Sleeping = Overrated!??!

[ziycon]

I find it very hard to go to bed before 3 o'clock every night, this has been going on for the past 3-4 years, anyone else not able to sleep???

I'm more of a night time person myself.

 

[davidbehan]

I beat the 2 of ye... 5am and still working!

Always been like this for me. Work better at night time!

 

[Gavin]

I think its the industry.

I find that I get into a groove, I can work for 48 hours no problem. I find that at night, there are absolutely NO distractions and I get so much more work done.

When I'm doing some PPC testing with large budgets, I am tweaking every few mins (Not crack or meth tweaking).

My girlfriend goes mental though.

Same here but loosing it is probably the most frustrating thing ever!

Careful with the girlfriend. I was dumped for spending too much time on my sites. She claimed I loved my laptop more.....she got that right!!

What's sleep?

Hahaha, I don't think so. She knows where her bread is buttered. She also works for me

Besides, we are together almost 7 years. I stole her heart while I was still good looking

So true but it was starting to become practically unhealthy for me cos I work a nine to five developing for a communications company and because of similar girlfriend issues I have to nearlty wait till she goes to bed to get any of my own work done. Tis better these days though I've introduced her to blogging

That sounds strangely familiar

yes very alla Granddad/Richardo/Headrambles, I reckon it's becoming a trend. Although I had her doing it first I swear http://www.irishwebmasterforum.com/../members/richardo.html

 

[davidbehan]

This all sounds way too familiar to me too. Work, girlfriend, hobbies, sleep balance is a bit messed up for us guys/gals in this industry me thinks.

I find that when I'm busy with a number of projects at once (especially when there are a few going live around the same time) I average around 4 hours sleep a night for a few nights running. I do 9am-5pm(ish) where I'm doing some productive work but more client meetings, phone calls, project management, etc. and a second stint from 10pm-5am, which is usually pure design/development and the odd visit to a forum/blog to read and post my views when my eyes start to hurt. It would take me 3 days working 9am-5pm to get the same amount done in one night from 10pm-5am.

It's amazing what you can get done when the phone isn't ringing or you don't have to go to meetings, etc.

Throwing a girlfriend into this mix can really mess up a perfectly good routine!

That's my excuse for being single

Who the hell would want me?
