Sleep

One of the best parts of the job I have is interacting with people.  Hearing what they have to say, reading what they think, and sharing my own stories.  That's part of what our daily Enquiring Minds surveys are about..... they're also about excuses to get you free stuff.

Imagine sleeping as much as 17 hours a day.

Every night, I tell myself I'm going to go to bed early.  Every morning, I curse myself a little bit when I wake up because I didn't go to sleep sooner.  Well, I know a lot of us feel that way sometimes. You're not the only person who would consider KILLING A MAN right now if it meant you could get another half hour of sleep.

Well, I'm back after two whole weeks of vacation (Sorry, they haven't sacked me yet).  I gotta thank all the folks here at the stations for filling in for me while I was loafing and playing Nintendo. I know Kaleb didn't enjoy getting up earlier!  And I even found myself changing my routine a bit.

As it turns out, New York is not really the city that never sleeps. A new study ranks which cities around the globe get the most and least sleep.

This pooch must be having one heck of a dream.

Whether you work early in the morning,  the "normal" nine to five, or are a nocturnal person - sometimes getting up can be difficult.  The bed is so warm, so comfy... your dreams were so nice.  The world seems so cold and harsh that it can definitely take some effort.

I've been reaching out to you guys and asking you a question every day, and you've been giving some great answers. We've talked about everything from cod liver oil to the story of your life to your sleeping habits, and you haven't been shy about your opinions!

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day about a possible visit.  I was mentioning to him our spare room, which we also use when the girls are here for them to have a room of their own on weekends.  I told him that the room was just fine, but that sometimes the closet door might poke open (it's an old house).  He had a slight freakout.

I'm one of those people that remembers my dreams. When I go to sleep, strange things happen.
