Yes, I already said that- SUGGESTING that Simpkin could have captured Bartimaeus is an insult, don't you think? =)

Oh.
Gah, I need to pay more attention...

Lawlz, I've become immune to sleep deprivation. My insomnia is my friend now.

I had a bout of it awhile back.
I'm used to about five hours now, I used to HAVE to have my eight, so I'm making progress.
But I was at a friends house the night before, so I didn't sleep at all :)

Probably... two.
Or two would seem rather nice in the middle of the night.
Right?

I sleep anywhere between three and a half and twelve hours a day, depending on where I am and what I'm doing. My sleep patterns are very flexible.

Of course, school totally screws up all our sleeping patterns.

My sleep patterns are much more regular when I'm at uni. At least I get up at the same time every day (7:25).

Neither do I. I have to set three alarms and know there is a cooked breakfast waiting for me in order to get up at that time.

Somedays I get up at 5:30am & other days 8:15am. It's all because of my weird college timings. One day, our seniors called us to college at 6am & so I had to get up 4am. And they kept us there till 10:00pm! And this was on a Sunday too.I nearly died of exhaustion.

Yeah, one is enough. Only thing, I switch it off & go to sleep again. My father then comes & pulls me out of the bed.
