I miss not feeling like I was dying, but, on the other hand, I love crankily judging things. -
It's more the headaches and heartburn than anything else. I have no idea why a nap tends to set that off for me. I've been dealing with headaches when I wake up and I've come to the conclusion that I think I clench my teeth a lot. Trying to train myself to quit that. Mouthguard?

That's probably it, then; if I nap it tends to be for 2+ hours. It's like if I fall asleep, my body wants to sleep for hours and anything less gets me all out of sorts. Napping before going out would just leave me even more tired. I feel a bit groggy maybe when i first wake up, but a shower and that first drink and i'm good. It's more the headaches and heartburn than anything else. I have no idea why a nap tends to set that off for me.

I can see what you're saying with the voice, but he just has such good chemistry with whoever he shares the booth with. I heard someone say he sounds like Ray Romano. What in the world.

Gotta keep em short. 20 min or so tops. Beyond that...yeah...it can mess with you. That's probably it, then; if I nap it tends to be for 2+ hours.

agreed... he's a little bit of an acquired taste, i think, though. at least, for me, when he first got hired, i hated his voice. he had to win me over with the things he said. I can see what you're saying with the voice, but he just has such good chemistry with whoever he shares the booth with.

I'm not a good napper. I have trouble falling asleep when it's light out unless I'm just completely exhausted, and inevitably I feel like horsefeathers after a nap. Tried, headache, indigestion...I don't get it at all. Makes me feel like zombie for the rest of the day.

I think I should get an uncomfortable couch. This one just pushes me in to sleep's sweet, sweet embrace.
-
People hating Len is just flat-out baffling. He's so good at what he does.

My most common thought when I see movie or a TV show or a news story or anything that's set in the middle of the night is, "my god, how is everyone not completely exhausted?" I am completely addicted to a full night's sleep now and I don't know what flipped the switch to the point that if I don't get at least 7 hours I am destroyed. I think back to how little I would sleep until I was, like, 35 and honestly have no idea how the [expletive] I could operate at all. I saw Pearl Jam in Wrigley Monday night, got to bed at 1, up by 4, on a plane by 6 and in the office by 10:30 and I've been paying for it all week. And that used to be NOTHING, and now that sounds like a straight up nightmare. Threaten me with that and I'd confess to everything. I can't imagine actually being, like, 75, because I swear I'm already there.

I feel like that picture was taken in the middle of some version of this:
-
I mean, we realize this is cranky hyperbole and not a weird, turn into a pumpkin at the stroke of midnight-version of insomnia, yes?
-
This site definitely is the kind of angry, snarky place where for a split-second I was really worried about all of the posts I had made past midnight, like it was going to be this terrible gotcha-moment of shame, until I came to my senses and realized only fatheaded clods would actually care about something like that. We've made a good thing here, people.
-
I'm more at unease over the couch, though between that at the remote I'm assuming/hoping it's a hotel. Though it would still be pretty shitty hotel. Step it up, Starlin.

I'm almost 40 and I need to get up every morning to exercise so I don't die. You whippersnappers can eat my butt.
-
That's the thing, though; Vin Scully for most of his career WAS great; but he doesn't sound like that all all anymore. The weak, rambling way he sounds now does nothing but remind me of the impending slow decay of inescapable death. Like, I loved when he called that really, really good outing Maddux had against the Dodgers like, what, over a decade ago? He doesn't sound at all like that now.
-
But then it's almost time for bed. I'm old, dammit. It's a miracle if I'm up past midnight.
-
Got horsefeathers to do, you vagabond.
-
Holy horsefeathers. Noriega is on the lam and he's Starlin's dad.
-
What do you think it is? Meatball-rage over the Cubs not having some beloved ex-Cub in the booth? Bitterness over Len not being party of Harry's family of the damned? Inexplicable longing for dead soul-smarminess of Steve Stone?
-
People keep posting clips of him this season, like, "LOOK WHAT WE WILL LOSE," and they all just sound so, so, so bad.
-
They played this game already, right? Having to wait this long between games is something nobody would have to do.
-
OPS under 1.000 for the last year? BUST.
