    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Another night of no sleep *sighs*
Gotta love whatever weird insomnia i have... Just hits me at random some days, usually on days where i end up having to go to work for a long period of time. (or days that i really should get alot of sleep because i have so much to do!) but it usually happens a few times a month. Very frustrating.

I had the gut feeling tonight on my way back from a friends house that i should stop and get Nyquil (this stuff knocks me out cold! Its Magic i swear!) Of course, i decided against it and now here i am. 6 am...no...nearly 7am with hardly any rest in my system at all. woohoo!



:thumbsup:
 
Ambien works wonders for insomnia, it helped me a lot. Sucky thing is it stops working after about six months. :-(
 
Insomnia and I are good old friends. I have had it for periods of a few weeks to sometimes up to 6 months. I never know what triggers it. Sometimes stress, sometimes hormones, sometimes nothing. I just try to deal with it as best as possible. I try to stick to the same schedule as much as possible. Lately with all the holiday jazz, I haven't slept much at all. I haven't taken anything for it, just too afraid of any type of depencency issues to come up. Good luck and hopefully it won't last long.
 
Well if anything is comforting, your not alone. My sleeping habit is a lot like yours. Last night I could not sleep at all, and insomnia hits me here and there. Best thing to do is not worry about not sleeping. ( Hard for me since I have an anxiety disorder.) The worst insomnia I had was I went without any sleep for three and a half weeks. I would end up trancing out in the middle of the day and had a car accident related to that. :ack2: Hey at least over the counter sleeping pills work for you.
During my long bout of insomnia, my place was sparkling clean and it's amazing what is on TV real late at night.
