Listen to these people. Aren't you a little young to be starting the "uphill both ways" stories? I've been out of grad school two years now, during which time I was working full time, and out of all that time, there was only a three day period where I slept a grand total of about eight hours (5 1/2 the first night, which didn't leave much for the next two). Pardon me if I doubt that 3 1/2 hours' sleep is the *norm*, particularly from one who spends so much time *here*. :-)
