So, I wake up at 5:00 AM every morning, so I try to get to bed at 9:00. It's 10:14 and I'm repeating this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqdaKZW48KU&feature=related) over and over again. :kakapo:

What are things you do instead of sleep?

What do I do instead of sleep? I watch tv to spend my time. Lately I've been watching Phineas and Ferb, and that's actually pretty entertaining. Sometimes I do some random stuff online if there's anything to do online.

Work. It's pretty stupid. I think sleeping may be better for me.

Things I do when I'm trying to sleep, but can't?

Minecraft.
GBA games.
Complain on Twitter about how I can't sleep.
Toss and turn in bed and contemplate the finer things in life, like whether or not I can be bothered to go use the bathroom.

Things I consciously do instead of sleep?

Derp around on the internet.
Play vidya.

I go to bed pretty regularly for because I'm a bitch in the morning if I don't sleep enough and class sucks when you're tired. I pretty much only stay up if I need to finish homework.

I go to bed when BJ goes to bed at 23:00, but I read until like 2:00. Last night, though, I posted here, browsed Reddit, and watched Grey's Anatomy, The Vampire Diaries, and Private Practice until almost 4:00. On my phone.

I play LEGO Harry Potter and I listen to Stephen Fry read through the books, which is better than sleep, sex and food... and all of those combined.

I'm actually pretty similar. I head to bed at least a solid eight hours before my alarm goes off, every night.

Usually. :shifty: Sometimes I get caught up in a Civ game or something and it doesn't happen.

Haha, I try to be pretty strict about my bed time, but sometimes I get into derping around online before bed. xD

Lately I harass Kali and FOA and laugh at PG rant about how much we hate him.


Which is a lot.

Then I fall asleep around 11pm-1am.

Internet.

It also doesn't matter what I'm doing originally that keeps me from going to bed either because what really does me in is watching ____stupid thing on Youtube which has OH-SO-MANY stupid related things to the original stupid thing I was just watching. It is an endless spiral of despair.

That or I'm playing NyanCat on my phone. Opps.

Stay up and look $# up on my MetroPCS. It's not an iPhone, so it's a real waste of time.

Sometimes, I simply lie in bed and think relentlessly.

which I used to call "episodes" because I thought they psychotic in nature but have recently learned are common to people like me who have epilepsy (or even migraines) and can be seen as a precursor so I pretty much have to tell people immediately after having one and am currently trying to figure out a way to inform people while I'm having them since during an "aura", I don't have full awareness or self-control and simply look as if I'm staring blankly for no apparent reason (which I do often as a thinker anyway)... although these are beyond my control.

I'm usually awake for two or three days at a time anyway, and I work and go to school online, so it's harder for me to consider staying up late as "stupid," but I guess sometimes when I should be sleeping I stay up an extra two or three hours beasting on StepMania.

Stupid shit I do instead of sleep? Well tonight even though I'm actually not feeling too great (definitely getting a cold! Booo!) I decided at 04:33 hours that you know, my room would provide my laptop at least with better wi-fi signal if I rearranged the room right there and then. This is how my room ended up being torn apart and put (mostly) back together over the course of the next 2 hours in answer to the unasked question, did it improve my wi-fi signal? Well yes, yes it did however it also may have nerfed my 360's wi-fi signal. I may discreetely invest in a suitable network repeater if I can find one cheap enough.

Tumblr. Alllll night. Because my boyfriend doesn't get off work until 11 at night, so I have to do something to pass the time.

Stare at this computer screen. Keeps you awake for hours on end. Reading always gets me to sleep. ALWAYS. Pretty common stuff: tv, the internet, video games...sex?

The more tired I am the more I get into the music I'm listening to. I want to quit my job and just rock out for the rest of my life right now.

I watch Nirvana live at the Paramount on BBC 4 which is pretty fucking awesome.

Having just come back from playing a gig to twelve people it has definitely improved my mood!

It is a hamster. I was looking at pictures of hamsters and I found that, and so listened to that song. Why was I looking at pictures of hamsters? Well I like hamsters.
