What do you do before you go to sleep.
I read for half an hour to an hour, write for 20 minutes, Talk to David about what happened that day, say half a rosary and then turn off the lights off.

I burn grapefuits by searin the juices in. Blood?

Last week I went to a techno festival so that meant I just dropped on the bed, fully clothed, and tried to sleep. Failed miserably so got back up and went to work.
Normal working day? Then I either read or watch a video before I go to sleep.

I usually just collapse into bed exhausted with no ritual at all. How dull.

I read for half an hour, then nurture romantic illusions about girls for about 20 mins.

I don't do anything at all, either. In fact, often I don't even bother changing, just doze off. I think it's a holdover from my drunk days.

Drunk = stuff quiche down myself, dance round to Romeo, stagger upstairs when burst of energy fades, put contact lenses in the wrong cases, attempt to remove make up, fall into bed, pass out, have very lurid dreams.

Sober = remove and clean contact lenses, brush teeth, take off eye makeup, wash face, watch some TV, check alarm is set, go to sleep.

I think I prefer myself drunk.

I go round the house turning off electrical appliances with the little woman while singing a song describing what I'm doing.

Excellent dirt vicar! who is this little woman? is she a micronaut? I wish I too had a similar tiny female companion, and a hymn for disabling electrical appliances

― Mike Hanle y, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I believe the latter appears on Hefner's forthcoming LP.

― Nick, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

smoke, drink a coffee, turn off the telie,put some music on, smoke, drink another coffee, read, smoke, turn the light off...

― Geoff, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Coffee? Before going to bed? Are you MAD? You'll be telling me you have cheese next.

― Emma, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Cheese before bed = classic.

― Pete, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I have coffe before bed too, and alchohol will kepp me wide awake all night. THREADLINKER! FIND THE CAFINE = DEPRESSANT ALCHOLO = STIMULANT THREAD!

― Mike Hanle y, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

cheese before bed gives you the best dreams, espec. cheese on toast - warm dairy apparently is like some kind of mild sleeping pill. hence, coffee with milk = Geoff sleeping very well, geoff without coffee = little sleep, lots of angst, possible manic oncoming.

― Geoff, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh, I forgot to say I usually do a line of speed before going to bed. With warm milk.

― Nick, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Kate, weren't your "drunk days" like, last week or something?

― Sean, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

A week away from an addiction is like a lifetime

― Mike Hanle y, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Depends.

Normal sane night: At around maybe 11 or 11:30 I wash my face off (unless I want to sleep in, then I just take the shower at night), brush my teeth, get changed, lotion up, go lie down and listen to my headphones, doze off (usually at 4st 7lb)

Drunk ass night: Um, stagger around like an idiot, make inane comments about the world and how much I hate everyone and how fantastic my night was (without explaining why, until the next day, and then the story is like infinitely less cool), and pass out somewhere fully dressed and made up. Last time I did that, I ran around turning on and off the A/C, and then passed out fully dressed WITH MY SHOES ON. That's easily the worst thing I ever did.

Excellent dirt vicar! who is this little woman? is she a micronaut? I wish I too had a similar tiny female companion, and a hymn for disabling electrical appliances

She's not quite as tiny as you think. And the song, it's not really a hymn, it's more like a Noel Coward show tune about the importance of fire prevention.

For the love of god, does no one remember the public information film I am referring to?

― The Dirty Vicar, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Sometimes I am awakened by the horses that live upstairs and come home at 3 am on weeknights.

― Mike Hanle y, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Do you live in a barn?

― Ally, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

He lives in a Shed 7.

― Nicole, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Fucking hell, that was hilarious. Way to send me into another coughing fit, thanks.

I'm going to remember that line til the end of time. And with my luck, recycle it on someone who has no clue who Shed 7 are.

― Ally, Friday, 27 July 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

They won't know how lucky they are.
