How would your life be different if you didn’t need to sleep?

I’d be bored even more often.

I'm Necko.  I'm like Ringo except I wear necklaces.

I'm also ewe2 on weekends.

Most likely to post things that make you go hmm... 2015, 2016, 2017.

“Too much to do, too little time” would no longer be an issue.

Or maybe “more things to do” would just grow in number.

I could get more work done. Sometimes I think a day is too short. But then again, at other times I don’t have much to do, and then I always like it to be tomorrow already. I don’t get bored easily, but I think that if a day would really be 24 hours long, that I could get bored more often.

I’d have so much more time to do all the things I want/need to, but I’d also miss both dreaming and “that nice little state halfway between dreaming and awake”. So I wouldn’t get private concerts from Paul and/or hugs from George! (Well, haven’t got the latter yet, but I’m working on it).

I have purposely cultivated so many interests through my life that getting bored hasn’t been an issue for the last 30+ years; quite the opposite. The idea of an extra 8 hours or so free time every day appeals a lot; though I can think of a few good reasons to lounge around in bed anyway 🙂

You would remember that. a-hard-days-night-paul-3 

Everyone is bored sometimes, even me– it doesn’t have anything to do with whether or not you have something to do; it’s a state of mind. Sort of like depression is a state of mind, only much milder, obviously.

Alas, you touch a sensitive spot there! If I’m in a good place I can draw and write and compose for hours and never sleep, but when I’m not… For instance, many times I can’t sleep, but I feel that I need to “unplug myself” from daily life. Besides, our brain keeps working on our emotional issues when we sleep; I see it in my dreams. Nowadays I’m so broke that I need to sleep long hours to forget my financial problems.

What do you do when you’re online and the forum falls asleep? (Besides leave) 

I go wandering through the dank back alleyways of Forumpool and find dusty old threads that no one has heard from since Nineteen Hundred And Eighty-Five and wake them up.
