Sleep is for the weak
I have a very ambivalent relationship to sleep. On the one hand, “sleep is for the weak” as I always say. I’ll have plenty of time to sleep when I’m old, now is the time to stay up late and get up early while my body can take the punishment. But on the other hand if I get less than 8 hours of sleep I just don’t function very well, and anything less than 6 hours of sleep will completely eradicate my day.
There are few things as nice as waking up around 11 and just lounging around in your bed with a cat or two and some terrible American sitcoms until noon (or Rumblefish, if you hit the TV jackpot! What were they thinking airing a film like that when nobody who cares is home to watch? Well, except slacking film students, I suppose).
Still, time spent sleeping is time not spent watching a great film or playing a great game or reading a great book or working on TNM. I can’t help but feel it’s a bloody waste of time. I really need to learn to meditate.

TV shows.
“# be broadcast; “This show will air Saturdays at 2 P.M.”
# broadcast over the airwaves, as in radio or television; “We cannot air this X-rated song” ”
Even though superior languages are speaking of some form of sending or another

OH. It was a correction. Now I get it.
Right you are. Fixed
