3. Crazy sleep schedule, I guess.

Visiting the family, - we keep different hours.
Or, it could have been that 2 hour nap I had this afternoon. :)

How are you doing, SG?

Naps can throw you off!

I'm doing well. Starting to get a bit tired myself.

2. Me neither.

So I'm awake, watching Twin Peaks, and awaiting 8:30 so I can get ready for school.

And it wasn't the church's fault--I would have lost my faith no matter what church I was a member of. It was inevitable.

70. I work 12hr shifts on the weekend

Factor time in for commuting, sleep, shower/groom/dress and I don't really have time for anything else but a meal and a little bit of tv before leaving again. :cry: Weekdays are when I get the chance to do some stuff for myself (after I get errands done).

34. I've heard that if you can't get 3 hours, don't try.

Or at least consider it a nap, rather than deep sleep... just enough to keep you going thru the day.

Good luck, Sofa.
