The witty banter of insomniacs. |
|
Lets hear a little. I am stuck in a hotel room because my job flew me out to Oakland on a surprise assignment and I can't sleep.
Yes, it's all about me isn't it?

the only way to live, especially if it means that ... well, it has to mean something - why else would it be so entertaining(not great word choice, but hey, what do you expect from an insomniac)?

7. I was at the sports bar here watching the game earlier... |
|
...I was the only Laker fan in a bar full of "we were kings fans and now we are fans of whoever is playing the Lakers" fans. Needless to say, I left a little early.

14. That's kind of weird. |
|
You're short staffed, and laying off people? And you have a hiring freeze? What the heck kinda company are you in?

Time Zone differences (I'm Eastern US). But I think it could be considered insomnia even at about 2-3 AM. It all just depends upon what has to be done the next day, and when you have to get up to do those things
