On average per night, how many hours of sleep do you get?
This is after your video games, pr0n, late night tv, "late night activities", driving back home from the girlfriend's/boyfriend's...and so forth.

I feel that I get enough for me, probably way below the average. Curious what everyone else is like. Goes without saying I CANNOT start my day without a coffee (Timmies or bust).

If I don't have any reason to wake up, I aim for the magical 8 hours.. if I'm on a work or school schedule, I'd say around 6ish

I would say between 6 and 7 hours for me. It doesn't feel like enough but it will have to do.

I get 8 hours on average... but on days off.... 10ish ;) Gotta get sleep..... Sleep deprevation is cumulative and in my line of work.. it is a matter of saftey as well. Fatigue is something I avoid at all costs.....

Usually I get around 6 which is enough for me to go through the day without running out of gas. (Despite how boooooooooooooooring work is)
I don't have a need for a morning coffee or anything like that, if I do drink something like coffee it's for enjoyment rather than waker-upper. But I don't enjoy coffee either :chuckle

Congrats Skarbro... was it a little boy or a little girl?? I have to say my hours of sleep vary... depending on my shift at work.. on average I usually get about 6-7 hrs of sleep during the week... on my weekends off its usually about 10-11 hrs.... I have the same problem, I start to get tired around 10pm... drop off the gf around 12 - 12:30 and I'm back home by about 1ish... I go to bed.. but don't fall asleep till about 3ish... kind of a pain in the butt!! I think i like napping better then sleeping... nothing beats a really good power nap!!

I just have to get my 8 hours a night! I hate napping because I feel so disoriented when I wake up. Once I'm asleep I've got to sleep for 8 hours. One of my classmates (who is 31 yrs old) and I joke that when we pull an 'all-nighter', it means we stay up until 1 or 1:30 a.m. instead of going to bed by 11 p.m. :chuckle

I get up at 6:30 AM. I can NEVER fall asleep before 1:00 AM no matter how hard I try, unless I've done 3 hours or more of heavy cardio (running, biking).

dayshift - bed by 11:00 up by 6:00
afternoons - bed by 2 ish up by 10 ish
night shift - bed by 10 am up by 6 pm ish

I love sleep, i think if they made it an olyimpic sport i would win gold. I can sleep almost on demand, any time, any where, any place. :)

We had a little boy. And he has a very quick kick - perfect for dumping the clutch in a sharp corner. :chuckle

lets see, now that summer has started, i go to bed whenever i get tired... so 12-1 am... and wake up around 9 -10.....
but when school starts, im in bed around the same time, but getting up at 8am....

haha, my best record long sleep so far is 14 hours!
i fell asleep on the couch at 7pm, woke up at 11, went to bed at midnite, and awoke at 10 the next day.

I usually get around 5-6 hours. I am so tired and cranky and I come home and sleep for another 2 hours. I work from 7-3pm and it sucks. I want the 11-7 shift as I can sleep in everyday

Go to bed around 11:30pm and wake up at 6:50am. So around 7 hours average during weekdays.
On the weekends I just wake up automatically after 7~8 hours of sleep. I can't for more than 9 hours.
