Wow, what a backlog!

I'm just about getting over it now. I worked the afternoon shift, then slept for three hours, ate a curry and half-dozed on the sofa until about 3am. I slept pretty much right through until 11.30 this morning, but I've had to skip lunch with my Dad in favour of a couple of hours slobbing on the sofa again before I go back to work this afternoon. It's amazing how much losing a night's sleep screws you up.

And you're only - how old, 31? Wait until you're my age, then it's even worse.

mmm sleep

im only 31 but feel ancient..especially with all the grey hairs im finding

ah, but it's such a magical age, we're neither running up the hill, or coming back down it - just partially halfway up and 'nearly' over it.

i wonder where that puts me then

On Cloud 9?

You'd think that it'd you up less as you get older seeing as how you (reportedly) need less sleep, but I've found the reverse to be true.

When we have a busy month end, and I get home after midnight (which is nearly every month) having started work at 8am it takes me around a week to get over it. But then I am in my mid-40s

I think ill need a push over the hill, can't walk that far anymore

Oh, Sho, you are only a youngster still Just you wait till you are my age (27)

Tch, when I was 31 I was regularly missing sleeping on a Saturday night completely! Although I did tend to go to bed at 6pm on a Sunday night.

I ocsionally do very* long days, up say 9 through to 4 or 6 AM the following day Though I doubt I could regualrly do the three or four days with no sleep that I did in my teens

Old age comes to us all eventually. Or in the case of Skanky, immediately.
