How Much Sleep Do You "Need", And Has It Changed Over Time?

I keep hearing how, as you get older, you need less sleep. I have not found that to be the case with me. I have also heard of people who only "need" two or three hours of sleep a night to be fully functional (and they only sleep a few hours a day for years).

And just for funzies, have you ever tried first and second sleep? Here is a fact filled article about it: Humans Used to Sleep in Two Shifts, And Maybe We Should Do It Again https://www.sciencealert.com/humans-used-to-sleep-in-two-shifts-maybe-we-should-again

Had to Surrender My Dog Today

When we were married, my wife and I had two dogs. Wally loved my wife, and Ellie loved me. When we separated, I took Ellie and she took Wally. That was last summer. Everything seemed fine until this past Saturday. A package of mine was sent to my old address, so I needed to visit my ex. She ended up forcing me to take Wally. With my new living conditions, there was absolutely no way to keep him. And I promise you that I thought of everything. It just wasn't going to work. So, I surrendered him to the same rescue I got him from ten years ago when he was only 7 months old. While we were waiting for the woman to come pick him up, I gave him a goodbye petting. He started licking my hand. Then he was taken away forever.

Do you remember the first time you smoked rubber?

I have only driven cars with weak engines than can't pull the skin off a pudding, so I had to resort to test drives at the dealership. Always a let down when the salesman insists on coming with you.

Is There A Way I Can Block Myself?

I'm getting really tired of reading my frivolous posts.

When Was the Last Time You Went a Day Without tRump?

Can you remember a full 24 hour period when you did not mention him, think about him, read about him, or hear about him on the radio or TV?

I can't recall a full 24 hour period this happened for me over the last 2.5 years.

I Really Dislike Pleated Pants

And that's all I have to say on the matter.
