Who Needs Sleep? Sleep Quotes and #PSF

Thursday, November 20, 2014 by Lolli 5 Comments

 

who needs sleep?

Who needs sleep?
Well, you’re never gonna get it
Who needs sleep?
Tell me what’s that for
Who needs sleep?
Be happy with what you’re getting
There’s a guy who’s been awake
Since the Second World War

My hands are locked up tight in fists
My mind is racing, filled with lists
Of things to do and things I’ve done
Another sleepless night’s begun

There’s so much joy in life,
So many pleasures all around
But the pleasure of insomnia
Is one I’ve never found
With all life has to offer,
There’s so much to be enjoyed
But the pleasures of insomnia
Are ones I can’t avoid.

– Barenaked Ladies (Who Needs Sleep)

who needs sleep?

I was chatting with my friend, Brett, this morning about how badly I wanted to take a nap. I’ve been keeping myself too busy lately, between work, kids’ activities (and the insane hour I have to wake them up in the morning), and life in general. Sleep is one of those things I long for every day but never seem to get enough of.

No day is so bad it can’t be fixed with a nap. – Carrie Snow

And since I’ve been too busy/tired/distracted to take any noteworthy pictures this week, I decided to dedicate this Photostory Friday post to sleep.

And then I think I may just have to call it a night and get more than 5 hours of shut eye tonight…

who needs sleep?

I’ll leave you with a few of my favorite quotes about sleep…

Sleep is perverse as human nature,
Sleep is perverse as legislature….
So people who go to bed to sleep
Must count French premiers or sheep,
And people who ought to arise from bed
Yawn and go back to sleep instead.
– Ogden Nash, Read This Vibrant Exposé

cure insomnia quote

People who say they sleep like a baby usually don’t have one. – Leo J. Burke

If a man had as many ideas during the day as he does when he has insomnia, he’d make a fortune. – Griff Niblack

Irish Proverb Sleep

People who snore always fall asleep first. – Author Unknown

There is no snooze button on a cat (or a child!) who wants breakfast. – Author Unknown

    I have worked nightshift for 14 years now! I can literally sleep anywhere! Sporting events, movies, karate class…..even in the shower! The things we do for our kids and money!

    I just watched a tedtalks on sleep and doctors always wondered why humans have to sleep, the research says that’s how your brain cells recharge.
