I should, but I'm having an amazing conversation with a friend of mine...

Did you know that taking long periods without sleep causes your synapses to fire less effeciently, and your cognitive abilities are impaired? If so... why is it that I'm much more eloquent when I'm exhausted?

Psh, I just noticed that. You just like a woman! "You not talkin to me? Wahhhh wahhh!"

Haha, freak, not sure how much time I've got, seeing as my brother is still in control of my bedtime (has to do with the arrangement of the house), but he leaves in the monin', so in future weekends that won't be so.

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzit IM sentinated.

Because as your body "grows" weary, your "motor" functions begin to slow down. This includes your speech. This means that your brain actually processes your thoughts before you say something.

So, this probably means that you normally don't think before you speak. Oh wait, that's me

Good call. I like to shoot from the hip a lot.

However, I'm never at a massive loss for eloquence. And moreover, I'm not speaking, I'm typing, something I can do at roughly the same speed that I think (when I'm really "in the zone," per se)... soo.....

Sleep is for babies and the elderly.

I used to sleep very little, like 10 hrs a week if I was lucky. I would always say "sleep is for the weak". **** it, I'm weak. I've learned the way, and the way is to stay in bed every min I possibly can. Sleep is your reward for working hard

It's also healthier to take short 15 - 30 min naps during the day then sleep a large extended amount at one time.

I like sleep but it doesn't like me. I always wake up a freaking zombie and never sleep in like I want.

Damn internal clock....
