Title: Bedtime
Post by: bones129 on January 19, 2013, 12:43:41 AM
What is the optimum bedtime for goE's? After all, we have to strike a good balance between our goEMAW lives and our personal, business, and family lives (not necessarily in that order, Mrs. Bones). I'm thinking 1 a.m. on weekdays (presuming no major pak), and 3 a.m. onweekends (again not presuming a major pak).

Last year I started a fairly strict bedtime of 10pm so that I could get up and exercise every morning at 6.  I felt much better after doing that for a while.  I believe the extra sleep helped more than the 6am exercise.

Based upon your posts here, you are far too high-strung to sleep. You really should just take a deep breath, realize that the world's population problem, while very real, is not going to hit critical mass until far after you are dead, and that you are not going to have kids so it isn't their problem, either. Just sigh, relax, and start thinking about those poor rubes with kids and how their ancestors are all going to face a painful death that they and their forefathers bring upon themselves. Allow yourself to grow a deep grin, and before you know it, you will be the master of your own sleep and dreams as well.

Well, if they would have just ding donged it would have been fine but they also beat the piss out of the door for a few seconds.  I didn't hear a damned thing.  Mrs. Bf had to wake me up by saying "what if they have a gun."  That got my attention so I grabbed the Winchester 1300 and went to the kid's room first.  I didn't know she was calling the cops.

Yes, according to her they "beat on the door really hard."  She looked out the window and didn't see a car.  We live on a dead end street and its always been quiet and uneventful.

In her defense my uncle was staying with grandpa last year and one night someone was trying to beat down the back door.
Uncle Bf grabs the 12 ga. and goes to the back entrance.

Uncle Bf- "you come through that door and I blow your head off!"
Intruder- "GO AHEAD AND SHOOT ME SHOOT ME SHOOT ME!"

The guy kept trying to break down the door for awhile longer then gets tired and leaves in his truck.  Uncle Bf goes outside and finds the dumb bastards cell phone in the driveway.  He gave it to WPD Bf bro and they picked the dumb bastard up.

Oh yes they do.  Sometimes three of them kick down your front door at 3:00 a.m. and drag you, your wife, your mother and your two children from bed at gun point, make you lie down on the living room floor and cover you all up with a big blanket while they rob the crap out of your house and then steal your car.  Then that same night the three of them kick down another guy's door and do the same thing to him except one of them smokes a cig with him while the other two finish up (they took his car too).  Then several weeks later they get caught by the police and tried by a total boss stud and sent to prison.  The end.

That's a great story, but it's somewhat unbelievable that they went to the trouble to cover the family with blankets and didn't even bother raping the women and kidnapping the children.

I actually had my house broken into while I was in it about 10 years ago. Woke up at 5 a.m. and the back door was wide open. Grabbed my bat and walked to the front of the house. The front door was wide open.  Checked to make sure my room-mate had not been killed or raped. She hadn't. Called the cops. They took some jewelry, some money, two leather coats and a half bottle of Abercrombie and Fitch cologne. Apparently they hit about 5 houses in the neighborhood that night. They got caught a few days later selling our stuff at a pawn shop.
