Porcher Odyssey Pre-Planning Discussion Phase II

[MikeE3]

Yeh, thought it might be too so I stopped drinking cafeinated beverages after around 2:30/3:00 in the afternoon. Helps a little but, then again I could drink one right before bed in the past and go out like a light.

Caffeine has a long half life - I think it's around 6 hrs (+/-). I stopped drinking coffee after my morning cups. Around supper time - it's stickily decaf.

I can still drink some java right before bed and it doesn't seem to affect me........

One of the lucky ones. A good friend could have a cup of full strenght coffee at 10pm and be sound asleep by 10:15. He enjoyed a cup of coffee before bedtime. Yikes!

This whole odyssey trip would be so much simpler if Mike could get the Time Travel / Transporter finished. We could transport back and forth at our leisure - of course Mike would have to make the transport gear light enough that we can carry it in our suitcases so if we were going on a trip and wanted to have the tech handy...

Get cracking Mike...

Years back, I could wake up at 3am - have a cup - and then go back to bed till 6am...

I can drink a pot of coffee & take a nap. But can't sleep at night.

Personally I haven't really noticed much change myself.

 

[clnire]

I can't even drink caffeinated iced tea after about 3 pm or I won't sleep.

I used to be able to drink coffee before bed too and then started going to bed, dog tired, and just couldn't sleep. Stopped drinking coffee after 5:00 and started sleeping again. Of course I used to be able to eat like a longshoreman and not put on any weight either...

Especially after six straight hours on da HO!

Mike may need Ken's 3D printer expertise fer da critical parts. But Ken's been knitting inni belly button plugs and is battling high speed plastic spittin'!

Sounds as though we must exercise da GSDR, Gracie sleep deprivacation regimen! BTW, it don't work fer Deba!

Three hours to drink a cup of java... in bed ?!?!?

"Day-um da naps, full sleep ahead!"

I'm through with coffee by about 10am. I usually drink water or herbal iced tea after that. I haven't been able to sleep since about 95 when I had a job that I had to get up at 3am to get to. From that point on my sleeping patterns have been wonky.

Hi guys...

A question that was brought up a while back keeps popping up in my brain, as in insurance for the tiki house. Do you all think it's a good idea?

( i.e,,Matt fallin in the pool and crackin his head, me burning up the coffee pot or drownin in the tub, Johnny fallin thru the porch netting...so on and so forth)

 

[Iffy]

... insurance for the tiki house. Do you all think it's a good idea?

Probably a good idea if rea$onable 'nuff.

Johnny fallin thru the porch netting...

Now dat would be a 'strain'...

Waddaya call a canary that flies through a screened door...



















... shredded tweet!

yeah somehow I'm gonna have to get my schedule flipped around for that week. I do sleep, I just do it at odd times.

I have done this.......my SIL and I used to once in awhile get a chicken biscuit from chik fil a, and we had the coffee pot by the bed. I thought she was nuts at first, but I soon learned the joy of dozing with a cup of coffee in one hand, and a chikky biscuit in the other. Wake up, bite....slurp....doze back off. Repeat as needed til the coffee and biscuit are gone

Ive had a USA biscuit at hash house a go go .
What y'all call a cookie we call a biscuit.
Your biscuit is more like what we call scones from the UK.

Nah I know the USA biscuits , Got more cred having actually been there.
No Poser who walks around wearing a USA basketball Shirt or other piece of clothing but has never been there here.
