Lets talk about sleep

I get the sentiment, but I've never understood that saying. I don't know about you, but the babies I've been around in my life only had phases where they were good sleepers. More often, it was fitful and interrupted. That's why I said in my post way above that on that one occasion, I had "slept like a teenager." Guess I could also have said "slept like a college student".

I picked up on that and I thought you nailed it. The sleep I experienced as a teenager was what sleep is all about.

Also, I remember Hurricane Fran when it came through Raleigh, and trees were coming down all around my house. A huge pine had come down and basically cleaved my neighbor's house in two. There were several more really big ones that I was concerned about. My teenage boy was asleep upstairs and I made him come down and sleep on the sofa. That lasted about 15 minutes and he said F this and went back to his own bed with no mind whatsoever to the howling wind and falling trees and my pleas for his safety. He slept like a bab...teenager and the next day he was basically like 'what storm?'..

Did you know the gauge to measure track width was the same they used for wagon wheels which was brought over from England for their carriages which is based on the ruts left from Roman chariots? WAKE UP WAKE UP THIS IS THE BEST PART
Furthermore, since it was going to be transported by train the shuttle boosters had to fit through train tunnels so the space shuttle design was partly based on Roman chariot ruts.

I love this stuff. Thank you. And I was awake for the whole thing, no naps or dozes or anything.
