[KitchenWitch]

Me - insomnia.

[Tom Kitten]

1. adrenalin

Hi KiWi :hi:
I went to a DU meetup tonight and got back two hours ago and it's 2:35 and can't sleep yet...

that's why, I'm still half buzzed and loopy as always...

[KitchenWitch]

4. LOL

Sounds like you got your batteries recharged so to speak! :D

[MrScorpio]

2. Weird body clock

And my night owl ways

[KitchenWitch]

5. me too

:D

[bliss_eternal]

3. I've always been a night owl--

even as a kid. I'm wired weird. I have no use at all for daytime hours. 9:00 in the morning, is the middle of the night for me. I'm happiest in the middle of the night.

[KitchenWitch]

6. Me to

My circadian rhythm dances to the beat of a nocturnal drummer.

[AntiCoup2K4]

7. My body wants to sleep, but my mind doesn't

During the week it sucks, but on the weekend, oh well......

[KitchenWitch]

9. I know what you mean

:D

[leftynyc]

8. Also insomnia

But I admit, I like the mornings. All's quiet and first crack at the paper.

[KitchenWitch]

10. I like the sunrise

when we get them!

[AtomicKitten]

11. Mom?

I'm a night person.

I could easily stay up all night reading, watching movies, news-cruising the internet.

And then sleep all day.

[KitchenWitch]

14. LOL

welcome to my world

[SmokingJacket]

12. Insomnia, too...

went to a wedding last night and had a bit too much to eat and drink...

... had to come here and check what I posted last night when I got home (PWI).

[KitchenWitch]

15. no threads deleted I hope LOL

[nytemare]

13. See here...lol.

:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

16. I saw that

I love people who think they are the only people in the world and do not have to be burdened with consideration for others :sarcasm:

[nytemare]

58. Those are the people to ask if ignorance truly is bliss.

They are surely the ones with the answer!

:hi:

[ghostsofgiants]

17. I went to sleep extremely early

Slept from 8:45 PM to about 4:#) AM.

[KitchenWitch]

18. wow

[ghostsofgiants]

19. Haha, yeah

I was pooped. I was trying to make it to midnight, but just couldn't do it.

[KitchenWitch]

21. LOL

That is funny!

[carpetbagger]

20. Fever, headache, work calling.

All the good things in life.

[KitchenWitch]

22. yuk

Hope you feel better soon!

[annabanana]

23. had to 'go'

Then my mind turned on and I couldn't slide back into dreamland. I don't have to go out for bagels until 7:30 and church isn't until 10... So I'm just drinking coffee and browsing around the site.

[soothsayer]

24. Too darn hot to sleep comfortably, and slight headache. bleah

[tavalon]

25. Nightshifter

Luckily, I am a nightowl as well.

[seriousstan]

26. Alcohol, video games and Appalachian chronic.

Twitchy, relaxed headshotting twilight.

[In_The_Wind]

27. *yawn*

internal body clock = not good when you're sharing a room at meet-ups x(

[KitchenWitch]

28. Goodness

I hear that loud and clear!

[jonnyblitz]

29. I was up at 6:30 am . I don't plan on going back to bed..

If i go to bed around midnite or 1am getting up at 6:30 or so is normal for me. The navy taught me how to do that. Always early early mornings in the navy...

I am meeting a DUer today in New Haven, speaking of meetups. I will be the first DUer he has met. There is this huge goth festival all weekend in New Haven and we are meeting at some "goth picnic" on the new haven green. I figured we would combine shooting the shit with people watching. He doesn't even like goth and i could take it or leave it these days but it will be fun for a few hours..

:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

30. Cool

I am going to a pool party today, then I am taking my son to the farm for a week...dropping him off to spend time with our cousins!

[jonnyblitz]

34. have you been to bed at all?

are you gonna be wiped out as the day goes on? that sounds like an active day..

[KitchenWitch]

37. I did sleep for awhile (about 3 hours)

I will likely take a short nap here shortly.

[In_The_Wind]

40. wish I'd known about the festival yesterday

New Haven would have been a great ride cause I couldn't ask for any better weather.

