I've had sleep problems for years, due to working choppy shifts, and very long shifts. The over-night "graveyard" shifts were by far the very worst, so I am very, very familiar with this. Good luck

RE: Definition of Woman

I am Woman, hear me roar, in numbers too big to ignore,
And I know too much to go back and pretend
'Cause I've heard it all before,
And I've been down there on the floor--
No one is ever going to keep me there again..

Oh yes, I am wise, but it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price, but look how much I've gained
If I have to, I can do anything--
I am strong
I am invincible
I am Woman

You can bend but never break me,
'Cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'Cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul



I am Woman, watch me grow,
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my loving arms across the land..

RE: insomnia and hypersomnia

Well, I wasn't very nice to you the other day because I mistook your humor---so, it happens to the best of us. Communication is a fragile art, at best--here in The U.S. people earn Masters and PH.D's in "Communication". It's a wild animal, to say it succinctly. I just try to do and be the best I can, and if I fail or am mistaken, hey, I'm only a guy, not an angel. Right?

RE: insomnia and hypersomnia

I can relate--I believe once we do or say something, often it can't be "fixed". Been there...guess just a good idea to take care with what we say, write, demonstrate, etc...kind of takes the wind out of the sails for us creative, spontaneous types, but the world is large.....on the other hand, and take this as learned experience--if and when things are just not gel'n, as the saying goes,,,,,I split. No use fizzling about when it's just not working......handshake

RE: Emotionally Broken Men

Every single solitary person on God's green earth is emotionally broken in one way or another----it's called the human condition...

Of course many people manage it better, and it is much less, or non-apparent.

Mega-blessings, lovie--know what? My mom is going to be 88 on her next birthday, and get this--she is STILL working (for pay) 32 hours a week {almost full-time} and it's highly technical/professional, finance, accounting.....wow!!angel

RE: Why do people wear torn clothes?

Remember, Cher really rocked with way-torn jeans and clothes.....other celebs did likewise.

RE: Always have a good breakfast

OK, OK, OK.....it sounded cranky toward Americans, and we're not all bad....but, my apology for being un-humorous. Sorry.....handshake

RE: Which celebrities do you find most attractive?

Hugh Jackman, Linus Roach, Christopher Meloni are a few of my faves....

RE: Always have a good breakfast

I really like beans--just a thought: Some older cookbooks recommend soaking dry beans in soda-water (use two tablespoons baking soda per quart of water). Ready-to-heat beans--cook just a little longer, when they "split" it releases some of the explosives.....conversing

RE: Lets compare real prices by you.

* The Progressos were on sale at Krogers--they're usually about 3 or 4 bucks per can. Celery a little higher than usual, tomatoes were priced fair. Frozen juices are way too high, jmo, but everything is going up!

RE: Always have a good breakfast

Prunes are actually very good for you, and not necessarily problematic if you don't over-do it. Here's a dinner recipe, btw:

6 to 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
8 to 10 prunes, split and pitted
2 teaspoons sugar
sliced carrots, onions and a small box of frozen peas

brown the thighs quickly in hot oil (this seals in flavor and makes them very tender)
line a glass baking dish, generously buttered, with the thighs. Place prune halves over them, dust the sugar, evenly spread the vegetables over the top. Bake 325 for about 40 minutes. Take out, sprinkle a sweet cheese - grated, over top, you can use Muenster or Brie, etc....cover with foil for 10 or so minutes. This "rests" the dish, and the flavor is over-the-top. The prunes add a unique, old world flavor to the dish.

RE: Always have a good breakfast

I had corned beef hash with poached eggs, a little cheddar melted over. It was great. Orange juice, too.....

RE: Lets compare real prices by you.

So, I just grocery shopped. Celery 2.29, avacados, 1.00 each, on-the-vine tomatoes, 2.00/lb, Progresso soups, varieties chicken, chowder, tomatoe-basil, 1.29 each, dry onion soup mix, 1.00 each, frozen orange juice, 2.80 each, frozen grape juice, 3.15 each, half n half milk, 4.00 quart, strawberries, 3.00/lb, cat food, .90 a can and 24.00 for 15 lbs.

RE: What should be free but isn't.?

You might have noticed, Stan and I don't live very far away from each other.....kinda cool, huh?

RE: What should be free but isn't.?

Although I don't get out in evenings much, the bands here in Coos Bay are better than one might expect. ("Aurora", "Timberwolf"). I guess if you pay and hear a not so good band, tell the venue owner, or just watch the kiosks and don't go when they're playing... I hear what you're saying, btw....handshake

RE: What should be free but isn't.?

This is true...I'm probably the worlds best opportunist--I find great deals. My co-op is only at 2/3 the going rate.....and it's a nice duplex. Yes, I'm a very fortunate guy...good to see you, btw....you handsome old booger..wink

RE: What should be free but isn't.?

footnote: In the small apartment and duplex buildings, here, the machines still take quarters, and the washer is generally $1.50-$2.00, and dryer $.50 to $.75.
