Re: Sleep.......

I try to get 7 1/2 - 8 hrs per night. I have no trouble doing that. Unless I have the horrible task of public speaking in my future, I fall right asleep. If I don't get at least 7 hours I am all fuzzy in my head and I say random bits throughout the day that make little sense. On the weekend I log in 9 hours. Nine hours is the perfect amount of time. I feel the best when I get 9. I know...that is a lot.

My father gets about 4-5 per night. He works a job that requires him to get up very, very early...and he fights off sleep all night long. When I lived at home (he was sleeping about 3-4 back then), I actually saw him fall asleep standing up! He asked his doctor if it was unsafe to sleep so little. His doctor had little worries. He said "you will sleep if you are tired". Well, I'm always afraid he will get tired while he is driving. I think that amount of sleep is unsafe for anyone!
