i live in dallas. work for me work starts at 5:30am and ends at 5:00 last valentines day me and my girl left for shreveport later that night. left around 9 didnt get there until midnight. went straight to the casinos. after long night of loosing money we went to check into a motel well i wasnt thinking it was valentines weekend and all the rooms there were booked. we searched for over an hour. we then decided wtf lets head back home. i drove whole way back. most time it was raining. i was seeing pink bunnies, multiple stripes on road. at one time i fell asleep for split second. freaked me out. was a real bad time i will never drive there again without booking a room first.

There will be plenty of time for that when I am dead. Who wants to waste their time sleeping???
I get up at 4a,take the dog out, go to the gym at 7a ( I take a train from Providence, RI to Boston,MA), work 8:30a until 5pm, get home about 7p, take the dog out and make dinner, by the time I sit down to relax, it is 9pm, go to sleep about 10pm and start all over.

Wow, that is really a comute. I only have seen you train people on tv.

I never seem to have spare time during the week. If I had your schedule, I would never get anything done.

Did I mention I am going to Nursing school too? So some nights, I don't get home until 1am, but then I ususally forgo the gym the next morning so I can sleep to a whopping 5:30a

I am really impressed, good for you. I went to college at night then I worked from 10 pm to 6 am. That was a long time ago. Could I do it now? No way. Do it awhile you are young and have the energy.
