    Angry OMG I am such a moron!!!

    So I've totally had my sleep cycle screwed up lately and wanted to get back to normal. Tried a few days ago, didn't work. The only way I can really do it is to stay up for a day and crash at like 10pm then I'll sleep til @ 9am because I wore myself out from staying up so long. So I was gonna do that on Sunday - woke up @ 6PM! on Sat, so decided to just stay up on Sun to turn myself back around. Did that, but @ 7pm started crashing really hard and took a nap for like an hour. Got sleepy @ 2am, went to bed. That would've been ok, except then I never could sleep! Couldn't turn the brain off, just couldn't.

    Got fed up at like 6am (keep in mind this is Monday morning now) and just got up. Still not getting sleepy by noon, so figured MAYBE I can hold out today and stay up at least til dark. Of course not, I crashed @ 3:30. Dammit. Woke up at 7, saw the light outside, thought great it's 7am I must've really needed the sleep. Saw bf's missed call, figured I'd call back in the afternoon. Checked email, went back to bed, slept more, woke up at 12. Thought, well it's a lil late, but noon is ok, I musta really been exhausted. Then realized........IT'S DARK OUTSIDE! Wha???? What day is this??? Look at the cell - time says 12:02am, 7/25!

    CRAP! I woke up at 7PM Mon and I guess due to previous lack of sleep, thought I'd slept til 7AM Tues. So now I'm up at midnight Monday night, wide awake, nothing to do and pissed off that now I'm gonna have to stay up again today to fix my sleep cycle. GEEEEEEZZZZ!!! LOL

    I dunno why I'm having such trouble sleeping properly lately, I have never had this problem before. Stress? ugh

    Probably all that ridiculous heat out there Bridgette combined with the fact that you work a night shift. You think being able to sleep during the day during this kind of weather would be to our advantage. I've always had worse bouts with insomnia during the summer, even with the AC running.

    Even after seven years of working graveyard, I've never gotten accustomed to it simply because when my off days come, I want to live like a normal person and enjoy the sunshine. That's what ends up screwing my sleep cycle up. I wish there was something to do in this podunk town at 3 AM besides going to IHOP.

    Once had a job where we would finish at 1 a.m. or 1:30. Would get home about 2 a.m.
    with driving time and walking to non authorized parking spot. This is nothing like the 4 a.m.
    closings many strippers endure, but perhaps similar. As long as I could sleep until 9 a.m. or 10 a.m., I was able to do a summer school class, or help out sometimes on the afternoon /noon shift at the restaurant I had worked at.

    But there was always some neighbor who would fire up the lawn mower at 0800. Or a garbage truck at 0830. The telephone with an aluminum siding sales pitch for my parents
    or some such annoyance.

    If you've got a quiet house, get off promptly, get home, take a benydryl right at closing
    at the club and try to sleep. Easy to say hard to do I know.

    Well, once I get on track I generally don't have trouble sleeping soon after work and waking up by noon. The problem comes when I do something to throw me off the routine, then I'm right back to up all night sleep all day. I think my bodyclock wants it that way But I HATE that. I wanna have time to do stuff before work, or just get out and do daytime activities on days off. I like doing goofy stuff like spend the afternoon at a waterpark, see a matinee, catch sushi happy hour at my fave japanese place, etc....and if I sleep til 5pm every damn day I miss out on all that stuff Not to mention it puts me in a foul mood for the rest of the day cuz I feel like I wasted a day in bed.

    So I've been up since midnight, and this afternoon (when I'll need to be getting ready for a date with the bf) I'll be ready to sleep. Heh, the bf will be very entertained with tonight's date I'm sure, I'll be sleepy as hell and that makes me even MORE goofy than I already am. At least I'll be able to sleep at a decent hour tonight. FINALLY

    Oh yeah. The thing that really got me is I actually woke up at 7pm last night and thought it was 7am this morning. I even went back to bed thinking I'd wake up @ 9 or 10am. lol

    I'm with you...I hate waking up too late because I feel like I wasted day time. Sometimes I get used to staying up really late and then I realize all I do with my time after work is hang out on the internet and watch crappy TV. I'd rather be going to the gym, shopping, getting errands done, etc.

    On my day off from work, I love to get up "early" (like 10am) because I really enjoy having a full day to shop and stuff.

    I get home from work around 3am. I walk the dogs and come on stripperweb and try really hard to be in bed by 4:30am....and get up at noon. I think that's reasonable.

    Right there with you guys; been going to sleep at 5AM and getting up at 11AM lately.

    Totally killing my gym schedule.

    I suffer from insomnia.. and since my husband is deployed it has just gotten worse. I finally went to the base hospital and got something to help me sleep.. but I was going for awhile where I'd stay up until 4 and have to get up at 6 to be at work by 8.. and then come home at 7pm and be wired all night long.. craziness!

    Currently, I am having an ok sleep schedule, but it took me almost a month after I stopped dancing to get on somewhat of a regular pattern.. and every now and then, it will come back and I can't sleep again.. and I hate it.. but what do you do?

    I try not to get salacious on here, but my suggestion to get to sleep is a long session of self-love.

    Or working out. Or leave C-SPAN channel on the TV. Hee hee.

    Heh, sometimes the self-love helps me get to sleep and sometimes it doesn't. Lately it doesn't.

    But, YAY I'm on track once more. We'll see how long it lasts I kept busy all day yesterday until date time and after the boy left last night I could barely stay awake to masturbate. Heh, I was out by midnight, up at 9:30. YAY
