Does cake count? IDK. It's not really junk food, is it? It's more like the food of life.
I'm a sucker for humbugs. I could eat them forever. And Hot Tamales. So delish. I never eat chocolate though.
Hello! Eh, don't worry about rambling. By far, not the longest post we've had 😀 Welcome to the forum!
Hello! Welcome to the madness 😀
I love comics, have for, well, as long as you've been alive (that makes me sound older than I am *facepalm* Oh well). Which ones do you read?

I'm going with Indian, but I actually prefer Thai.

Flannel Pyjamas I think…although my silk pyjamas are awesome 🙂
Goa'uld or Ori?
Goa'uld. I think the Ori had absolutely no fashion sense at all. Even if they did have Innara and Julian Sands.
Atlantis or Serentiy?

Captain Jack Harkness or Colonel Jack O'Neill?
Not even a hesitation. Jack O'Neill. AND YOU SPELT HIS NAME RIGHT. 😀

James Tiberius Kirk or Jean-Luc Picard?
I hate Earl Grey. Too flowery for me. Ugh.

Polyphonic chant or monophonic chant?

Green tea or black tea?
Black tea. WHAT. I'm English. Always black tea. (Although I do quite like green tea with honey) (And I hate Earl Grey)
Fruit or pie? (Fruit pie is not an acceptable answer)

Lego or MegaBloks?
ooooo now that is a tough one. I'd have to say LEGO simply because we had every single piece of LEGO ever made when I was growing up. I don't mean every set. I mean every piece. Mine. All mine.
Email or snail-mail?

Been a chronic insomnia for the better part of 30 years and been on every drug known to mankind to combat it. Haven't won yet. It took me four years to wean off antidepressants and Ativan…….
I currently take 7.5 mg. of Zopiclone or you may know it as Immovane and it does nothing for me. I'm at the end of my rope, and starting to develop all sorts of problems related to immune disorders…I believe from basically being run down from lack of sleep and my body falling apart. LOL
I have Celiac Disease, Type 2 Diabetes, High Cholesteral and generally feel like crap all day. But it is amazing how much I can accomplish according to so many of my friends. I still work out everyday, and walk, keep a beautiful home, do hand crafts, etc. I just push forward even though I'm sick all the time. I have to or else I would end up back on the all a/d and other meds for depression.
I don't know what more to say other than I wish I could find out why I don't sleep. I was abused as a child, and wonder if I am not in the flight/fight mode all the time, and can't settle. My doctor believes me to be a bit ADHD as I am such a mover, and my mind goes constantly. I won't take the drugs for ADHD as they have a side affect of insomnia. So many of these darn drugs do.
I wonder what other people do who are my situation. I crave for a good night of sleep. Haven't gotten more than 3 hours /night for years, and that is not consecutive. I was also out to a sleep disorders clinic and told I had sleep state misperception. I say, NOT !!! I am awake.

Welcome to the forums, Deb. If nothing else, you'll find people in similar situations here who can understand your predicaments. I think a lot of have many different hobbies in order to occupy us. Insomniacs, creative minds at work ;D
I've had insomnia all my life as well. I'm told it started when I was a baby and nearly died from cellulitis developed from a tainted shot. So maybe there's a connection to significant trauma disrupting our sleep mentality? Interesting thought. I've also been through sleep clinics, being told that I anything from chronic insomnia, to adhd, to an extremely unusual body clock. *shrugs* Who knows.
It's a difficult life, esp when it starts afftecting your health in the ways you have described. You sound like a strong woman, and I have nothing but respect for that.
