On going to bed

I've always written-off my contempt for going to bed as contempt for the loss of time.  My day is over, woe is me, etc.  I don't care if I need the rest, and I don't care when I'm getting up the next morning.  I care for one thing: staying up.

This is not healthy.  I think I should invest in an alternative to sleeping.

I can see it now.  A machine, a machine that you hardwire to the brain, to the central nervous system, that fires off the right biological switches, sending your mind straight into restful sleep.  REM, the whole lot, instantly.  You'd sit, or lay, hit the switch, gain the sleep you need, then emerge not long after, ready for more.  That's not pure fiction, is it?

Another alternative would be to get the %#@& in bed and stop posting blogs.
