If you’re female and feeling sleep deprived, you’re in good company. There have been a few articles written of late discussing this topic as well as some suggestions as to how to combat it: The Huffington Post’s Sleep Challenge 2010; Naomi Wolf’s “Sleep is a Feminist Issue;” Lisa Belkin’s “Why Woman Don’t Get Enough Sleep;” and this Times Online article, written by Professor Jim Horne, that explains how women need 20 more minutes of sleep than men, but aren’t getting it. What are your thoughts? Is society demanding that we give up our zz’s? Or are women doing this to themselves?

In her spare time she bakes copious amounts of yummy, not-so-good-for-you food; reminisces about how she used to have lots of spare time for reading; & does her best to keep her 3-year old, tiny-dictator-of-a-son away from certain danger.
