They say about half of all Americans are sleep deprived, including children.
They just have convinced themselves that their symptoms are something
normal, or even something ---- that floaty feeling, or getting inspirational
visions (actually dreaming while awake, since they can't do it while
asleep).

I know there is a small percentage of people who need less than 6 or 7 hours
of sleep, but it's unusual. (As is my need for 9 to 10 hours of sleep).

LOL! Oh, I know I NEED more, I just don't have time.

And those visions and stuff? I thought that was the muse talking. Eep.

Thank God I'm not the only one who considers sleep one of the most important
things in my day. I am at least an 8 hour if not more. I love my sleep
time and treasure it above all other activities. If I don't get enough
sleep I'm a grouch with a capital G.

ROFL! Yes, it does! I do crash and burn once a week and sleep for
about ten hours. Usually when I least expect it. Haw!

It *is* extremely important. I try to impress upon Kevin that he will be far
more efficient if he's well-rested.

You can actually do more if you sleep enough. They've found in study after
study that you become mistake-prone and weirdly careless (often in dangerous
ways) if you don't get enough sleep.

It even makes it dangerous to drive -- as if a lot of the people out there are
driving drunk (remember that when you're crossing the street, and be CAREFUL).

The stuff about Americans being sleep deprived, comes from professional
psychology studies.

Kidding aside, if you really do get "visions and stuff", it is likely to be
a sign that you are so sleep deprived, that you can't get adequate REM and
"dreaming" time. So you have them when you are awake. (I knew someone like
that. Seriously spooky).

Did you know squirrels have to wake up out of hibernation to sleep and dream
or they can't survive hibernation?

Driving sleep deprived, or also hung over, is no less dangerous than driving
drunk. I've heard it said it is more dangerous. Though that would probably
only be the case in that people know driving drunk makes you a bad driver
and try to consciously be more careful.

I watched a show about two years ago and they were talking about going thru
menopause. They said that one reason why women who are going thru the
"change" sometimes are in a bad mood. Heat flashes wake them up and do not
allow them to get adequate REM time. If you took anyone and jostled them
awake just about the time they were falling asleep, you'd find they were not
the friendliest person the next day.

The last of the beads are up. That's it. That's all I have. Until I
make more. Empty bead box... What a strange sight!

Ok woman, that's it! We're having your bed repossessed!
If the bead box is empty, you're getting entirely too much
sleep. Unless your eyelids are breaking the toothpicks
keeping them open.....

Ditto here. Never really thought about it before a week or so ago.

ROFL! Well, it's no longer empty. It now has four ugly beads in it.
LOL! I was working with a new reduciton glass last night and could NOT
get it to reduce to the brilliant gold that it was supposed to. Poop.

Oh, and I did a darling little knob for the drawer on the mahogany
watch case that I'll be using to tote my stuff to the gallery on the
23d.

I've been scoping out light industrial workspaces to lease, so I
slacked off on the torch for a few hours. *hanging head* I am SO sorry
and ashamed.

Heheheheheh!
