Sleep

Sleep is the most essential function we as Human's have ( excluding socializatio and water consumption ) in context to our health and mental aptitude. We have all sorts of disorders associated with sleep like sleep apnea, sleep anxiety disorder, narcolyspsy, hypersomnia, and chronic fatigue syndrome which if we are being technical does not always have to do with sleep because no matter if we get 4 or 10 hours you would still be tired but I am going to throw it in there anyways.

With that...

I have found that certain reqriums need to be met ( wait isn't reqrium a catholic mass for a deceased person? Well yes it is, so I apologize for that mis-vocabularity there, but admit it you would not have known that if I had not put this little part in here ) for me to be able to sleep well.

For instance... temperature, I cannot sleep if I am too hot, like all this winter my stupid heater in my loft runs too hot and i wake up in the middle of the night sweating and then cannot get back to sleep. Now this distillation of temperature is all to deisolationed for my deprivation of dormancy and lethargy, and i can't sleep so I have taken to dropping the temperature so that it is cold when I go to sleep and I have found that I sleep very well when it is cold in the room but I am warm under my blanket. Now my torpidity ( sleep for all you non-homeschoolers or while not defined as sleep but uncounsiousness it is a synonym for sleep) it quite important to my functioning and for me to be non-imparied in judgement or my acumen state of acute and apprehensively astue state of mind that we like to describe as counciousness.

Next... Music helps me to sleep and I could almost say that I have become dependent on music for sleep, I always put some music on before I go to bed, usually at a very blantantly blustered cacophonously emphatic fulminating obstreperous raucous resonant resounding sonorously stentorianed tumultously vehement and vociferous level, as such that one time my mom called my apartment and told me to turn down my music at about 2 in the morning, but I missed the call because of the deafening nature of my music. But as I said I like music and I like it loud or very loud at night to get to sleep, and I almost always wake up in the middle of the night to turn the music off without fail. I have had about 6 times this year so far where i woke up and my music was still on which meant that I slept through the night, which is a rare occasion for me. The nature or genre of the music does not seem to have an effect on my sleep but can have an affect on my mood in the morning, I have found that heavy metal or angst music blarred throughout the night produces a worse mood in the morning than say some jazz, or Leo Kotkee 6 and 12 string steel guitar or some Guster or the Spider Man Two Soundtrack or some Rocking Jason Gray, but still I like rock music sometimes and a chourus of smashing pumpkins through the nigth seems to produce a good sleep for me.

Next, not knowing what time it is helps me to sleep, if I look at the clock and realize that i only have a few hours left I almost seem depressed and have a hard time falling back to sleep or in some cases just get to sleep as I stay up very late at least a couple of nights a week. You might say that my sense of self - efficacy is shot after I realize that I have no control over time, so I try to not look at the clock and in this case ignorance is sleep as the old expression goes.

Well that is what I have for now and if you don't understand it ( do you see what is coming? I know I could) then sleep on it.
