Where the hell is my fire TV remote. I just had the damn thing. I haven't gotten my fat ass up off the sofa, and yes I've checked down the cushions and over the side.

I lose mine on the top of the back of the sofa, sometimes.

Over the side and under the sofa turned out to be the sweet spot. If I install the app on my phone, does that mean I'll start losing my phone?

Things I apparently need tracking devices on:
- my tweezers
- keys
- lighter (for rare candles)
- correct coloured bra for chosen outfit
- landline handset - although that's because only my Godfather ever calls me on it
- stamps
- buspass
- glasses/ prescription sunglasses
- library books
- birdfood
- appropriate footwear

The one thing I can always find is my umbrella, because knowing how easily I misplace things I decided to prop it up on the landing outside my flat (I'm on the top floor, so no-one uses this space but me). I've only unfurled it once since I bought it because I have short hair and prefer to wear a hat.

Boxers. Boxers have me mildly irritated today.

To wit:

In his most recent fight Floyd Moneyweather made app. $180 million bucks. For 36 minutes fight time. 2,160 seconds. $180,000,000. That's $83,333 per second.

Awesome? Not even close.

In 1988, Mike Tyson knocked out then undefeated Michael Spinks in 91 seconds. Tyson made $22 million. In 91 seconds.

That comes to $241,758 per second.

So, yeah, I'm just a little ticked rfn.

oh, I thought you had an underwear malfunction issue

infinite monkey · 07-16-2015, 09:48 AM

Sleep deprivation. I guess that's to be expected when one works two jobs at opposite ends of a day, but I am B-E-A-T BEAT today.

That's OK, I don't work the 9 am job on Friday so after I get off work at 1 a.m. tonight (tomorrow morning) I have a bottle of wine ready...then don't have to go to a job until 9 pm Friday night.

Then I have a whole weekend! I haven't had an entire weekend in a couple of months. What, oh what, will I do? The world is my salmon (I hate oysters.)

glatt · 07-16-2015, 10:14 AM

Can you sleep OK when it's time to sleep?

infinite monkey · 07-16-2015, 11:07 AM

Usually I can...the problem is I haven't been able to lately. I used to try to take a fitful nap between jobs, then get about 5 hours at night (around 2 am to around 7 am) but the nap has been a bust and so has the sleeping at night. I don't know why. I just toss and turn. I feel pretty used to the schedule so I'm not sure why I suddenly can't sleep, when my entire life I could've won an Olympic medal in being able to sleep great almost all the time.

glatt · 07-16-2015, 11:12 AM

Weird. That sucks.

Try stretching before you sleep. Especially this stretch, with your butt right up against the wall.

I started doing this recently and it has done wonders for my sleep. I stay in that pose for a minute or two just before climbing in to bed.

infinite monkey · 07-16-2015, 11:15 AM

I'll try it. At night I am often pretty achy from the physical work. I don't take many pain relievers, due to the aforementioned wine, so maybe achy leg/feet/hip thing isn't helping. Maybe the stretching will help.

infinite monkey · 07-16-2015, 11:26 AM

btw, glatt, you look totally different in that pic! Is your new name gaitlyn?

glatt · 07-16-2015, 12:12 PM

Try it. It will press your lower back against the floor and decompress your spine. Obviously, if it hurts, stop doing it, but I think you will find it relaxing, and you will sleep better. It will also stretch your legs. One or two minutes only.

And don't stand up quickly after doing this or you will faint. Get up slowly and crawl into bed.

glatt · 07-16-2015, 12:18 PM

Oh, and too much wine will hurt your sleep too. It generally helps you fall asleep faster, but then disrupts the sleep later in the night. Which seems so unfair. Moderation.
