A summertime dilemma
Permalink   

Here's one problem call center agents and other folks working the night shift during the summer months. How to fall asleep in this heat?

Can you give me guys your suggestions on how get sleepy enough and stay asleep in this heat? This does not include the idea of buying and installing an airconditioning unit.

Drink lots of cold water. Or beer.

I guess cold drinks would help though, I'd rather not go for beer since it would cause one other problem, a larger belly.

If ever I would go for a beer or two, here's one tip. Don't buy one on the way home at QC. There is an ordinance wherein anyone, even of legal age, is not allowed to buy liquor from 2-8AM.

Sleep in a room where the Sun doesn't shine through. I survived Summer this way. That, and playing RO after the shift is done before going home to sleep. Exhaustion FTW.

Sleep in the nude. Give your body time to cool down before you attempt to go to sleep. Make sure your sleeping area's well ventilated.  Electric fan, check that it's angled in such a way that the air disperses the heat away from your bed.

Some people say that to be able to sleep soundly, drink a warm glass of milk.. But because of the heat.. I think that's out of the question..

Usually, I'd douse my face, arms and legs with cold water before going to sleep.. then i let the air evaporate the water from my skin for a cooling effect. :)

Drink lots of cold water before going to bed..

Sleep with the lights off..

Wear soft and cool clothing..

I didn't know that the Psycho cow is a Wagyu (the tenderly massaged and beer-fed cattle breed that produces the famous Kobe Beef)

Here you go, Cow.

Can't think of other suggestions that haven't been mentioned here.

... sleep on the floor (using a banig, of course), or on a cot? Mattresses, especially the thick ones don't let the air circulate & cool your body.

Brush with extra minty toothpaste, use mint-flavored floss, gargle with icy-cold minty mouthwash before sleeping. Slather minted lotion all over your body.

@TK: Seriously? When? Where? I have not shown my face to any of the people here yet, haven't I?

----------------------------

Try to get a summer romance, if you don't have one yet.

Just the two of us? I do not drink very often with other people. Madalas kami lang ni Papa. If you are serious...I dunno. Bahala ka, TK.

Let's invite some of the newbies and oldies. I am a social drinker. I only drink if there is company. Wahaha. Sure, I'll post the info one of this days. :)

Oh noes. You will see me! I drink with friends and relatives very, very occasionally. Twice a year, I think.

I can only infer that you drink too much, TK. Or you get very funky when intoxicated.
