Friday Five of Sleep

Posted on Jul 10th, 2009 by Jessica : The Evolutionary Connector - Gaia Jessica
From our Team Blogomatic.


1) How many hours of sleep do you usually get each night?
Lately, very few. I've been up late working and up early too! I like a good eight hours, but that hasn't been in the cards.

2) Are you a morning or night person?
A night person, definitely, since I was a kid. I have tried to be a morning person and force myself, but left to my own natural devices I stay up past 12 or 1am.

3) Do you remember your dreams? Are they vivid or fuzzy?
I have a lot of dreams and usually remember bits and fuzzy pieces.

4) When is the last time you stayed up all night?
This week, last night in fact.

5) Can you sleep anywhere, or do you need to be all cozied-up just right in your own bed?
I love a cozy bed, but a comfy couch will do. I love my blankets! I don't like the floor or outdoor sleeping unless it's on a sunny warm day with a picnic blanket and a cat-nap.

And what about you?
