The generally accepted rules of sleeper bus travel have long been a mystery to many. Read on and the mysteries will be revealed...
Rule #1 is no #2.
Rule #2 see rule #1.
Rule #3 Don't fall asleep in either the front or the back lounge or you will be subject to whatever your bus mates may choose to do to you (i.e. one big burly guy once had his armpit shaved and unflattering names written on his forehead with Sharpie all because he fell asleep in the lounge.)
Rule #4 Always sleep with your feet toward the driver in case he has to stop suddenly while you're asleep and you go sliding wildly, you won't break your neck at the end of your bunk.
Rule #5 Don't sleep in the top bunk if you have to pee a lot during the night.
Rule #6 No guests on the bus. It is a very small home for up to 12 people. There is no room for extra people.
Rule #7 If it's not labeled in the fridge or on the counters its fair game.
Rule #8 Don't drink the water.
Rule #9 No sleeping with your bunk curtain open. Especially if you snore louder than the bus hitting the rumblestrips.
Rule #10 Don't ever go into a truck stop without taking your cell phone telling somebody else you've left the bus. The Oklahoma City Flying J is a lonely place at 3AM.

Awesome :) (Can you tell I have small kids? Lots of encouragement = more of what I want, in this case, posts. It's already working...)
