>As an adolescent, I remember sleeping eight-, nine-, 10-hour periods. Now if I can do two or three hours at a stretch, I feel vaguely triumphant.
Wow. So little sleep is very bad for health (mental and physical).

I think he does more than one of these stretches at a time.

I think he's saying most people his age need to pee several times a night. Reminds me of being a new-ish parent. Not something I want to revisit in a hurry!

As long as you can get right back to sleep after you're woken by pee or whatever, it's not unhealthy.
