Mucho dormir or Mucha dormir?

Sí, voy a dormir mucha este sábado.

I think much or a lot is describing the sleep that I will be getting on Saturday. So it's "mucha" because I'm female.

Is my reasoning sound? Gracias.

Infinitives are masculine and there will be much sleeping, rather than much of you, so it is mucho.

Masculine and singular. - lazarus1907, Dec 17, 2010

HI bandit, mucho agrees in gender only when it is an adjective.

Here it functions as an adverbwink

dormir mucho (both genders)

mucha leche, mucho pan...(adjectives)
