***Official Ants Insomniac Thread***

This is for all us Ants who just can't seem to be able to fucking sleep. Just figured there should be a place for us besides Ants in general.

I don't want to go to sleep, but I don't want to be awake. Quite a pickle I find myself in.

I'm entertaining myself by posting triangles of smilies over in dmbc. I think that means I need to go to bed.

Haha...yeah I saw that. I'm downloading and listening to "A Live One" by Phish for the first time. It's so fucking sweet.

Where are you downloading it from? Did iTunes finally get it or are you using more nefarious methods?

Re: ***Official Ants Insomniac Thread***

I can't seem to get into bed until about 2 AM. It fucking sucks. Some nights I'm up until 4 just watching tv. Other nights (like tonight) I'm stuck writing papers.

I envy those people who can go to bed at 11 PM. I'm usually not even starting to feel tired until 1 AM.

Sweet. They didn't have it a while ago when I was first getting into Phish. I'll have to pick this up next time I stumble across $10.

I feel ya. Most nights I'm just up listening to music until all hours of the night. I did just get done writing a philosophy paper though. Funny the thoughts your mind comes up with at 2:30 am. Makes for a good philosophy grade that's for sure.

Yeah you're actually witnessing the birth of a Phan tonight. I've never listened to them until tonight and I'm blown away by how awesome this shit is.

Well it's hitting three. I even took some antihistamines for this cold. You'd think I'd be out cold by now.

I'm always a night person but now that I don't have classes and I'm working 7-midnight every day, I'm way bad at this. Sleep no early than 3, usually around 4 give or take an hour in either direction.

Yeah I tried to lay down a few minutes ago and go to sleep but I kept moving too much and my gf got pissed cause it's 5 am. Looks like it's couch/internet surfing me tonight/morning.

I'm one of the few ppl still without a smartphone of some type. I used to be able to at least see my gmail and facebook but tmobile has limited what this "data" plan can do for non-smartphone people.

I had to mod the phone a little bit to let me use a good browser so I can go to gmail, facebook and just about everything now

Re: ***Official Ants Insomniac Thread***

I go through periods of this - but I wouldnt say it's normal for me.

I'm normally not tired by 1am, but I can generally fall asleep by 2. If something's bothering me though, I'll go a week with only getting 3 or 4 hours a night (used to be much worse in college, but now that I work 9-6, I cant afford it.)

Totally a night person though. I despise mornings (unless you're in nature - camping, log cabin, whatever - and there is coffee available) and sunlight is overrated.
