3. Hey Chair, IM Me

In the mean time, checking in.

[strategery blunder]

6. your AIM username?

Tried to look it up, but no avail.

[opihimoimoi]

16. click on the left icon

[LeftCoast]

2. I was just wondering where all the insomniacs were!

Howdy all!

:hi:

[opihimoimoi]

4. Howdy to All, Aloha too, Good Evening, oops late night up East.

[strategery blunder]

10. Watch tonight's hockey game?

*grudgingly* You guys did really well.

And it even came with one of those old-time fights at the end.:evilgrin:

Edited to add question mark

[LeftCoast]

11. No...still haven't done the hockey thing

I don't know anybody here in SF who's into hockey. :(

[strategery blunder]

13. Didn't watch it on TV?

If they didn't at least have it on ESPN, well, that's sad. I watched it and I don't live in either Colorado or the Bay area.

If you didn't know about it, I suppose I'll forgive you.:) But you missed a really good fight at the end.:evilgrin:

[LeftCoast]

15. I didn't hear about it till after

I saw the fight thread earlier and realized what I'd missed out on.

Hey...didn't you tell me they didn't really fight anymore?

[strategery blunder]

29. I told you they don't fight AS OFTEN.

There are still some really good fights in the playoffs, though, as evidenced by tonight's events.

Edited to change tense. Also, the Avs got called for THREE OR FOUR penalties relating to the fight. (Might have been more, but the scoreboard only had enough room to record 4 penalties per team) SJ might have already been on the power play; I don't recall.:)

5. Yo, fellow sleep deprived DUers!

Hiya, Chair and everybody. Hope the day was kind to you all. **Raises a glass in honor of all those here.**

:toast:

[LastKnight]

7. iiiiiiim here... <yawn>

im gettin sick of these 22 and 1/2 hour days... i cant go forever on an hour and a half a night.

-LK

[LeftCoast]

8. Youch! That's a serious case of insomnia!

How long have you gone w/out significant sleep?

[LastKnight]

9. on and off for about 8 years.

but i usuially get about 3 hours at minimum...

stressful week

-LK

[LeftCoast]

12. I've always had insomnia

but it's more about getting to sleep. Once I'm out I can sleep in for hours usually. My body's natural cycle seems to have me going to sleep at about 3 or 4 am and sleeping till about noon.

[LastKnight]

go to sleep late... wake up round 5 or 6...

between the time i finially fall asleep and wake up, i sleep like a rock though.

-LK

[LeftCoast]

17. Maybe you just don't need as much sleep as most mortals?

:)

[LastKnight]

18. its possible...

of course i dont WANT to get up that early... but school makes it a necessity... but i dont seem to suffer from it much if at all.

-LK

[LeftCoast]

19. Are you a student, or do you teach?

I'm just finishing up my last semester (for the moment). Time to go back to work. Feh. :)

[LastKnight]

20. HS senior... got about a month left nt

[LeftCoast]

22. Well, I graduated in '88 but I remember my last month

I wanted to get out of that place so bad I thought I was going to puke. I'm not one of those folks who look back fondly on HS. My senior year was ok, but I'm glad my highschool years are behind me.

Congrats on your upcoming graduation! What are your plans?

[LastKnight]

24. run far, far, away and never look back...

HS sucked for me, pretty much the worst years of my life... im planning on keeping in touch with about 3 or 4 friends and the rest... fuck em... im out... im moving on.

im headed to concordia, in Moorehead MN next fall. from there, who knows.

-LK

[LeftCoast]

25. How large is your HS?

You're in SD, right? I'm guessing fairly your HS is fairly small?

[LastKnight]

30. its the second largest in the state...

a few thousand people... about 500-600 ish in my class... not too big, not too small either. washington high school outta sioux falls

-LK

[LeftCoast]

31. Wow...didn't realize

Not that much smaller than mine. I had ~800 in my class and about 4,000 in the HS total. I'm still in contact with some HS friends, but we're drifting further and further apart as time goes on.

[SarahB]

14. Will I ever sleep again?

Perhaps when my soul
Can find a little peace
I will not sit here
And lie so very numb
Deadened I've become.
Odd complexities
Leave me without peace
All seeming endless.
I'm simply a muse
And doomed to be such.

Goodnight.

[Endangered Specie]
