What's keeping you awake at night?

Back in 2009 I jumped into internet marketing.

Was doing SEO back then, and just before my sites got ranked a google update bych slapped me to lowest of low ranks.

I gave up.

Now I've learned to be persistent and finally got going with internet marketing.

But it wasn't untill I realised that the desire to make money online gave me insomnia.

I would be up all night at times trying to figure out how to make money online.

My situation, my status the way I was looked down at kept me awake at night.

So....

What keeps you awake at night?

What is that one thing that gives you insomnia?

  • Claude!

  • Nothing much, l know that if l keep up with my business goals, or doing enough flyers per week, then all is well, (knock on wood).

    But sure l have had times, when all seemed hopeless, and the abyss was staring me in the face, (the abyss, is thinking you won't get this to work, and end up sitting on a street corner selling pencils, while your friends that told you, to get a stupid job, while you can, hang around).

    But the abyss, the failure, half a dozen biggies, (the ones that make most cave in) the soul searching, and doubting yourself are all part of the adven,...ahem, suffering that is needed to win.

    So, what keeps me up at night? Probably taking idiot advise seriously, giving up and looking for a stupid job!

  • I got a dead guy lives in my apartment.

    Daytime, he jus' lies wherever he fell, fluids oozin' out all over the carpet.

    Night time, he comes lookin' for me.

    I feel him suck out my brains through a straw after he done singin' his song.

    Evrythin' goes blank for a while, like I am dreamin' but mebbe don't realise, an' then the dead guy spits back what he been suckin' on.

    Thing is, straw always leaves a hole.

    So he stitches it up so I don't see.

    Only I do see.

    I am purty sharp that way.

    Mornin' comes, I run to the mirror an' pull back my hair.

    Always, there are stitches, tied in a bow.

    A tiny mark, but I know what to look for now.

    When I turn away from my reflection an' look for the guy slumped on the carpet, I sumtimes imagine I see his beady eye close -- like he been takin' a last salacious peek at my wakin' nightmare.

    Beyond that, I figure global warmin' is pretty scary.

    An' I do not much like slugs also.

    'Part from that, I am kinda regular, I guess.

    I keep thinking that if I die before he does, I'll be rid of him forever. If he dies before I do, I'll be rid of him forever.

    I stay awake at night...counting the minutes.

    Some day.....some day.....

    • That's Plan B.

      Plan C involves painting a picture of a tunnel on the side of a mountain with a sign that says, "Free all you can eat buffet that way =>".

  • So if l place a heavy bear over the donuts, then Claude will never know that it is him, ooooookkkkkkkkk.

    Either that or if l place a 1 ton weight over the donuts, he will never know what hit him?

    Never a good idea to reply to this late at night, l know l keep trying.


    True, the Blue ribbon ones, are my favorites, well the ones with cats and mice, although Bugs Bunny and Elmer have some classics.

    Daffy Duck, hmmm, when he tees up with bugs then it becomes very funny.

  • Nonsense, after reading Claude's last Will and Testament, (end of the roll of toilet paper) he specifically states, "if any person/s, attempts to cause my demise, it is my last wish that l am allowed to finish off the food, that is likely placed in my path, dog, cat food and vegetables, being the exception".

  • What is keeping me awake now,.....not knowing if Claude fell of his cleave, after reading my Bond post?

  • WTF is a cleave?

    How does one fall off a verb?

    • You don't watch MASH much, do you.

      Cleave, living end, Killroy was here, are old terms, but still used.

      Living end is a word describing a Baffoon, and Cleave, is probably a nice way of saying falling on your ar**.

      MASH is G rated, so they tend to get creative when swearing.

      Cleave was Jean-Claude Van Damme's brother.

      Or was it Cletus?

  • Sleeping during the day is keeping me awake at night and also drinking too much coffee.

    For my opinion, having to much problem to think and also too much stress is the main reason that causes insomnia

    • "Sleeping during the day is keeping me awake at night"

      You figured that out all by yourself?

      How's the signature link clicking going.
  • Totally unrelated but House of cards will be the reason why I sleep late tonight, that's if I sleep at all
  • Of course lots of stress. And lots of caffeine I guess
  • When im nervous or too much excited!
  • Anxiety probably.

    That and stuff I end up kicking off my bed!
