So apparently it was a bad idea to skip my evening nap last night. I wasn’t tired when the time came around and since we started playing Drinking Jeopardy, I decided to just power through. The game was a blast, however by 1:00 a.m., I was exhausted. I only managed to stay up until 1:30, but fell asleep quite nicely!

I woke up right before my alarm again! 6:53 this time. Very interesting. I’m very groggy at the moment (8:15 a.m.) so I assume this is what I get for missing that nap last night. At least Jeopardy was amazing!

Yes! Two great sleep sessions! In the one at 6:00 p.m., I managed to dream, and dreams confirm REM sleep! Additionally, I successfully kept it down to 20 minutes, and when I awoke, felt alert and refreshed.

Later in the evening, I had had 5 beers and managed to take another good nap. I was drowsy afterwards but once I ate I felt fine. After a few more drinks, tiredness overtook me and now, as of 1:55 a.m. am going to head to bed (even though its a half hour early. From what I’ve read, this shouldn’t affect my schedule because if you’re tired, you can go to bed earlier as long as you make sure to wake up at your regular time. Thats what I’m planning on doing so lets hope it works out.
