Saturday 9: Sleeping to Dream
30 September 2011
Linky-link here to play along with Crazy Sam today!
1. Do you ever go to sleep to simply dream?
Nah. I go to sleep to, uh, get some rest.
2. When you’re having trouble staying awake, what are some things you do to make sure you don’t drift off to sleep?
Overdose on the caffeine and listen to music. Loudly.
3. What’s most likely to cause you a prolonged period of not enough sleep?
Stress and the afore-mentioned caffeine.
4. When you’re going through a prolonged period of not enough sleep, what parts of your daily routine are likely to change, and how?
We homeschool, so when I *really* can't sleep and am exhausted, I give the kids a day off. They, um, really don't mind that so much. I'm glad for the flexibility.
5. In what ways does your personality change when you go through a prolonged period of not enough sleep?
Like anyone else, I imagine, I get stressed more easily (read: bitchy).
6. Who in your life seems regularly to have not enough sleep?
Me, and my daughter Sophia, age 6½. She has my sleeping personality.
7. When you're sleeping, do your closer friends tend to be male or female? Why do you think that is?
I fail to see the relevance of the two parts of that question. Huh? Used to be, all my friends were male, but I have a lot more female friends now.
8. If you could wake up tomorrow with a new talent, what would it be?
Oh, flying. I know I can fly. I just know it. I dream I can all the time...
9. In a dream, is your past something that you can go back to?
No, I tend to dream about the future, and I often dream mundane conversations and interactions that then come to pass. Maybe I'm psychic, but it happens a lot. Not lately, though.
Have a great weekend!
Fin.
P.S. If you would like to place a Jafra order or host a book party in the month of October, you get double hostess rewards and 10% donated to the Susan G. Komen breast cancer research foundation in your name. By the way, in a couple hours, I'll be placing another order, so holler if you want something! ;)
