48 Hours with no sleep...

My record is only missing one night. Probably like 36 hours or so. But several times I have wired myself to the point that I never fell asleep that night. Usually on coffee. I like my coffee... verrrry... strong. With a lot of sugar. And I drink it in big cups. Folgers tastes nasty when it is really strong, though.

yeah I think my best is 36 hours, but that was in 8th grade on the 19-hour train ride to DC for the class trip. I think the entire year (only 35 though..) stayed up, but then there was stuff planned for the following day, so we were forced to stay up.
And I like my coffee vanilla creamy or chocolatey. Can't drink it when it tastes like coffee.

I got to try this staying up for 2 days straight. I've only got about 23 hours, that was when I was 10. I got close to stayin up 2 straight days in July during the TNP thing but when 5 o'clock came and I heard Curtis and Cuby come on, on WABC radio I said hmm I'll get 3 hours and I'll be fine tomorrow, all in all I got like 2 hours sleep. On election night I almost did the same but damn school with their communist hours!

[BealtleManium]

I think schools are more facist than communist

[Keamian Territories]

I must agree

[TheSensitiveNewAge]

Yeah, horribly unorganized facshists.

[New Age Guilds]

hmm, by best is probeably 24, it was a school trip from london to barcelona on a bus. it was horrible.

[TheSensitiveNewAge]

Barcelona?! The best I got was a musem in Pittsburgh. Lucky....

[BealtleManium]

I've been to 26 states... canada... virgin Islands (USA)... Bahamas,... and ick, Puerto Rico

[TheSensitiveNewAge]

That's enough out of you!

[Keamian Territories]

I've been to 48 plus Canada and Mexico Along with Australia and New Zealand. I will be going to Europe in the summer.

I did 3 days (72 hours) a number of times in high school. Sugar makes it harder; so does caffeine except at the very end.

[Markanite]

the longest I did was 32 hours , after that I slept for 2 days, never again

[Echolilia]

Lots of accompaning friends helps.

aaaah see sleep hates me. i'll frequently miss a night of sleep and then only catch an hour or two the next night. in high school i went a week with no sleep at all. driving to school was a bear. thank god i had an annoying sister who refused to let me fall asleep!

[Echolilia]

I thought for a second you said "driving to school with a beer", which would be a really bad plan on no sleep.

[Annarasara]

lol as if the driving on no sleep wasn't bad enough. i can only imagine if beer had been involved! and while we're on that...ewww...beer. bring on the rum!!!!

[Shelter from the Storm]

I always thought beer smells a litle like cat pee.

I once stayed awake until ghosts visited me. Weird.

[Annarasara]

ok never.....go three days with no sleep....then drive a three am on a deserted road on friday 13th. some weird stuff goes on...and i'm not sure any of it actually happened.

[Shelter from the Storm]

I can see how that might have been disturbing.

[Annarasara]

oh very. lol i vowed to never drive that late again.

[Shelter from the Storm]

I remember clearly not being able to sleep all night on Christmas eve. I was quite young at the time.

[Annarasara]

everybody had that problem didn't they?

i was taken to the doctor at 2 because i had dark circles under my eyes from not sleeping. lol i am the queen of not sleeping!

[Shelter from the Storm]

I must confess that I love to sleep. I have long found that the best way to sleep is with a warm dog. Of course a toddler will do too, if they would actually sleep...

[Annarasara]

yea....never did that whole sleep with a toddler thing. scared to death i'm going to roll over on them. and don't have a dog. so i guess i'm sol.

[Shelter from the Storm]

I love the smell of babies. I love to feed them, play with them. I even enjoyed changing my kids' diapers. Weird, huh?

[Annarasara]

nah. i enjoy all that. well i'm still enjoying all that. lol kids are awesome....even when they're driving you crazy they're cute. never know wether to scream or hug um. i usually opt for the later

[Shelter from the Storm]

I am afraid I have no toddlers left. Mine are both at university now. So sad. Too old for more kids, way too young for grandchildren.

[Annarasara]

mine are still very young. love to have more. honestly love to cancel some testosterone and have a little girl. lol

[Shelter from the Storm]

Ihave two boys. I always wanted a daughter. I would have loved to buy little frilly dresses and Barbie dolls.

[Annarasara]

i have two boys as well. i'd love to do the same, but as my husband points out....currently i only have to worry about two....hmmmm maybe i shouldn't write that.
