Sleeping sucks. Period. ONE THIRD of your life: WASTED.
It could be worse. You could be one of those folks who need more than 8 hours sleep to feel rested. I need 9 and 1/2 hours, and Bunnygrrl typically sleeps 12 hours a day. That's HALF her life.

Since I posted that last bit, the following happened.
Sophie was playing in this room while Daddy was typing on the computer. All of a sudden, she stopped moving and started grunting - Sophie was going to the bathroom.
"Did you have a diaper?"
"I don't know."
"Sophie, did you have a diaper?" (more serious tone)
"I don't know!"
"Sophie, I know you know - don't lie to me. Now, did you have a diaper?"
Nods.
"Well, lets go change it then."
No big deal - we do this every day, and while it is gross it isn't so onerous that it merits attention on this thread.
But this time was different...
Unbeknownst to me, Mom put Sophie in her training pants, not in a diaper. This matters because the method of removal differs between the two, including the best position of the child when you remove the things.
I grab Sophie, swing her onto the changing table with her on her back, and casually just remove her pants like usual.
With the training pants coming up with them. With the feces making it just halfway before falling back down again, all over Sophies stomach and nether regions.
Of course, she is totally fascinated by this turn of events, and while saying "ewwwww", decides to probe the mass with her fingers (I'm holding feet, pants, and training pants, trying to put them (the training pants) in the diaper pail.)
But I hold my cool - I bark "Sophie, NO!" and she doesn't do too much damage... but when I am able to get some wipes, her hands are the first thing I reach for. Then the mass.
Well, she got a bath. Messes like that you just don't leave unwashed.
And while I don't mind changing her diaper, I sure HATED it this time!
That's it, no kids for me. Maybe I'll be a foster parent for teenagers. At least they're potty trained.

For me, it'd be sleeping. I can't freakin' stand it - you have 75+- years on this planet and you gotta WASTE 1/3rd of it unconcious - it's a bleedin' travesty I tell you.

Sleeping annoys me, too. For me, it's not as much the time wasted as the dreams. You don't have control over what kind of dreams you'll have, and they're either bad dreams which just suck, good dreams which suck when you wake up and notice you aren't having sex with a buxom blonde, and wacky dreams which are just useless. If there was some way to sleep in a way where you just go to sleep and instantaneously - but 7-8 hours later - just wake up, sign me up for that!
Che: Naw, it's no big deal. All you do is clean her up and give her a bath - don't worry, when it is your child it doesn't really matter. Anyway, what else was I going to do? Wait until her mother got home so she could change Sophie?

Waking up in the morning. I hate it more than anything in the world, because it leads directly to everything else i hate in the world. But I have to do it cos, well, my body refuses to let me sleep forever
I agree!
The only reason I was gone for so long was because I hate you people!!!
Plenty of things irritate me, but I don't do things I hate..why ruin my life that way?..if you hate your work, quit and find one you love, instead of having the quality of your life sucked away.
And why hate anything that irritates you? Just another way to screw with yourself..you decide what you hate, meaing you can at any point in your life decide you are sick of defining you life on what hurts, what is wrong, what it terrible, and what you suffer through, and that you will just STOP it.

Actually, it is a plainly obvious insight that people in general are too stupiud or stubborn to accept, otherwise people would stress themselves less, far far less.
