I'm currently taking bets from IRL friends on how long I can go without sleep. I am currently at approx 43 hours without sleep. I'm not sure if I should have posted this here or in Gravin Threndor, or what-not, but if anyone wants to get in on the pool, all spots are currently open save the following:
48 hours -- Passed
53 hours -- Passed
66 hours and 36 minutes
73.4958743 -- Holsety
88 hours -- HLT
123 hours
127 hours (my previous record.)
The closest without going over gets a prize.

why are we keeping track of EL's sleeping habits?

have you ever tried explaining yourself

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

The longest I've ever gone without sleep, about 5 and a third days, was done after I learned one of my Grandfather's had to do a full week during his nearly decade long stint in the Army to see what he would, say, divulge sensitive information. I wanted to see if I could a) go a week and b) what I would do while so heavily sleep deprived.
I stopped during day 5 because I lost my colour vision, and was talked into quitting.
For the past several weeks I've been monitoring my blood pressure and pulse rates, and I'm in part doing this to see what affect sleep deprivation has upon those. I'm mainly doing it to see how long I can go, as the older I get (though I'm not that old,) the harder and harder it gets to go long periods without sleep.

I'll guess 96 hours.
Sleep is a wonderful thing. According to my wife, I apparently have the gift to be asleep within a few minutes of laying down, where she fidgets and struggles for hours to get to sleep. I don't know this for certain, since I'm always asleep when it happens.

Monday will be the earliest we can get a route truck to you. I will work on getting you a
replacement container. Do you happen to recall who you spoke with or the number
the call would have come from? I am not finding any records of the call and would like
to pinpoint it so I can have a discussion with our staff.
