Just wait until little Skoorbette gets here!

Right now, I am sleeping as much as possible to hurry and grow this baby so she will get out! PLUS, I know once she gets here, sleep will be a luxury I won't have!

Need: 8
Get: 5

What I do is, I get no sleep most of the week, but one night, invariably, I get home and collapse from exhaustion. Then I get LOTS of sleep. The next day is always my most productive of the week.

I work best with 6.5 hours of sleep. Anything more and I feel more tired.

It totally depends on the circumstances.

When I do the go to work, go to sleep, go to work, go to sleep... routine it doesn't matter how much sleep I get, I don't feel completely rested when I get up. I usually get 7-8 hours and wake up without the alarm at 8AM, but it doesn't matter.

When I go hiking, I sleep on the ground, usually get about 8 hours of restless sleep (read 3 hours of actual sleep), get up at 4:30-5:00AM and feel the best I ever feel in the morning. I'm pretty sure it has to do with actually doing something physical during my day.

It's weird.

six hours is enough for me. Anything more makes me feel sleepy all day

 

[Chronoshock]

I need 9+ (sometimes like 11 or 12 if I'm super tired)
I usually get <6

 

[TwiceOver]

5hrs 6 days a week, 7hrs 1 day a week. It works, but I am useless around 2 in the afternoon until my "second wind" kicks in.

when I am not training about 4-5

when I am about 6.

I used to sleep 11am to 2/3pm while in college...if I slept until 3pm or more I'd usually be fresh...1 or 2pm and I'd be a little wrecked sometimes until night time.