I know you'll have fun meeting another DUer today, maybe you can talk him into meeting more of us in D. C.

[jonnyblitz]

42. he never could make it to the boston gatherings so i doubt

he would be able to do D.C. he works weekends usually. Bigwillq is who i am meeting btw..

[In_The_Wind]

50. then ... it's really great you two can get together today

maybe we should plan a mid-week meet-up for the DUers who are never off on the weekends ... that could be lots of fun ... I'm sure there must be DUers who would come ... like the teachers who have the summer off

[Mutley]

31. Dogs.

Dogs. Dogs. Must teach dogs to sleep in.

[KitchenWitch]

32. They can't sleep in

since they sleep all day LOL

[Mutley]

35. Well, they ain't sleeping today.

It is my mission in life to keep them up all day long.

[AuntieM1957]

63. Any ideas on what will get my schnauzer pup to shut up

and go to sleep?

If he wasn't so darn cute, he'd be in serious jeopardy.

[texanwitch]

33. I waiting for my cousin to drive in from Austin so then we can go to

the beach at Galveston, Texas with is about 50 miles from Houston.

To excited to sleep, I haven't seen my cousin in almost 2 years.

Everybody have a nice day.

[KitchenWitch]

36. I enjoyed Galveston when I visited Houston on business several years ago!

I happened to go during a stretch when the temps did not dip below 100 for over 3 weeks...I believe it is called July! :D

[texanwitch]

39. August is just has bad, and I wouldn't go in the water for any amount

of money. This summer has not been that hot, besides we will be on ferry going back and forth, we love to ride the ferry boat.

[BikeWriter]

57. The ferry is fun to ride. Have you ever eaten at "Stingarees"

on Bolivar? If not, try it sometime; the fried soft shell crabs are delicious!

[BikeWriter]

56. Hee hee hee! It does get warm down here...

It was this time of the year when I got back from a year in Alaska years ago. It took me forever to adjust back to it.

[Mutley]

38. A good friend of mine moved to Galveston from Maryland a few years ago.

:cry:

[texanwitch]

41. Is your friend in the medical field, there is a very large hospital area

at Galveston. I would love to live in Galveston if I could make a living there, but it is just a short distance away from Houston.

[Mutley]

46. Well, he wanted to go to nursing school, but hasn't been able to yet.

His wife is a librarian, and has family out there.

[texanwitch]

51. Galveston is a great place to go to nursing school, I have serval nurse

friends who live at Galveston. There really isn't that many really
decent paying jobs there, except in the medical field.

The port area pays OK but not much else.

I move there in a minute if I could.

I think there is a medical school at Galveston to.

Galveston has open beaches, at least for now, so it is a great place for families to go for day trips.

[Mutley]

52. Well, I miss them.

They have the cutest kids ever!

[Wetzelbill]

44. you have friends?

:)

[Mutley]

53. Hey!

Yes I have friends. :P

Good of you to show up, buddy! Our thread got locked! :cry:

[Wetzelbill]

54. Noooooooooo!!!!!!

[Mutley]

55. Thats okay. I started a new one.

[Wetzelbill]

43. woke up to prepare to watch politics and to read some newspapers

[KitchenWitch]

45. Hi Wetzelbill

[Wetzelbill]

47. hello back

Good to see you too.

Good Morning!

[mvd]

48. About to go on vacation and..

[KitchenWitch]

49. Have a wonderful vacation

:hi:

[mvd]

59. Thanks

The hotel that I'll be staying at has internet access, so I can at least read DU a little each day..

[Ladyhawk]

60. It's only 9:30.

:shrug:

I'm a PST kind of person. :D

[Kathleen04]

61. I had the best of intentions for going to bed early!

Tried but my mind is not having it..so insomnia here too. x(

Sigh and I have to get up at 8.

[AuntieM1957]

62. My dog started howling about an hour ago while I was

trying to get to sleep. Damn, he just started again.

I think a possum or something must be hanging around outside.

Now, I'm wide awake.
