Fell asleep on the bus the other day too and missed my stop (have fallen asleep before but usually wake in time) I'd say I sleep about 30 hours a week max

IMO like most things, you can train yourself into a pattern unless you do suffer from Insomnia. I used to be a bit like that Dodge, staying up until 2 etc then sleeping for 5-6 hours before work until I started my current job 7 years ago where I couldn't really afford to be feeling sleepy or tired during the day.

I got into the habit of getting to bed early (10ish) and before long I was into the habit and sleeping well. Nowadays I still more or less do the same and my routine would be that I'm in bed by about 10.30, watch a bit of telly or read and it's rare that I'm not asleep by about 11.30 before I get up around 7.

The only downside about a regular pattern is that at the weekends I'm up around 7 too even if I've been p!ssed the night before and had about 4 or 5 hours sleep.

If you're not pregnant, then I don't know what's depriving you of sleep, other than worrying about someone who might be!!!!!!:D

If you're still having trouble, come on down to Station Rd and watch Kildare County. That'll cure ye, quick like!

Did you not technically sleep like a baby....don't they wake up after a couple of hours and then stay awake crying (not saying you were crying, but hey, maybe you were!) for the rest of the nite, only falling asleep for a short time!!! :)

Slept like an incontinent geriatric is probably the opposite of slept like a baby.
