Here’s a foto sans tits, inside a neighbor’s garage. Not seen: 1970(ish) bmw 2002 and beemer 650cc dual purpose, aka bi-bike.
It sucks being poor. |

The other night I got maybe 2 hours at home and another 1 on a train into the cube farm, put in 9 hours, didn’t sleep on the way home, maybe got four hours that nite, teleworked the next day (no commute). I try not to keep track or look at a clock. I know it ain’t enough, probably contributes to the already existing brain retardation. Whatcha gun do. I’am a high-functioning weirdo. |

1965 Porsche 356, last year made before the first 911. Basically a potentially $100k beetle. He downplays its significance but he know what he got.
Pristine examples of $100+k specimens, diff cars, diff states (years unk), foto credit me: |

Women? The grass is always greener…careful what you wish for. If you’re gonna do drugs, do something that does something for your head. Sleep? How much did Edison get? You’re in rare company. Embrace it. Live. |

I typically sleep 4hrs per night, 5 if I'm lucky.
I have sleeping pills prescribed to me but I rarely ever take them. 30 days prescription usually lasts me ~13mos. |

As someone that worked for Porsche, you're looking at the most overrated over priced sports car out there. A VW with a different shell. |

I get frustrated because I know I have to function the next day. When I retire my concerns will be improving my awful guitar playing, throwing what little money I have into a lowly c4, building cheap plastic model kits, playing with little ones, and surveying my vast empire. It’s gonna be great!
I’ll take a nap around 10 am and wake up around 1. Get morning and afternoon naps done in one and crash for the evening whenever I want. Nobody will care when I wake up or anything else about me. This is what “me time” means. Pictures at 11. Repeat |

If I can't get to sleep (mind racing) I have a 'script for Xanax to take with Ambien for that purpose, and it works well, although in recent months that hasn't been a problem; staying asleep long enough is now the problem and Xanax won't help with that. I also have OTC diphenhydramine and doxylamine (antihistamines) that will knock you out, well into the next day if you're not used to them. But if you take them too often they don't work so well. If I get 2-3 nights with only 3-4 hours sleep each night I take them the next night (along with Ambien and melatonin of course) and I can usually get around 7 hours of sleep. Although they're not working so good lately cuz I've been taking them too much. I've tried all the herbs, they're no help. So it's all just a lot of fun. I doze off in my recliner a lot in the morning and evenings, and that's a tell-tale sign that one is not getting enough sleep. Aside from that, my biggest problem is finding enough things to spend money on. |

WAKE UP!!!
All this sleep talk is making me tired. I sleep 6-7 hours every night no matter where in the world I am or what time zone I’m in. It’s wonderful. |
