Sometimes I've trouble sleeping at night, but usually I will sleep on the day when I've got nothing to do. I'm browsing and surfing most of the time or reading when I can't sleep. Having many thought is always why i can't slept easily at night, or had to do something on the internet will makes my eyes open all night. :)

I have gone three whole days without any sleep at all. I used to own my own newspaper and I was the only staff member. We had some big news going on in town and I stayed awake to cover it, then I had to write the articles and put the paper together to go to press. The following day I had to pick the papers up and deliver them to the county where I delivered them. And the following morning my son was leaving for a trip to play basketball in Switzerland with 365 Sports and Team USA so I had to make the trip to the air port. Needless to say I totally passed out on the way home as my husband drove. I do often go a day or two without sleep.

I went six nights and seven days when I was in graduate school because I was running an experiment that required a data point be taken approximately every four hours. There was just not enough time to go home and get to bed and get any sleep, so I just stayed up. I did manage to fit a shower in every day and I was eating a little more. After the first couple of days, I quit feeling tired except for my eyes. On the seventh day after the experiment was done, I had a date and went to a movie which turned out to be a very boring movie. It was a first date so we weren't to the snuggling point yet. She ended up being the one that fell asleep not me. Then it was very difficult to fall asleep that night.

I go to bed late at night and I still can work all night. More than that would be too much I suppose:))For me the real problem is when I have to get up early in the morning.
