I don't listen to that, but I've heard of it! I honestly don't listen to a lot of radio.

I also had this alphabet board as a kid that said the names of the letters when you pressed the buttons. I found out the sound cuts off if you quickly press the same button again, and also found out that if you did that to "F" it sounded like someone was about to say the F word. That button got pressed a lot until the toy mysteriously stopped working one day. :chin:

Did you ever knock out a tooth as a kid (or adult, but kids seem apt at doing that lol)?

No I never knocked out a tooth but I'm having a toothache right now!

Blabby do you remember this toy? It's another one that drove me mad as a child. It was so complicated, and I never did understand how gears work.

Question: Do you know how gears work?

I have a vague understanding. I haven't thought much about that since I was a kid.

I also played with some toys similar to that as a kid.

Can you hula hoop?

Nope. Frustrated me when all the other little girls could.

Can you do a cartwheel?

I checked. It was a 51.


If you can bake and with everything available, what would you bake at this very moment?

I always have odd dreams. You likely shouldn't check the dream thread or you'll think I'm a lunatic.

Do you have any sleep disorders?

I don't think I have a sleep disorder, but I have a lot of issues with insomnia and an inability to stay asleep for more than an hour.

Same question.

According to sleep study testing I have:

Something called UAR which is pretty much the same as Apnea
Insomnia
Parasomnias (movement in sleep, acting out dreams and nightmares)
Hypnopompia and Hypnagogia (hearing conversations and voices when falling asleep / waking)
I don't reach Delta Wave (the deepest level after REM, considered "restorative" - meaning constant exhaustion)
My brain stays hyper-alert in light sleep, and doesn't shut off ^
Shorter sleep cycles from onset to REM
I can read and write in my dreams (considered very unusual), and I do a lot of lucid dreaming

I'm just a bag of tricks.

Do you remember most of your dreams?
