Now if you could get paid to sleep - then you would have something.

I read that the director of "Once upon a time in Mexico" etc got the money for his first movie by getting paid to participate in a sleep study. Changed his life.

Anybody want to hire me? I've got 34 years of sleep experience.

Sleep rocks, btw . I love spending a lazy weekend morning in bed.

What do I hate doing that I have to do? Probably having to go to the bathroom... we'll never get rid of it, but it still an inconvenience.

I hate the fact that I need sleep to have the nice feeling I get when I sleep (called "not tired" ). I love sleeping, I just wish I didn't have to actually sleep to get the benefits of it.

Hmm...

I hate how people who get off the bus, while pushing everyone out of their way, appear to somehow get amnesia and forget what they were so hurried about as soon as they touch the ground.

I mean, when I'm riding the bus, more often than not, I'm pressed by time. Especially since the buses are 'so' exact. So I need to move quickly.

But then this person who shoved his way to the door and gets off first, as soon as he touches the ground he suddenly slows down and comes to a halt. He stands on the ground, looks around, shakes his head in a "huh? where am I? what am I doing here? what is my purpose in life?" kind of way.

And while all this is happenning, there are still 18 people cramped at the bus door, hoping to get out, all of them in a hurry to catch another bus that is about to leave or something. But they can't. Why?

Because that senile dope that has just shoved his way out, is suddenly trying to understand the meaning of life, right there where he landed when stepping out. And no one else can get out, because the stupid ***** is standing right at the door so no one can get around him, or even jump above him.


I mean, just so I won't ever be in that position, even if I will forget my name, address and purpose in life as soon as I touch the ground, I always leap from the bus, and then quickly run away 2 more meters.

So by the time my mind grasps I'm off the bus, and begins to wonder where I am now, making "duh" noises and drooling, I am long out of the way of other passangers.

It could be worse. You could be one of those folks who need more than 8 hours sleep to feel rested. I need 9 and 1/2 hours, and Bunnygrrl typically sleeps 12 hours a day. That's HALF her life.

Since I posted that last bit, the following happened.

Sophie was playing in this room while Daddy was typing on the computer. All of a sudden, she stopped moving and started grunting - Sophie was going to the bathroom.

"Did you have a diaper?"

"I don't know."

"Sophie, did you have a diaper?" (more serious tone)

"I don't know!"

"Sophie, I know you know - don't lie to me. Now, did you have a diaper?"

Nods.

"Well, lets go change it then."

No big deal - we do this every day, and while it is gross it isn't so onerous that it merits attention on this thread.

But this time was different...

Unbeknownst to me, Mom put Sophie in her training pants, not in a diaper. This matters because the method of removal differs between the two, including the best position of the child when you remove the things.

I grab Sophie, swing her onto the changing table with her on her back, and casually just remove her pants like usual.

With the training pants coming up with them. With the feces making it just halfway before falling back down again, all over Sophies stomach and nether regions.

Of course, she is totally fascinated by this turn of events, and while saying "ewwwww", decides to probe the mass with her fingers (I'm holding feet, pants, and training pants, trying to put them (the training pants) in the diaper pail.)

But I hold my cool - I bark "Sophie, NO!" and she doesn't do too much damage... but when I am able to get some wipes, her hands are the first thing I reach for. Then the mass.

Well, she got a bath. Messes like that you just don't leave unwashed.

And while I don't mind changing her diaper, I sure HATED it this time!

If there was some way to sleep in a way where you just go to sleep and instantaneously - but 7-8 hours later - just wake up, sign me up for that!

Che: Naw, it's no big deal. All you do is clean her up and give her a bath - don't worry, when it is your child it doesn't really matter. Anyway, what else was I going to do? Wait until her mother got home so she could change Sophie?

Plenty of things irritate me, but I don't do things I hate..why ruin my life that way?..if you hate your work, quit and find one you love, instead of having the quality of your life sucked away.

And why hate anything that irritates you? Just another way to screw with yourself..you decide what you hate, meaing you can at any point in your life decide you are sick of defining you life on what hurts, what is wrong, what it terrible, and what you suffer through, and that you will just STOP it.

Actually, it is a plainly obvious insight that people in general are too stupiud or stubborn to accept, otherwise people would stress themselves less, far far less.
