In 2019. I went to a concert and was too wired to fall asleep afterward, plus no reservations anywhere, so I just drove back home again. About 100 miles (maybe a bit more) one way.
It was so long ago that I can’t remember. When I was in college I used to pull all-nighters with some regularity. And when I had young kids, parenthood occasionally called for all-nighters. But not any more. I need a good six to seven hours of sleep if I want to be functional the next day.
The other night, my wife Amelia had an idea that she couldn’t stop thinking about, so we stayed up all night discussing and writing about it. My advice? If you are a writer, please don’t marry another writer. 🤣
Some years ago, when a friend’s husband died. I didn’t get the message until the day before the funeral, and I had to drive all night in order to get there in time. Luckily, I was still able to do that then. I wouldn’t dare attempt it now.

About 2 weeks ago. We had a red-eye out of Key West. I have never been able to sleep on a plane.
