Title: it was a silly idea!! Post by: Joobie538 on October 26, 2008, 07:10:36 AM erm..... this is beyond funny now! OK I'll set the scene........ It's 9pm Saturday and I've got a night of poker lined up. only problem is I'm feeling REALLY tired, seriously i could have fallen asleep sat upright on the sofa ffs! Can't have this it's Saturday night! So i wander into the kitchen and make myself a coffee. This is where my lazy streak kicks in (why not make an extra strong coffee it'll save me getting up in an hour or so to make another) I estimate that in my current state I'll need one cup of coffee for every hour of play. (5 cups is probably the optimum amount) SOO 5 heaped teaspoons of coffee go into my regular sized coffee mug along with about the same volume of water should do the trick!!! I begin to have doubts when i stare into the mug at the treacle like substance (hmmm is this really such a good idea?) lazy joobs speaks up and reminds me of the inconvenience of constant treks to the kitchen - what the heck whats the worst that could happen?? pinch the nose down it goes......... Now this was 11 hrs ago AND I'M STILL WIDE AWAKE!!! AND to make matters worse i FAR to hyper/jittery to do anything even remotely constructive!!! (did bake some lovely bread rolls at 4am) seriously HELP!! how the hell can i get to sleep? I've tried a similar concentration of horlicks and that has had no effect! (tasted bloody awful too) only other thing i can think of is nightol - how many would i need to take to counteract the caffeine?? hmmm maybe that'll be a last resort oh and what time does MacDonald's open might as well go and get some breakfast!! Title: Re: it was a silly idea!! Post by: The_nun on October 26, 2008, 07:18:29 AM LOL.
You are in for a crap day I think. Drink pleanty of water or cranberry, flush your system. Title: Re: it was a silly idea!! Post by: Joobie538 on October 26, 2008, 07:59:17 AM Right, 2 pints of water drunk (no cranberry juice in the house only cranberry vodka drink and i didn't think that would help) last of the bread rolls polished off (i resisted the urge to devour the double sausage and egg mcmuffin that's been taunting me for the last 5hrs - hmm could i be hallucinating??) now just need SLEEP!! unfortunately my eyelids seem to be held open with springs!! can only close them for a few seconds before they force themselves back open again! I won't be doing this again in a hurry!! Title: Re: it was a silly idea!! Post by: Laxie on October 26, 2008, 08:37:06 AM OMG...Joobs wired on a caffeine overdose?! What a combination! rotflmfao rotflmfao Yer day is about to suck. Enjoy!
Title: Re: it was a silly idea!! Post by: Jon MW on October 26, 2008, 10:15:28 AM Well no updates for a couple of hours so I'm assuming you must have managed to pass out.
That must make a nice change for you - passing out due to tiredness rather than alcohol :) Title: Re: it was a silly idea!!

(yes it does) sleep arrived at 10ish but has sadly gone again now Title: Re: it was a silly idea!! Post by: The-Crow on October 26, 2008, 12:30:52 PM Try watching an old episode of Star Trek The Next Generation, make sure its one you have seen at least 5 times already
This always works for me, sleep comes swiftly Title: Re: it was a silly idea!! Post by: KarmaDope on October 26, 2008, 06:59:14 PM Least you dont have to put up with her today...
I'll set a scene, I'm sat at the comp playing on FT, and she's got lappy playing Stars when all of a sudden I hear "Badugi!!" "Badugi?", I enquire. "Yeah, I have Badugi, Ace high, it's great!" she replies. "Erm, honey, aren't you playing a PLO SnG?" I ask. "Yeah, but I've got Badugi!!" she replies. I think nothing more of it and go back to the game, and hear the sounds of the next hand being dealt. Then I hear a sad whisper... "Now I haven't got Badugi..." Title: Re: it was a silly idea!!

I was playing random tracks on my iTunes when "Danny Boy" by Elvis Presley comes on, which I didn't know I had. I then asked Joobs what she thought it was. Her reply? "Yeah, I know, What's-His-Name!!" Cue much banging of head on wall... Title: Re: it was a silly idea!!
