re: How often do you pull an all or mostly all nighter?

I’m 34 and usually wake up at 6:30am and am in bed for 8:15pm every day. With a four year old.

I need my beauty sleep. No way I could do now what I did in college.

Good lord man. I thought I was bad. I get up at 5am every morning for work. I try to make it a point to not go to bed before 900 but occasionally I am dozing off around 800 on the couch.

I do have to get to work around 2 or 3 some mornings and those days really kill my sleep schedule for a few days.

Why would anyone WANT to stay up for 24 hours?

I Have not pulled an all nighter since college

When I was younger and had the help of pharmaceuticals, it was a regular thing.

The last 15 years or so, I wouldn't dream of it. I'd call in sick if I didn't sleep a wink. I usually go to bed around 11 and sleep until about 7. I don't sleep well, but I sleep, I just wake up about 5 times during the night.

not sure what OP is babbling about but I regularly stay up all night for work, just have to find a way to adapt to it

I'm almost 40 and I pulled a 4oclocker with some barely 20-somethings from my wife's work a couple months ago in the warehouse District of Nola. First time in probably five years

Took me a full week to recover. And I'm no rookie. Deep in the Rave scene in the 90s and would double dose acid the next day but that night kicked my arse.

Getting old sucks.

Sleep is a big issue with me. Main job is fire/ems, we run ambulance service. Work on 24/48. If on the ambulance more than likely won’t get good sleep. And when you do sleep you constantly get woken up and have to be 0-90 just like that. I’m tired as frick when I get off work, then work my windshield jobs, then come home to 4 kids Saying that, I wouldn’t trade my life for anything. I drink lots of coffee in mornings. I also argue with college kids on TD. Fortunately I’m on the fire truck for next few months and I can overall get better sleep, or when we do run, get back to bed quicker since not having to go to the ER and do paperwork.

Eta: I guess you were talking about partying, so my bad. Yea frick all that, I’m damn near 40. Insert gif of coach yelling “I’m 40”

Short naps. Had to pull two spaced out over the course of the last week. Usually down time throughout so keep the computer email tone on loud and set 30 minute alarms when you can.

Then try to get about 3 hours when the dust settles in the early AM around 6/7 so you can be productive that day.

I have insomnia issues so a couple of times a month usually.
