*yawn* Hey, I just got up at 3:15pm - for me it ain't a lie that I am pretty busy... fortunately busy not only with the job (during the week), but also with friends and having fun out on the streets and so on (weekends and evenings). :)
But still I keep coming back. I could get my ass up and give a lengthy update on what's up with me personally... hm... sometime else maybe. ;)

*Yawns bigger than Odin* ;)
I got up about 45 minutes ago. But I do check the boards every day!

Hey, mind the time difference - it's not that late at your's now, is it? :)

Been a little busy here this semester, though I have been trying to peek in more often, Got up early, even though we saw Devildriver, Trivium, and In Flames last night about 1:15 hours away! Great show though well worth the tripback!

It wasn't long after noon that I got up today. ;) Usually I wake up sooner.

@Metal RN: How are the studies proceeding? And how's your lovely wife doing?
@Angel: What are you doing these days besides sleeping anyway? ;)
-
Absolutely nothing, to be honest. *sigh* I'm kind of in limbo until I go down to Southern IL for graduate school.
-
lol well you all know I've been busy. :!:
I got back two hours ago from a weekend get-a-way to Boston, Mass & New Hampshire with Dave. Incredible weekend. In another hour or so I will be back off to NJ!
-
I've been busy too. Thanks to a work holiday here, for me anyway, I've had time to check in. I keep hoping work will slow down but so far it hasn't. I miss everybody.

*ENVY* :)

Get well soon Virvatuli!

Yeah. If there is a God, he has a really weird sense of humor :roll:

The reason people get sick when they have time off (You'll notice this most in students) is because they can actually relax and have the time to get sick. Until then, your body is running on stress and adrenaline, which is weakening your immune system, but keeping you going. During this time you're exposed to all kinds of airborne crap (especially if you're a student!) and it just waits until your body relaxes. Then you get sick.
If you notice, ALOT of students tend to get sick right after finals or other huge, important exams. A few unfortunate individuals get sick right before, or during, but the bulk get sick almost immediately after.

Yeah, makes sense in deed.. still, it sucks a big time ;)
-
Yes. Yes it does. I remember I got sick last fall right before Fall Break. My ears, nose and throat were all clogged. I couldn't talk, hear, or breathe. I had some weird infection that initially masqueraded as a cold. My parents had to come get me at school and drive me home, I was so bad off!

Uhh, sounds really bad :( Did you at least get some nice hallucinations? :) I'm happy I'm not that sick this time, but still not able to do anything.. :(
-
Nope, no hallucinations for me. I only hallucinated once, and that was from sleep-deprivation. And the hallucinations were just really WEIRD.
-
Yep, I really expected to become sick after my thesis last year. But it didn't happen. Only after I made a short trip to Portugal a few days later - then I got struck down by a internal infection making me loose 2-3kg in 2 days... :evil:
This also applies for working people, I think. If you are loaded and busy, there's no time to become ill, but as soon as you have some free time (vacation...) it might break out. A good reason to use the weekends and other non-working time to really relax (so you don't have to waste your vacation ;) ).
-

The weird ones are the best ;)

There is a hormone on the body called cortisol that is released during stressful situations, hence the name the stress hormone. It helps your body prepare for the "fight or flight" response. When your body perceives danger, in caveman times it would be to run away or fight a threat/wildbeast/dinosaur :wink: . In modern times it sharoens your senses for more benign threats, an exam/important job/etc. A side effect is that it weakens you immune sysytem, rather retards it, as stated by our angel. It is also raised in individuals that have depression. Oddly enough you can help your body correct its levels and consequently treat depression with sleep deprivation.
Just some nuggets of knowledge from you friendly neighborhood RN!

Very interesting, Christopher! Thanks for the nuggets.

O_o Oh man, one thing that would be soooo unethical to do to my future clients. But that won't stop me from trying it on myself if I ever develop depression. Though that's probably not a GOOD thing to do...But then, depressed people will often sleep ALOT more than the average...hrm...

Unless they are the unfortunate ones who also suffer from insomnia ;)
-
Ugh. Insomnia. *twitch*
-
Actually it is a form of therapy, and all you need is like one night of missed sleep to start to see an effect and reset your cortiisol levels. It would not be unethical to do so.
