My whole life I have been an easy sleeper. Got some time to kill? A nap sounds good. Don’t have to be anywhere until 3PM tomorrow? Sleep until 2:45PM. Lately though if something happens after I have gone to bed that wakes me up, I’m up. No matter how long I stay in bed I can not go back to sleep. This was a problem until I realized I could just get up at 3AM to write and draw comics. I’ll sleep when I’m tired.
Today’s Maximumble is coming at you.
Ever have that dream where you’re falling? What if it isn’t a dream..?
Don’t worry, whether it’s a dream or not, I’ll have my trusty parachute on me. I hope.
Considering the way I always seem to slam into the bed, when I wake from those. I’m not entirely sure they are dreams.
Because I was diagnosed with mania as a teenager, I had been given anti-psychotics with sedative properties (i.e. make me drowsy every time). So, no, I had been diagnosed with sleep disorders since I was a baby. I have trouble falling asleep. So yes, I’m up in the middle of the night commenting on today’s comic!
Sometimes I fall asleep easily, and sometimes not. It was most noticable for me while I was still in school, because then I would sleep badly for a week or two, and then suddenly fall asleep much easier for the next week or two (and then: Rinse and repeat!).
Oh, and I like how Biff’s eyebrows curl when he falls!
I used to sleep well at night. Then I took an arrow in the knee…
Last night, I dreamed I was eating a giant marshmallow……
