13. 10 years old, and NEVER sleeps before midnight.
She slept through the night at 3 weeks old. At 3 months old she stopped taking naps. She has the same metabolism I and my father have.... we just don't sleep much. 5-6 hours is more than enough.

She just hangs out in bed and reads or draws anime' ...

21. She sounds like a nightowl .
Which is cool because that means that she takes in everything during the day and relaxes it through her mind at night - thats how I was as a kid . ( I am still that way . See , I am still awake and its almost 4 am . )

She draws anime ? Cool !

28. My kid is the same way
She's 9yo, and if by some miracle she goes to bed early she'll be up in the middle of the night. My other kids sleep thankfully lol.

27. Thanks
My Economics Professor said that I am getting a high B because I didn't take the midterm test because of the election. I am very happy about that because I expected worse.

I am worried about the Western Civilization test because you have to remember passages from the bible and some of the prophets. :grr: I should have went to Sunday school instead of cutting class. :D

Thanks :hug:

40. Some new stuff, some southern rock...typical bar fare.

They're all air traffic controllers (as am I). I shoot about two gigs a month for them. Honestly, they're pretty damn good for a bar band.

31. A little over 2 years....
Most fun I ever had that didn't involve my wife!

Seriously, it's a blast. I play what I want, when I want, and have a great group of people involved that make it that much better. Now, if I can just cover my expenses...
