There was a thread just like this a few days ago. I find that ever since I cut back on smoking, and started eating a little better/taking vitamins, I've been able to sleep a lot better. I've also been able to function off 5 or 6 hours sleep, where I couldn't before.

Hmmmm, which airport do you work for? I think I want to avoid it.


Just kidding! ;)

I sleep about 3-6 (per night) hours on weekdays, then catch up on the weekends.

Depends on how much stuff I have to do and if I want to go to sleep- but as a general rule, no, at least not enough for me. It might be more than enough for some people here. I generally get about 6-7.5 (7.5 is rare) on weekdays and a lot more on weekends.

Slept for 13 hours at once this weekend. :D From 2 AM Sunday morning 'til 3 in the afternoon. I had the most jacked up dreams, too. If I didn't know better I'd swear I was on drugs.

My body likes to get a good 10 hours or it's not very happy. Eight is sufficient, however.
