This may seem completely ridiculous. These were reccomended for people who are bipolar that sit in front of computer screens at night.

Or anyone for that matter.
Blue light from your computer tells you "it's time to wake up!" Hence I end up staying up till abour 3 or 4 and getting 4 hours of sleep every night. I bring you: Orange Glasses! No really, I'm being serious. These really do help. The only problem is that i cant see the blue buttons on my maschine at all. and they make cigarettes look the same at both ends.

You guys may think I'm crazy, that's because I am.

I have about 800 episodes of Hearts Of Space I play on random for sleeping. That and a tempur-pedic. Sleepalicious.

True that. I wish I never had to sleep, that's the other part of my problem. Imagine how much shit you could get done if you never had to sleep.

Haha, I've been using Flux for maybe a year and my sleeping is still pretty erratic.
I guess sleeping at a reasonable hour just isn't for me!

A quick snack, wank, and shower usually gets me to sleep. And it's not always necessarily in that order

Any tips for waking up at 5am without hitting snooze for an hour and being late for work?
