short days next week) until my friend turns up.
Kitten why are you so productive! I've been procrastinating :/
Because I haven't had only 3 hours of sleep! I did spend half of yesterday in a fog with a bad headache...
Ayy 3hr sleep club. I've lost my caffeine tolerance and had an iced coffee with 160mg, it kinda fucked me up. Helped a friend move house a little this morning and now back home to follow Dr William Nelsons Jamacian arthritis protocol.
I actually think 3 was the "perfect" number. It's weird how sleep works like that (for me). If I got another hour or an hour less, they'd be equally bad, whereas 3 hours left me as energetic as 8 or 9 hours, just for not as long
Young man, do not expect this to last....
Oldy, I've done it all before, I know the timeline ๐
Seriously as long as I keep on moving, keep on talking, keep on doing, I'll be fine. It's when I slow down or sit for too long I'll conk out
I suspect our wise feline-pescine comrade is insinuating there will come a time when 3 hours simply won't even be an option (bar the copious use of pharmaceuticals). I tend to agree.
Enjoy being able to function at all on such little sleep while you can!
Old people I know seem to always fall into one of 2 categories. The first are people that do like 2 hours of sleep a night and act all "she'll be right" about it. The second go to sleep at 7pm, and "sleep" for about 10 hours, but actually wake up every every hour or two and basically actually sleep for 2 hours anyway
Ah well, just one of those things that happens once you turn 30 I guess, like making noises Everytime you stand up ๐
I think it comes down to sleep cycles. We go in and out of deeper levels of sleep, and if you wake up at the right time you feel more refreshed than if you are woken up from a deep sleep. The cycles are a few hours long, so a three hour sleep can mean you wake naturally at a good time, but an extra hour might mean you wake up half way through one.
I'm in awe at the productivity. Getting to the cafe to grab a decafe was an effort today lol
