Hit the sack !!!
Kenny I stayed up most of the night studying for today's exams, and I'm really beat. As a matter of fact, I don't remember the last time I had a good night's sleep.
Carroll When you were a baby ?

Carroll Just for the record, it's been proven that if you deprive yourself of sleep, your ability to focus on mental tasks drops. In fact, not only does sleep deprivation compromise high-level thinking ability, it also is linked to hormonal changes that may cause obesity.
Kenny You don't say. Well, I think I'll take a short nap.
Carroll That's a step in the right direction. Sweet dreams.
