Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I have a lot of difficulty sleeping. I’m awake all the time. So I am your fellow insomniac! I pray that your trip goes well
Thanks prayers are greatly appreciated. Hoping you get sleep soon as well.
If I believed in reincarnation I'd come back as a cat. Party all night, sleep all day and eat. I'm Aries and a lot like a crazy cat. My dad is the same. He's next door to me and I see his light all during the night. His mom was the same. I remember waking up late when I stayed with her and she would either be reading Harlequin romance novels or playing cards with herself. I'm weird I sleep much better during the day. I just got out of bed, ate mango and in the recliner. If I can't sleep in one I'll be out in the other quickly.
It's a short trip to the coast. A family member has a house and we go about once a month. It's not on the beach but we get the salt air and chilling with family.
I saw some people commenting yesterday or day before when you can't sleep it's a time to be with God and sing. Something like that can't remember exactly, be at peace with him. Thought I'd try chatting. If my hubby wakes and hears me singing he might think I've finally cracked 🤣
That is so weird because my mom is awake right now. She actually stays up longer than I do. I walk to the house to go to the restroom, and she’s up on her computer. The lights on in the living room almost all night long. Funny how that is.
Edit: also, I’m jealous enjoy the ocean air. If you get a chance go to the beach, tell me how beautiful it is.
That is freaky. I guess more people live near family than we realize. It doesn't matter how much sleep my dad misses he'll be up early. Not me, I gotta have sleep to function! I'm like the Eyore tshirts, don't come near me. (I know Disney is bad but I relate to Eyore) My husband knows not to talk to me when I'm like that. About a year ago when I got up for bathroom and water around 6 or 7 he started saying morning like he probably does at work. I said you should know after 30+ years you get hey love you and that's it. I'm back to bed.
I can tell you with out going. North Carolina beaches are probably the best on the east coast except for Florida. Unfortunately the secrets been out. Beach rentals are ridiculous! You have ordinary working class people but there's big money there also. I've heard several music artists or celebrities mention they visit NC beaches or have a house. Folly Beach and Charleston SC is the same. I'd move to Charleston if I could. Further south and warmer in the winter.
We won't go to the beach side until September. The crowds drop drastically after Labor Day. I had planned to get on the beach a few hours some this summer. Haven't been up to that yet after being sick. Plus I don't want get scorched. I'm usually tanned by May but not this year. I'm lily white but tan good.
Have a great weekend and get some sleep fren🐸🙂
There's lots of history there.

Eeyore is created by A.A. Milne, just rented by Disney, so I'd say you're perfectly cool. I always related to him, myself, and in the books he complains way too much, although he's still right much more frequently than the others lol
