Poll question: Have you ever /really/ counted sheep in an attempt to get to sleep?

Just curious, I never have and I've spent many a sleepless night.

1. Yes, I have

But it got damn cold in the pasture.

3. Counting sheep, no...

Counting shots, yes.

[qnr]

5. Now that would be a plan n/t

[redqueen]

4. Yes.

It did not work.

[qnr]

7. I always thought I'd be the type to doze off, worry that I'd missed a few

and get all agitated and wide awake.

16. Me Too

didn't work for me either.

But hey those counting sheep on the Seely commercial are adorable.

[Vanje]

6. No. Of course not

Counting sheep is a stimulating activity!!!!!!!

[qnr]

9. You sound biased :) n/t

[Dr.Phool]

8. Freepers count sheep

for sexual bragging rights.

[qnr]

12. My porn star knowledge pretty much stops in the Annette Haven era,

I don't have too many to count.

15. I imagine I'm camping &gentle rain is falling on the tent.

I'm yawning right now.

[tridim]

17. Yes, and it works

But you have to move your eyeballs in a REM pattern, back and forth as you're counting. That's my theory anyway. It also helps to count backwards from 1000.

18. I have tried everything.

Consciousness is a fucking disease.

[Ellen Forradalom]

19. I've read 60,323 different Apache configuration scenarios

Always works for me.

[MrSandman]

20. Yes, but there were noo numbers on them...nt

[barb162]

21. yeah, it bores you to sleep

[neuvocat]

22. Stop counting sheep and start thinking about sex.

Whatever happens to be bothering you at the time will be completely forgotten and you'll have a great night's sleep. Seriously.

23. I count weird sheep

Sometimes, I count Redskins catching a ball in the endzone, their jersey number corresponding.

Or, I count sheep doing a little dance.

Never really worked that well for me.

LOL.

Doesn't work worth a shit as far as I'm concerned.
