A Couple of Questions XII

Still haven't figured out our Easter plans.... probably ought to get on that.....

1. Describe the longest stretch you ever went without sleep....

2. What was the last movie you saw in a theater, and would you recommend it?

That's kind of freaky. I just came up with that question regarding sleep, and then saw the ad for "House" (I'm watching American Idol) in which a patient is admitted for not sleeping for 10 days straight. I promise the question was my own-

Love the pictures of your trip. Definitely think we will be taking advantage of the recommendation.

1. Gosh...not much because I need a lot of sleep. If I stay up too late or get to the point of exhaustion I will literally start crying and just fall apart. Either Senior All Night Party after graduation or this high school youth group overnight thing (when I was a leader) where I remember the following morning being SO exhausted and just wanting to go home and I had to take a girl home who lived way out in the middle of nowhere and when she got out of the car I cried all the way home I was so tired. Hmm... wonder why my daughter gets so emotional when she is tired? Could there be a connection?
2. I think Pride and Prejudice a few months ago, and yes, I would recommend it. Or possibly I saw Curious George after that (I'm sitting here racking my brain and attempting to figure out a time to get to a movie soon because I seriously can't remember!) and would only recommend it if you are under eight.

1. When I flew to Africa, the flight and anxiety overseas left me sleepless while on the plane. I arrived, middle of night, in Kenya and my then-fiance insisted I stay up all night so that I would get past the time change. Out of excitement, getting to the morning was no problem, but the whole rest of the day I was absolutely delirious. It's almost like an "out of body" experience....it's awful.

2. We just saw "Failure to Launch". I'll say it's a very cute and enjoyable movie, but perhaps not worth the full fare to see in a theater.

Let us know what you think - it looks like a neat movie...

1. Well ... I love sleep! In my 6 years of college I have never pulled an all nighter for study purposes! I have gone probably 30 hours or so w/o sleep - Mexico mission trip, senior all night party, beach date w/ Randy in High School (I was suppose to be staying the night w/ Chele:-)), perhaps a few more times.
2. Narnia - we don't get out to movies very often since Caleb showed up. Now that I'm finished nursing we will probably hit one soon (X-Men 3 comes out may 26th). Yes, I would recommend Narnia!

1. I tent to have bouts with insomnia but I usually just have very broken sleep, not long stretches of no sleep. But my first trip to the west coast 9 years ago I didn't sleep for 22 hours because of the time difference then going up to Portland to party with Pete and a couple of his friends.
2. Walk the Line.....Love it! asked for and got it for my Birthday, asked for and got the soundtrack for my b'day too.
