Title: Is there something wrong with me?
Post by: Electric Mango on September 01, 2011, 11:25:51 pm
Why is it that when I should go to bed that it's so hard to fall asleep but when it's time to wake up I feel like I could sleep for several more hours. Why can't those be switched around?  The sad thing is this happens nightly.

Are you sure you're sleeping enough? Are you physically tired or mentally tired? What do you do before you go to bed? If your mind is mentally occupied, tried to watch TV or read a book, something that will distract you before you go to bed. If you're not exercising enough, clear answer there. Do something to exhaust yourself each day. It might be you're behind on your sleep or you're sleeping too much.

Stay away from anything with a backlit screen(Yes computers too) at least an hour before bed. Same with any sugars or caffeine. Just relax and get things off your mind for a bit before bed.

Fap. It'll help you fall asleep.


For the waking up part, maybe morning sex can help? I'm not really sure about that, though. It's just a theory which I haven't had a chance to test out yet.

See the part on sleeping.  It's past  pooping, Bathing, and breathing.  Had some surprisingly good info.

No, morning sex makes you more tired. All you want to do is go back to sleep afterwards.

What if you don't finish? Blueball yourself awake.

That article was interesting, especially the pooping part.

I think my problem is multimedia, especially the interwebz. At night is when I start trolling the web and I can't put it down. I'm sorry to say but I think the RIA is bad for my health but I can't quit you. Cacti is worse than a heroin addiction.

Yes, I am aware of this problem as well.  I found that the best solution is to set an alarm at what time your HAVE to stop.  Then, I go lay down and throw in an old episode of stargate.

If that doesn't work, theres always an Amaretto Stone Sour, that usually works.

Not finish? What is this concept you speak of? I don't understand. What is the point of it all?

Or you could just have a messed up sleep schedule like me. Whatever works for people. :P

I figure that the pain will force you to wake up. Once again, though, it's only a concept and I have never tested the theory out.

I don't think haunt is the word you're looking for.

Except I need to sleep with a morning person, Mia. Mango is most definitely not a morning person.

I am sure you could put your skills to use and  make him a morning person.

However, neither of us are morning people. You are our only hope, Mia.

Hell no. I'd rather die than wake up to the nightmare of you two.

A girl who picks a Doctor besides David Tennant to obsess over? This is new to me.

That's what I asked. Who?

I don't like David Tennant, Matt Smith is more awesome.  I don't love him but I think he is more quirky.. more Doctor Who than  David Tennant to me.  Glee and Doctor Who are my shallow shows that I watch lately.

NFL football is my television indulgence and oh how sweet it is. 7 more days until game 1 of the opening season. I'm stoked.

Oh sort, didn't want to derail this thread from it's intended course, that being Leo and Mia flirting with each other....again. :)

Glee doesn't open until Sept 20th. :( Reruns until then! But I have my Saturday Doctor Who, plus I haven't seen most of the old Doctor Who. Need a break from my university courseload.
Title: Re: Is there something wrong with me?

Saturday and Sundays, football football football. There are many reasons why I love my university. Football is several of those reasons.

I don't like David Tennant, Matt Smith is more awesome.  I don't love him but I think he is more quirky.. more Doctor Who than  David Tennant to me.  Glee and Doctor Who are my shallow shows that I watch lately.

David Tennant was a much better doctor than Matt Smith.  Smith just seems to be "forcing" the tennant part of the personality, though I do like Amy Pond and her boyfriend/husband killjoy traveling with him.  It pulls the doctor away from having to fall in love with another companion.  I've only seen up to "the big bang" as I don't have TV and watch netflix, but if he turns it around from trying to be tennant, I think he might do a good job. 

But, he will never beat tennant.  I mean, David Tennant was voted the best doctor who of all time, beating Tom Baker (who is a pretty awesome doctor by himself).  Eccelson was good, but I really liked the "randomness" of Tennants doctor, especially with the dark streak he had.  Like in the waters of mars when he basically said "Fuck the rules, I've got a tardis" and screwed everything up.  I just wish he hadn't decided to go off and do whatever it is he's doing now that isn't as good as doctor who.

I only started watching the season when Matt Smith was playing Doctor Who then saw older episodes. Quite frankly, I still believe Matt Smith is the better actor. :P

I don't see where this thread lost it, but the answer is clearly to fuck before bed.  If my wife is not around, a well shaped sofa does the trick.

Thats probably why.  If you had seen Tennant as Who first, you'd see that Smith is sort of just "playing off" of his character and quirks.  At least, upto where I have seen he was.  Smith just seems to... "Immature" to be a proper doctor.  Also, it looks like they are aiming it towards younger audiences, Kinda like Sarah Jane Smith Adventures did.  Also, since they killed off tennant, we've probably seen the last from Captain Jack on Who, so hopefully torchwood will become a series again.

I still like Smith better. =P I just think Smith looks more.. quirky than Tennant. Tennant almost looks too normal.
Title: Re: Is there something wrong with me?
Post by: Buck Turgidson on September 06, 2011, 04:33:11 am
You are both rediculous.  Tennant and Smith can't hold a candle to the first Doctor 2005, and he can stand up to the original 4th Doctor.
Title: Re: Is there something wrong with me?
Post by: Mia on September 06, 2011, 07:11:22 am
I've seen the 2005 Doctor and not impressed.
Title: Re: Is there something wrong with me?
Post by: Buck Turgidson on September 06, 2011, 07:45:05 am
He had the difficult task of re-establishing the series.  The original 4th is still the best, though the special effects suck.  Matt Smith looks like a computer generated 'after' plastic sugery outpatient simulation.  Makes a good face for the video game...

I like Smith's face, I think it suits Doctor Who's quirks.

Actually, christopher Eccelson (the 2005 doctor) holds the positon of, 3rd best doctor of all time.  Behind the beatnik, behind tennant.

Anyway, I really liked Eccelson and the way he used to say "fantastic".  Plus, he was pretty chaotic.  I think if he hadn't demanded a pile of money to resign, they probably wouldn't have killed him.

Tennant seemed to have a "love-hate" relationship with humans.   He'd jump between talking about how bad humans were to pretty much jacking off to how awesome he thought we were.

Hell, sometimes in the same episode.

anyway, were stuck with smith, so he better end up doing an epic job, cause once he's gone, it's the end.  The Doctor can only regenerate 12 times, and he half-regenerated that one time, using one of them up.  Once smith is done, it's over.

hmm weird though, lots of smiths in the Tardis...
Title: Re: Is there something wrong with me?
Post by: Buck Turgidson on September 07, 2011, 04:24:11 am
WHOA!  What do you mean only 12 times?  You mean Matt Smith is the last Doctor?  Bullshit - what if he had a car accident?  I guess they could get all Star Trek 11 on our ass...

yes, there is something wrong with you. It doesn't just apply to your sleep problem either.  :facepalm:
