Okay so I do know many people actual like sleeping. The day has made them tired and their body is screaming at them to just stop and rest. I understand the biological need of it.
But what it.....?
What if sleeping was optional? I could petty much guaranty that I would be a part of the group opting out.
It might sound weird but it seems like such a waste of time. I could be doing something better in all the time that gets used up in sleep.
Plus all that time is just ....not even a part of our memory. It's just gone.
Does anyone else feel like this? Or is this just me?

Well I have a lot of interests....painting, reading, writing, crafting, playing the guitar, watching documentaries, stitching, embroidery and other surface ornamentation, of-late I have been developing a interest in sculpting, ...things like these.
Some of them are time consuming interests.
Plus there is a'ways the option to learn something new.

@maezee @ms1864 Just think how many extra books a person could read in all that "wasted" time! (I tend to read a novel length book each day as it is. If I had another four or five hours a day, I could read almost an entire extra novel!)
You never know, some people might choose to use that time to play on myLot, too!

I've never thought that sleep was a waste of time, but I am really not one who should comment about sleeping or not sleeping, Manisha...
I tend to sleep as little as I can get away with, myself. *shrug!* (I generally get about four to five hours of sleep each day.) Of course, that sleep is not all gotten at one time. I take my sleep in cat naps lasting from 30 minutes to an hour each.
If I had a choice, I wouldn't bother to sleep, either. I'd spend the "extra" time reading.
Were you aware that food equals sleep, in the short term?
