I myself have realized the importance of sleep a mere two years ago. Combing all the knowledge concerning the circadian rhythm with proper exercise and diet has made a profound difference in how I feel. My mind and reflexes are sharper and quicker, not to mention my creative processes. I reckon I'm scratching at the surface of what normal should be.

Yep sleep in good and lack of such is a bit of a bother. I dimly remember putting in a 72 hour straight shift when I went back to work after the flood, followed by a week or so of 16 hour shifts and sleeping at the plant (OK, I admit I'm of an age where there's much I remember only dimly but that occurrence is a particularly dim memory.) .

Nowadays if I'm upright after ten I may tend to be a bit cross the next day.

Day before yesterday my computer lost it's voice, audio output dead, nonexistent. I was up until after midnight tracing wires and currents in the real world and one and knots (Misspelling intentional) on the computer in terminal mode finding that Intel's device7ad0 (revision 11) or perhaps HP's device 895c may be faulty. So far Intel can't tell me if a device7ad0 is the descriptive of an item in their system or if they have a replacement. I will allow that I shouted a few words harsher than OH POOP at the universe.

Yep sleep's important though sometime you have to, or at least think you have to muddle on. I admit the older I get the harder it s to keep on muddling.

I must also admit, even now, two days after burning and ounce or three of the midnight oil I'm still not at my best.
