Welcome to the All-Night Inn, my online shrine to the Greek god, Hypnos!
February 18, 2009... Sleep research is going to take me quite some time to accomplish. While I am not trying to whip out a fucking thousand page thesis on sleep, I am trying to gather simple information to help the random visitor. Using multiple sources to gather my info isn't an overnight task, especially while trying to wrangle a household, a kid, and a job. I am trying my best! =)
Hypnos: "Let me tell you a *yawn* bedtime story..."
Compare to:
Thanatos: "LET ME TELL YOU A BEDTIME STORY..." >=)
February 11, 2009... Feel free to take a look around. I haven't added any more content, but I will soon. I have changed the look and gotten rid of the trendy narrow-page appearance. I've added more graphics and changed up the offering page. My email is now timetosnooze@gmail.com, and I will no longer be checking "hypnoslikesmexicanfood@lycos.com". The old page is now utterly defunct, and in 60 days I will delete my old account at Angelfire. *sniff sniff* Hmm, something seems to be missing. That's right: NO ADS. *gasp* *shock*! =D It's also time for a new poll. For 30 days, it seems that of 4 people that voted (man that'll kill my bandwidth lol), 100% of the visitors said they get only 5 - 7 hours of sleep each night. February 8, 2009... I will be in the process of changing web providers, so I will not be making additions to this site. The next provider will add more elbow room (MORE THAN 20 FAILBYTES). This doesn't mean I've stopped working on the shrine... as soon as everything has been moved, I will continue adding more content. Ta-ta for now! February 5, 2009... I have not vanished! I have been taking time out working on the Sleep page. Nothing is up yet, but I have been doing some research so that I can compile everything. In the meantime, I found an old article on sleep: CBS News: The Science of Sleep. It's a fact that in modern times, a sleep-deprived culture is growing, and it's affecting more and more people everyday. This is starting to sound like a vicious cycle of stress causing sleep disorders, and sleep disorders causing even more stress. TAKE MORE NAPS ALREADY, JEEZ!! And here is a LOLcat picture for you:
January 20, 2009... Meh. Angelcrap gives only 20 fail MB of space, and I'm up to 12 - 13 right now. I might have to move everything to another provider because there's so much I want to add. On the bright side, I found a TON of new pictures to the Gallery. I am also taking notes on Sleep, so that I will add extensive info. Yeah, 20 MB won't cut it. =\ January 19, 2009... HA HA HA! I found an old game I played online last year. Le Manoir is a point-and-click adventure game in French. Language is no barrier, as the game is very simple... you are a traveler who has stopped by a country-side hotel to crash for the night. However, things don't go entirely as planned, as the other guests become extremely noisy, and interrupt your nighttime interlude. It's a cute, light-hearted game I think you'll enjoy. Otherwise, I added a few more projects to Crafty, mostly under the Hygiene section. I'm going to bed now... nighty-night! January 18, 2009... I'm so fucking happy I could shit! I got off of work early today. Great start! I make it home before the lunch rush so I could spend time with my loved ones. Next thing I know, I overheard a conversation between the property manager and a potential new tenant, and I learn that my noisy-ass retardo neighbors ARE MOVING OUT. Woohoo!! Seriously, they're insane... partying, fighting, and carrying on for all hours, getting in trouble with gangs, damaging the property, harassing the other tenants... good riddance! At last, I may sleep in peace! Did some decent work on the shrine, just smoothing out the coding and editing errors. I added a few new recipes and projects to Crafty, added more details and meditations to Symbiosis, added a Coldplay song to Honoring, a few new images to the Gallery, and I found a Celebration for the Marriage of Hypnos and Pasithea. I didn't realize how much I'd done, now that I think about it. It's been a pretty busy day! Last but not least: TO HELL WITH THE EMBEDDED FONT. After some research... I learned that Microsoft has proprietary rights over source for embedded font coding, which only works on IE v4.0 or higher. I use Firefox, because IE just pisses me off. I hope someone, somewhere, fights this Sheriff-of-Rottingham (read: "rat-bastard") and develops embedded-font source that's friendly to all, or most browsers. Please? =(
January 17, 2009... Just a quick tidbit before bedtime... I have added some tasty recipes in the Crafty page. I have also added a couple of starter meditations to the Symbiosis page. I intended to add more, but it's time for me to hit the sack. Nighty-night! -_- Zzzzzzzzzz January 16, 2009... After taking a brief hiatus from working up a storm on the shrine, I have finally returned with more projects for the Crafty page. I've added projects for bath and more. Well, I'm not just going to tell you... you will have to see for yourself! I have the Symbiosis page up and running. Right now it only contains basic information on working with Hypnos, nothing very extensive. I will add meditations to this page later. January 9, 2009... I am really tired. It's almost midnight, and if I don't go to sleep soon, I swear Hypnos will come down here and murder me. >_> I added several more tisane recipes in "Crafty", for sleep, relaxation, and a few intriguing ones that help with nightmares and night sweats! Last item for today, the "Hypnos" page is up, and goes into brief detail about the god. January 7, 2009... Back for more. I had a strange, sleepy day... kept waking up several times in the middle of the night because the young one was up misbehaving when he should be IN BED. Also, my lovable neighbors are loud, obnoxious and rude... and apparently are involved in a relationship that includes the boyfriend kicking open her door at 2AM (did I mention I live in an apt., and her front door is on the other side of my bedroom wall? Yeah...). Through intermittent sleep, I take a nice nap well into the day. It's been strange. Otherwise, I got up the Crafty page. I added only a few recipes so far, but more will come. I am trying to think of what to write for the Hypnos page... I have a few ideas, but I want to make it sound good, not retarded. And sometimes I hate HTML. Tried adding a link to the "All-Night Inn" banner to bring the user back to this front page, but Angelbastard (sorry, I meant Angelfire) decided to be cute and make the banner VANISH ENTIRELY. Well, so much for that. I will add a poll once a month to the Accommodations bar on the home page. It's too much a pain in the ass to add it to each and every page. This month's question, "How much sleep on average do you get each night?" Just some neat content for the page, and perhaps the info will be helpful for future content in the shrine. Hooray for Hypnos! =D January 6, 2009... Phew! I'm glad to have some experience with HTML... no luck yet with the neato embedded font, but I have all of the links working! But many of the pages don't yet have content HAHAHA! I did add an original devotional to Honoring, I added links to Friends, and dumped an assload of pictures into my brand-spanking new Gallery! I frequently hunt the interwebz for new pictures of Hypnos appearing in classical art. Some day, when I get off of my lazy ass, I will post my own original pictures. Hee hee! I am so happy. Even though the other pages don't have any content, I typed different weird stuff in each one. Check it out, if you don't have anything better to do =P January 5, 2009... Hee hee! I got the random quote generator to work. PAIN IN THE ASS. But I am now happified. I added a new page to the shrine: Honoring. It's a collection of songs, hymns, and other "hooray-for-Hypnos!" things I found here and there. And last item for today, I added the "About the Inn" page under "Accommodations". Oh, check this shit out:
January 4, 2009... Yo! I have like, ZERO content. Orly? YA RLY. I had all day to add content, but no... I spent 5 hours trying to get an embedded font to work (it didn't). I fail so hard. I'm sorry Hypnos. Don't beat me in the face for protection money, I will get the font to work somehow =P E-Mail Me
