That sucks. You have it worse than I do. Just found out this afternoon what good sleep is like. Slept for five hours in a row. Probably because I've been sick since Sunday. I keep thinking I'm over this cold the last two days so I have something with milk in it and then I feel awful for the rest of the day. I ate a lot of soup yesterday and except for that morning when I had yogurt, I felt good. So I tested myself this morning with cereal since I was still feeling fine and now my throat is sore again. On the plus side the medicine I'm taking is working fine. This is getting so old. I cannot tell you how tired I am of soup at this point and I normally love soup but that's when I don't have to eat it every fricking day. It's not that I'm allergic to milk since I've been drinking milk for years. Whenever I get sick the last couple years, I feel sicker every time I have milk or something with cheese in it. Except for soup almost all the tv dinners I own have cheese in them which really sucks right now. So I'm doomed to soup and the sloppy joes I've been buying from Oscar's. On the plus side it is great soup. I live near my mom and when I first started getting sick, she brought over some frozen soup which I've been eating the last couple days. She made it earlier this year. It's homemade. Okay sorry end of rant. If you want to skip most of this, I totally understand.

I haven't tried those since I consider myself a lost cause. When I first started having problems I took sleeping pills but it only worked once and that was with the highest dosage possible. It didn't work the second time. Also tried Melatonin and that also didn't work. The last ten years vitamin supplements like inositol usually helps me. Not during the winter though. Also Dr Whitaker's Restful Night Essentials are great. You might want to try those if sleeping pills don't work for you or if you want to cut back on sleeping pills. I usually sleep worse during the summer than I do during the winter but I have problems in the winter too. Mostly because the weather goes back and forth and drives me crazy. During the winter it will go from 10 F one day to 30 or 40F the next. This week it's going from high 70's and low 80's to around 57 F in a couple days. I'm looking forward to the 57 F when the weather is nice again.

I'm pretty good at memorizing dates or at least I used to be when I was younger so I'd probably like that game. I wouldn't be able to play it unless it went to Nintendo Online though. Too bad. Sounds like a fun game.

That sounds like Mario is Missing. I liked that game a lot on the SNES. It was the first Mario game I ever beat. It was one of the main games I played in middle and high school on my SNES besides Super Mario World, Super Mario Kart, and the Super Mario game that had the first three games plus the lost levels.

Seconded since I'm 41 and can relate to that so much.

I haven't heard of Mario's Time Machine. When did that game come out? I still doubt it's worse than Mario 64.

That is bad. I didn't start having problems with insomnia until I was in 12th grade. When I was a teenager in high school it used to take me a half hour until I could go to sleep, but I could sleep for 8 hours pretty easily back then. I wouldn't want to go to high school again but I wish I could sleep as easily now as I did then. Edit: I forgot to say I used to be a terrible morning person too but I'm not anymore. Mainly because normally I sleep from 11:30 PM until 3:30 AM so I'm more awake during the early morning than I am any other time of the day. Usually I try to take a nap in the early afternoon but I haven't been able to lately because of the road construction in my neighborhood. Normally I combine the two of them together so that's why I said I normally sleep for 4 to 6 hours a day. Hopefully one of us will find out what sleep is like eventually.

Thanks. I'm curious to know what it's like since I downplayed my bad sleeping schedule. I've had major problems sleeping since 1999. I'm at a point now where I can sleep between four and six hours and feel fine. Hence why I'm here so much. On the plus side that's more than my aunt who normally just sleeps two hours a night and has for decades. I'm just in the terrible phase during the last two weeks instead of just bad.

I just found out about that this morning. I'm hyped for October.

I can relate to that minus the nightmares for about two weeks now. Mostly due to a odd sleep schedule in general combined with road work in my neighborhood for the last two weeks. If you ever sleep well, let me know what it's like lol.

Only feel slightly old about the last two things since I was 21 when I first started getting into anime. I was in my 20's back in the 2000's. Never played the GameCube or XBox since I quit gaming in 1996 or whatever year the worst Mario game (Mario 64) came out and didn't get back into it until 2011 with the DS handhelds. I feel old about some of the 80's cartoons and movies back before you kiddos were born though. Mostly when the kiddos make memes out of them since they're bored I guess and also because of the stupid Disney live action remakes that don't exist. On the plus side they've used up most of the movies from my childhood and are starting to get into yours with Mulan and other upcoming terrible live action movies.
