I go to bed between 12 and 1 most nights (damm Conan O'Brien for being so funny).

Anyway I lie there for hours tossing and turning. I have restless leg syndrome (but I really don't want to take the Requip drug or any sleeping tabs as they make me feel like a zombie later). I usually fall asleep around 4am, and get up at 8. If I don't have to work then i'll grab another 3 hours either in the morning or when I crash later in the day.

Anything less than 6 and I feel deprived of sleep. Anything more than 8 is like winning the lotto...
