It's always frustrating to check how much sleep I got and see that despite being sound asleep from , say 1030 to 630 I got woken up multiple times by a kid and cats and to piss and etc and got sub 7 or something I think my one gift is the opposite of yuns - I can immediately fall asleep every time I go to bed, and sleep soundly until my alarm at which point I wake up instantly. I also take long (2-3hr) naps easily when they're available If I lived alone without pets and no alarm I could probably sleep 70 hours a week. And this is with me powering through a half dozen cups of coffee a day plus often having some at night before bed

There were people at my firm who just didn't turn off. And I could tell they weren't miserably tired. They just literally had more energy/juice than most other human beings. It wasn't some type of stimulants thing - I've met these people who simply always seem to need to be doing something to burn off their excess energy (mental, not just physical), and it never seems to stop.

And this is with me powering through a half dozen cups of coffee a day plus often having some at night before bed My experience is similar, but I have noticed that when I have cut back on caffeine, the ability/desire to nap diminished. That amount of caffeine is likely tiring you more than it's wiring you.

Even when I have time. I can't fall asleep anywhere, anytime. If I do nap, it's because I'm exhausted and then I wake up feeling like poo poo. Before kids, I couldn't even fall asleep at night easily. That has changed since kids. Thanks, kids! With dogs, kids, having to piss, or heartburn I probably get 5-7 hours a night. Waking up is hard for me. I don't and never have been able to pop right out of bed.

I sleep like a log for 8 hours straight as long as I stick to my exercise regimen, don't drink any booze, and am in my own bed. Most days I wake up feeling relaxed and collected with nary a care in the world. I maybe spent a little too much on my extremely luxurious mattress, high threadcount sheets, multiple pillows of varying types and a nice down comforter, but I really like my bed. Gonna hold of on having any kids until we have nanny robots after the water wars. Kawasaki Nun fucked around with this message at 17:19 on Oct 8, 2019 |

This feels like a superpower to me. I need several hours to unwind and do bullshit before I can lay down for 20-30 minutes to try and go to sleep. Up until I was about 30, probably one night a month I would just say "gently caress it" and stay up all night.

In other news, Cow trial is in the books, and Judge wants attorneys fees submitted by affidavit, and ruling will come down before the end of the week. I questioned a vet on the 1,200 to 1,400 cows who's rear end he stuck his arm up during the final week of October, 2017, and did cross on a guy named "Red Bone."

If I drink even 1 beer before bed now, I'm guaranteed to have to wake up to pee and probably have heartburn. Getting old sucks. I enjoy beer and wine. I just like sleep a lot more.

I get about seven hours of sleep per night. If I could, I'd get about 10 per night. When I get to work in the morning, I mostly stare and respond to emails that don't require much thought. From about 10-11:30 I'm super productive. Then I get hungry and go eat lunch. After lunch I mostly stare and respond to emails that don't require much thought for 30 minutes. From about 1:30 to 4:30, I'm locked in. Then I start getting tired and slowly get more and more tired until I fall asleep for the night. I'm good for about 4.5 hours of work a day.

I’m not sure if this has been raised yet, but why aren’t the judges and opposing counsel or anyone really referring these lawyers that participate in this horseshit to the bar? I guess it was hard to ding mob lawyers on ethical grounds too, but at least give them some consequences to consider.

I guess it was hard to ding mob lawyers on ethical grounds too, but at least give them some consequences to consider. Several of Bush's lawyers were reported for ethics violations. quote:he Department of Justice's Office of Professional Responsibility concluded in a 261-page report dated July 29, 2009, that Yoo committed "intentional professional misconduct" when he "knowingly failed to provide a thorough, objective, and candid interpretation of the law", and it recommended a referral to the Pennsylvania Bar for disciplinary action.[77][78] But, David Margolis, a career Justice attorney,[79] in a Memorandum dated January 5, 2010, countermanded the recommended referral.[80] While Margolis was careful to avoid "an endorsement of the legal work," which he said was "flawed" and "contained errors more than minor", concluding that Yoo had exercised "poor judgment", he did not find "professional misconduct" sufficient to authorize OPR "to refer its findings to the state bar disciplinary authorities".[80] It's the Kavanaugh Problem: once you're successful enough and sit in power, no amount of unethical conduct can ever disbar you. My state supreme court, the old Chief Justice who retired recently had had multiple DUI arrests while serving on the supreme court bench. No convictions.

I think most states have a "[Name] on Evidence" book. (Here, it's Whinery) Anything jurisdictionally broader is going to be of limited use to a practitioner.
