I wonder and sometimes worry. Herein lie those ponderings with perhaps some editing but still in their truer forms. Whisper as well, though in truth, whispers are just that, rustlings in the wind and nothing more. It is kind to not be alone with one's own whispers.

Almost noon.

I... didn't mean to, or even want to, stay awake. But, here I am.
Definitely goodnight now. And morning (still, here anyway), and day... good, good, all of whichever.
Yea. I have learned that as health improves, sleep wasn't... far ahead. But it was at least a bit ahead, usually. Oh, and when health is good, sleep is more regular. As well, when health is well managed, my need for sleep diminishes, to about eight hours. If I lose health, or push things in my condition, it'll cost me. Still costing me, running three days through with little sleep. Messed. Up.
When in my prime, six hours was the best for performance. Of sleep. But I would get cranky over time. Especially if that was encroached. Though, for extended periods, it would eventually get to me. Weekends, if possible, were used for extra sleep and naps. Unless I was busy for three or four months, running crazy hours, double shifts, and six hours of sleep even then on rare occasions. Going under, in more ways and places and such than imagined.
If your health is golden, you can spend or dispense sleep. If not, sleep will spend you. Well, that's how I'd put it.
