Am I the only person still awake?

[DozyDoll]

Have only joined MNET few days ago - am hooked and wide awake due to DP's horrific snoring and 2 of my 4 DC taking it in turns to wake up - chicken pox, chest infections, colds etc are rife in my house...anyone out there to chat to ... about ANYTHING...AT... ALL?

awake, 'cos can't sleep :)

Hi - your the first ever message on my first ever thread - sorry, no prize! Are you a regular insomniac or just an occasional?

Hiya from sunny australia am hiding with the laptop by the air con

hi, I'm still here. welcome to MN.

typical. I spend weeks trying to kill a particular thread, then manage to kill this one in one fell swoop.

Air con, eh - guffaw! There was no need to share that with the group, cjdamoo! So, not only are you in non-centrally heated warmth, neither are you having to survive the next 24 hours on approximately 2.5 hours sleep, because it's daytime where you are, so you shouldn't be sleeping anyway! I'm happy for you honestly No, you can't be me!

Can't sleep as DS1 woke me up at 1am to say he has received his first unconditional uni offer!!!! So excited for him.

Congratulations for your son Sherbert, that's fantastic!

No, the threads alive and kicking...I just keep losing my page I'm clumsy and slow (tiny keyboard - netbook not laptop you see). Please to virtually meet you giyadas - sorry for spelling. Don't forget there's a real possibility of someone nodding off at the keyboard at this unearthly hour unless you're in Australia of course!

Am ignoring the aussie [sniff] nothing to do with jealousy, mind. Nope, not jealous at all!

Don't mention the cricket...?

Thanks Giyadas. So glad to be able to TELL someone. We are in Scotland and it is so good having the grades before applying. Takes away some of the stress. This is his 2nd choice uni so he'll hope for an offer from the first. But now have to face the reality that he will actually be going.

cricket? what the good result?

SHould really really be alseep. But have just finished a project and my brian was wired. Currently waiting to see if microsoft time and real time are going to meet in the middle so that i can shut the computer down.

I am a selfinflicted insomniac
but when I sleep at least I get uninerrupted sleep

I have to change the pattern, as I feel my brain may get used to not sleeping at night

Three cheers for Sherbert's son. Hip Hip...

unconditional hooray!

Aww thanks. Better try and get some sleep now. Night all.

Can I join in?

Hooray!

I think we should simultaneously log off on the count of three. I'll have to give myself a computer curfew in the manner of my 14 year old DD's!

Bright and cheery you're killing me - was just about to log off. But seeing as though you're here...If I'd known that you were coming I'd have baked a cake!

you won't manage it, I bet. MN is very addictive.

Oh how yummy - Thankyou for the thought - can I be cheeky & request the most calorific chocolatey gooey one ever please for next time?!

Off you pop, I will let ou have my zzzzzz...night night. x

How long have you been a part of this Mumsnet madness allthingsbright&beautiful&cheery?

Yes, you're right and so to bed and all that. Sleep tight everyone x

Dipping in & out for 6 months or so I guess - Madness is a great use of vocab on your part! Never a truer word spoken. What did we do before the www arrived - can anyone remember??
