Isn’t it amazing?

7 April 2009

Sorry for not posting in a long while.

Isn’t it amazing that there are still things yet to be explained by science?

If you know me, you know that I am pretty much an insomniac. Once I’m asleep I love to sleep, but I’ll do everything in my will to not sleep to begin with. I always feel like I’m missing out on something or doing something when I’m asleep.

This yields a sleep schedule that is the height of irregular. I stay awake long into the night, often all the way until the next day and can continue to do this for several days with minimal napping before I crash.

Then I got to thinking.  I read in a magazine that scientists aren’t exactly sure why we sleep.  They know we need to.  They know we get really tired if we don’t.  But they aren’t completely sure why.  What exactly does sleep do?  What is sleep even?  They’re not 100% sure.

I think that’s pretty nifty.

Anyway, I just wanted to update since I haven’t in a while.
