See, I never understood this thing to begin with--doesn't *everyone* tend to get sleepy and/or hungry after? I mean, are there legions of women who, post-coitus, have tons of excess energy to burn off? Does this explain those time when the grocery store is bizarrely crowded at ten o'clock at night?
that is to say it's more than sleepy... there's a certain inability to form words, as if all the energy you posses has been stolen...
and that's why the crowded grocery store is SO bizarre... you've got stoners, couples where he can barely walk and she's all perky, the workers after a 16 gour day who are vaguly jealous of both other groups, very strange indeed ;)
well, yeah, aside from the fact that it's hard exercise, there's endorphins that are released. i don't get who ISN'T tanked after that...unless, it's folks suffering from verybadsexsyndrome. poor bastards.
re the grocery store: duuuuuddddddes. you just try walking into a 24 hour Walmart at 1 am. shivers

24 hour mobil mart, corner of Chicago and Harlem Ave. the line between Oak Park/River Forest IL [ChicagoSuburb] Graveyard shift friday/sat/sunday all through college. Danger pay. A short woman dressed up as gene simmons/a tall man as little bo peep in leather, looking for lubricants
a certain number of brain synapses cauterized.
especially my capacity to be surprise by anything...

Exactly! Post-coital DOOM!

One time I had heartburn so bad I threw on joggers, a t-shirt and an overcoat, went to the grocery store for Tums, and drove back without really waking up. I thought it was a dream until I realized my shoes were right next to the bed and the Tums were tucked under my pillow.
