The longest you've ever slept at one time?

... I'm a guy who loves to sleep. I love to sleep in. I like to sleep a lot. I don't have any problem sleeping my day away. All things sleep.

But on the flip side I'm working 2 jobs right now while I'm not in school. 1- to pay some bills and 2-to save up for when I go back. I work an overnight job, and from there go straight to a day job. So some nights I'm working like from 7 P.M. til 1 P.M. the next day.

So I was a lil tired when I got home yesterday at 4 P.M. I was just gonna take a nap until I was gonna go out and get some drinks with mah buds later that night... Scratch that, I slept for 15 hours instead. I woke up at 7 this mornin... that's new for even me...

So what the longest you've slept at one time. I mean like continuously? I mean maybe you had to wake up in between to go to the bathroom or get some water, but what's the longest you've slept in on time?

ZZZZZZZ...Huh? Sleep???
Well, to me, it combines the best of two worlds.
I get to be unconscious and asleep at the same time.
Now, I'm hittin' the snooze button.
Don't bother wakin' me up til Thursday.

I think mine was about 18-19 hours after New Years 2005.

Went out with friends and hit up about 6 different bars/parties that night. We went to one last party around about 4 am and there were about 10 of us who just kept drinking and kept staying up. The last bar we were at the night prior opened back up at 9 am, so we went back for Bloody Marys to kickstart our day. Finally took a cab home across town at about noon, and didn't wake up until about 7am the next morning

best night ever

12 hours.

I'm a 6-8 hr type of guy.

I lived in South Bend at the time. Had the ABC National in Huntsville, AL. Thursday Night after a night of Bowling, I went home to start packing for my drive to there. Slept for maybe 2hrs. I had planned my trip to stop through Evansville to get measured for my tux for a friends wedding, and then make it to Nashville to meet up an old college roommate until my friends from South Bend met up with there in Nashville. The Drive is 5 hours to Evansville from South Bend. I got his requirements done. He wanted to go out for drinks after he was done with work. Bahama Mamas! Then he wanted me to go out of my way to meet see his son. I left Evansville around 10pmcst and showed up in Nashville about 1pm est. Waited for my friend to get off work there. Then went to an all-night bar and started drinking beers again at 3pm. Stomach upset. We drove to the meeting point with my South Bend friends. We showed up in Huntsville about 8am in the morning. But when we met up, I told a friend to drive. I don't sleep well in cars, so I was in and out for about 1 to 2 hrs. Still stomach sick went to played Golf on a flooded Golf Course checked into the hotel. Had Red Lobster for dinner. Almost fell asleep driving from there to the hotel at the wheel. One guy said he had to pick up our friend from the airport, then they were going to the stadium. I told them to pick me up on the way to the stadium. Well I went out on a couch in my hotel room (formerly an apt complex) at 8pm watching the NCAA tourney, and the next thing I knew it was 8am in the morning.

I had the worst tournament ever in my career also. yikes! Left my prise Bears jacket there. And had to take at least the 3rd phone call to the hotel staff on where to find it. Geez!

Ive slept as long as 10 hours straight before.
but that was after staying up for almost 3 straight days.
I try to only sleep 3-6 hours a day.

When I was in my late teens and early 20's I could sleep for 10 hours plus

Now, in my early 30's, I sleep 3-5 hours and am good to go. The key is my 15 minute daily power nap. Like clockwork. I have not set my alarm in over 5 years.
