I just slept for 20 hours
And I am really annoyed about it.
I went to sleep at 11PM, I woke up at 7PM.
Personally I thought it was 7AM when I woke up, and only just found out this was not the case a minute ago.
My sleep schedule is now completely ruined. Hopefully I'll be up in time to go to school tomorrow.Avatar by Abardam.

Shout at whoever didn't wake you up. It always helps me.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
The only time I slept that long (I think it ended up being 27 hours total) was after local anesthesia for a surgery. Came back home, the drugs wore off, I lied down for a moment, next thing I know it's tommorow.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
Man, I hate that. Back in college for a half of a semester or so I would accidentally take a nap in the afternoons after classes were over (at about 4pm or so, having been in class since 9am), and then I'd wake up about an hour or two later and think it was the next morning.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
Wow. First we have a Playgrounder who stayed/(is staying?) up for like 2 days straight, and now a Playgrounder who slept for a full day. It's like, screwed-up-sleep-patterns in the Playground. I actually half-thought that these'd be from the same person...

Give a player a fish, and he’ll probably try to sell it to an NPC fisherman.
Teach a player to fish, and next week he’ll show up with the book, “The Complete Adventuring Fisherman”. He’ll start hunting for some monstrous leviathan to catch and enslave, and he’ll be dual-wielding two fishing poles.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
Oddly enough I'm not sick.
I think. I don't FEEL sick anyways. And I didn't feel sick before I went to sleep either.Avatar by Abardam.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
Wow 18 is my record, and that was after getting about 7 hours of sleep over the last four days. Although I have a really wierd sleep schedule, I sleep naturally for about 6 and a half hours, then occasionally crash for a good four or five extra on some days.
I would really like to see a game made by Obryn, Kurald Galain, and Knaight from these forums.
I'm not joking one bit. I would buy the hell out of that. -- ChubbyRain

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
The only time I slept for more than 18 hours straight was after a LONG plane ride. Ahhh... the wonders of jet lag.

Can't say I've ever slept longer than 12-14 hours. I'm starting to feel uncool in the sleeping club
Crashing sucks. So do minivans and F-150s.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
I've slept for 21ish hours once. My eyes had dried out, causing HORRENDOUS PAIN! I managed to take two aspirin and pass out.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
Here, send me 8 hours of that. You'll be able to go to sleep on time, and my body will hate me for abusing it so badly a little less.
The above post made a lot more sense in my head.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
I envy you. I haven't been able to sleep over ten hours in years and lately I'm glad for anything more then six hours. Of course, lately, that has been my conscious choice, but even when I have time I have hard time sleeping over eight hours, unless I'm really exhausted. And I haven't been that exhausted in a long time.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
One time my parents (waaay before I was born) went to Munich, Germany for... I think a business trip, and they had a really long travel day and when they got to the hotel they took a nap... which lasted something like 23 hours. The hotel staff decided to check up on them to make sure they didn't die or something.
My record is probably around the 11-12 mark... I feel lame.Last edited by The Orange Zergling; 2008-10-08 at 11:26 PM.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
Just yesterday I slept for 15 and a half hours. Though I just can't sleep for a long time anymore, but thats cause my girlfriend has this strange liking of talking to me when I just wake up, and phones me at absurd times like 3am.
I take advantage of that on school days though and talked her into waking me up at 6am every day. ^_^

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
Personal record: 49 hours. Why? I honestly don't know. What I DO know is that I no longer lock my room when I sleep (I used to be silly about that, but no longer!), and I take damn good care to get a *more* balanced sleep schedule.
Normally, I sleep around 10-14 hours a night. I find that staying up for 18-20 and sleeping 10-12 works great for me. I'm always decently rested, and I have the schedule to accommodate my strange sleeping patterns.
To everyone out there, don't sleep more than 36 hours at a time. Not only does it mess you up mentally and physically, but when you miss two days of life with no one seeing you, stuff gets crazy.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
My personal record is 24 hours on the dot. Arguably not as impressive as ^ who topped over two days.

Re: I just slept for 20 hours
So it hasn't even come up in this much thread: what did you do to result in 20 hours of sleep? Stay up a while, do something really tiring...?
