Less Sleep, More H3

This Thursday, the Geezers are having some friendly games against Profanity. I always sign up for these things then drop out because the start time ends up being the oh-so-late hour of 9:30pm. I’m usually in bed before ten because I want to make sure I get plenty of sleep so I can be alert for work the next day. I was about to drop out of this one as well when suddenly I asked myself, “When did I become such a wuss?” For the life of me, I can’t pinpoint when getting a full nights sleep became such a high priority. What happened to the days of going out on a Thursday until 4am, sleeping two hours, and heading into work bleary eyed, “slightly hung-over”, and smelling faintly of beer and some skank’s cheap perfume?*

Every time I back out on a clan activity, the next day I read about all the fun I missed. And for what? Seven hours of sleep instead of five? I sit at a desk all day and do paperwork. I’m pretty sure I’ll be able to function without a full nights sleep every once in awhile. 

*Disclaimer:  I don’t really miss those days and prefer the stability I have now with my wife (love ya Rendara). Also, I’d like to apologize to any skanks I may have offended. I’m sure some of you have very nice perfume.
