What do you do when you can't sleep?

[Patriot Ink Tattoo]

I use to sleep walk when I was a kid, but suddenly stopped in Jr High. But that aside I think people would enjoy these sleepwalking stories you have. 'specially the way you worded it. I propose you start a new thread right away! scratch propose, I demand!

[Tight-Lines]

i dont use a site so sometimes i just straight up f*ck up when the fletching is messed up or the arrows get bent

Robin Hood didn't use sights either.

Too many stories. I was vegan for about fifteen years and when my non-vegan wife and I got together I would raid the fridge for cheese in my sleep, and in the meantime get up to all sorts of nonsense. I would lay books out in patterns on the floor, speak in an Irish accent (which I haven't done since I was 5) and also draw weird pictures. There's tons more......maybe one day I will start a thread.

More sleeping tips - washing your feet is relaxing, but the best way to go to sleep is to read something good, but not too good. Cormac McCarthy is too fucking good for me to read before sleep.

I found out recently that cheese has opiate like effects which could explain why you tripped the light fantastic.

Where did you hear about that? It's interesting, and it explains why people get addicted to it, and also why the freaky dream thing might not be a myth. I have sleepwalked regularly since I was a kid, but it escalated when I crashed off the vegan wagon.

vegan wagon rhymes! HAHAHAHAHa oh shit! Sorry guys, that one got me!

sleep? did someone say sleep?! that shit is no good for you except for the occasional nightmare that makes horror movies seem like saturday morning cartoons. i usually just go until my body collapses for a couple hours then more coffee! you'd be surprised at how much you can do in a day when sleep isn't even a consideration. one word, GO!

Shit I drink a pot of Black Silk Folgers before bed and sleep like a baby. When I can't, its gotta be Rosanne on TVland or DVR'ed Ancient Aliens!!

If go near coffee after 8 I'll be up to sunrise. I'm super caffeine sensitive.

you're not doing it right, you're never supposed to stop drinking coffee then it doesn't matter what time it is. :)

[RoryQ]

The problem with coffee before bed is that it's a diuretic that will have me up to pee, to put it bluntly...

[gougetheeyes]

i stand in the kitchen and shoot at the bathroom

Because you hate that fucking bathroom.

Haha I had that mentality until I said up consistantly for 36 hours straight. You can start hallucinating if you don't sleep enough. But at the time i was working full time and had fulltime university...plus all the drinking of course. If you don't sleep you can be very surprised how much you can get done in a day. Start work at 5 am, school in late afternoon, then hit the pub till 3am

You could go for the Keith Richards record of 9 days although that was set in the pre drug-tested 70's LOL.

Ancient aliens is pretty baffling!

Sleep? What's that? I have a 3 year old, an 11 month old, a wife who has a herniated disk in her neck, I own a shop and tattoo full time. I really don't have time for sleep. But when I do lie awake in bed at 4am I think to myself, "what am I have for lunch"

[Ursula]

I'm the type to just lay in bed and toss about until I finally fall asleep. I think it was Kev who said working out helps him sleep, I find the same. Days I works out I sleep a lot easier.

...rollover, try to sleep.
