Sleep

It has been two years since I've been this bad. I haven't slept a good night since last Tuesday. Been averaging less than an hour a day. Part of it was my bus trip. Three days on the bus. Finally crashed last night and got five hours... I used to say, "There's time to sleep when I'm dead."

Now I say, "I'm dead if I don't sleep."
 
Last night, actually early this morning I was working and the Ops center called me to follow up on a problem. The guy said he was surprised I was still active on the computer system. I thought "You're kiddin', right?" but we went on with a problem we had to fix. I guess I am good for something: staying up late and fixing things.
 
Best thing I've found to help me get to sleep is Vistaril. I take 50mg-75mg about 30 minutes before rack time, and it does a pretty good job. I still wake up throughout the night, but it does help to initially get to sleep. Don't know about the rest of ya, but I've learned to live on 2-4 hours of sleep a night, not by choice....
