UO. Because Thursday.

Chipotle is OVERRATED!

Also I don't like JT's music. But I like him as an actor.

[shock]

Pssh. 8 am is early for me. 10 is normal.


Now, 6:30 is ungodly early. DH woke DS up and now he won't go back to sleep.

[McBenny]

LOL at all the early risers talking about early rising with one another.

This. Plus weren't they recently found to have ripped off their employees?

[McBenny]

I don't care what time other people get up. I really really don't.

I just don't like the implication that if I don't pop my ass out of bed before 9am that my shit isn't getting done. I get all I need to get done and then some. When I want to get up early or need to I do and can. If I don't have to then I don't and won't. The Earth keeps spinning.

We alternate sleeping in on most weekends. It can mean that the sleeping parent does no childcare or family stuff until noon.

It's like being on vacation every weekend and I love it.

[McBenny]

I have never had Chipotle.

[McBenny]

Sleeping in has never prevented me from doing anything or caused loss in my life.

[icaughtfire]

I'm team sleep until whenever the hell you want. I can wake up at 5 for work & sleep until noon on a weekend. I don't think it makes me less of an adult.

[Deleted]

Who knew wake up time was an emotional topic?

[McBenny]

I feel like both of us can do whatever the fuck we want on the weekends in my home. Just not at the same time.

A highlight of our weekends is not having to be structured.

A friend and I were talking about this theory (from a book) of breaking people into two groups: those who feel time is infinite and those who feel time is finite.

Those who feel time is infinite feel like there will always be time to get things done that need to be done, so they don't panic until it's crunch time.

Those who feel time is finite need to get things done as soon as they can and feel stressed out by time interrupters.

Tl;dr I think this time theory is relevant to the sleep discussion.

Bacteria is killed by antibiotics and I am absolutely positive that they are taking every precaution so this seems weird to me.

... E. coli isn't treated with antibiotics...

Also there were multiple norovirus outbreaks as well and that is some scary shit.

Don't get me wrong, I still eat all the Chipotle, but my food science coworkers judge me harshly for it.

as a queen of procrastination I guess I see time as infinite.

me too. Once she explained it to me, I was like oh shit! I've always been this way.

[redbears]

I would never in a million years get up one second earlier than I absolutely had to. If my kids sleep until 8:15, I'm asleep until 8:15

Also, the Airpod is cool and I am all for it, but DNMFW $160 ear buds.
That's not courageous, that's a ripoff

[babys2015]

I get up at 530 regularly. So I can have a cup of coffee in peace before the boys wake, usually by 6am.

I'm super lame though and go to bed by 9..

[McBenny]

I also have a different thinking on this whole parenting thing. I don't try to inject parts of my life in and around parenting. I injected being a parent into my life.

+1 I ate there in March after things were apparently improved and they sent me a coupon for a free burrito. I got food poisoning at 4 months pregnant. It was...not good. Never again. Eta 4 months not 5

This is quite interesting.

Obviously I fall into the "time is finite" category because... well in my mind it is, eventually you run out of time and die.

The "time is infinite" to me is just a fancier way to explaining away procrastination.

But, hello I'm a well-documented Type A fool here.

I'm relying on third hand retelling of the theory, but I think I got the gist.

I used to call myself a procrastinator but that always felt like a negative. This theory makes me feel just as worthy because I'm not purposefully avoiding most of the time. I never drop the ball, I just worry about balls in a different order and at a different time.

Time is infinite!

I don't get the appeal of an Airbnb. Do not want to sleep in a stranger's house

DNW headphones that I have to charge. Plus, they are so small that I know I would eventually lose one.

[McBenny]

I won't be on my deathbed wishing I got up early more in life.

I think Birkins are ugly and I would never buy one. I know that's not exactly the point of a Birkin, but there are lots of expensive bags that are also beautiful. Give me some Chanel or Chloe any day.

At first, I thought you were talking about burkinis lol!

Not for humans.

Maybe for jellyfish or other creatures that live for hundreds of years like shark and lobsters, but humans have +/- 100 years on this Earth.

Geologically speaking, that's a split second.

nerd!
