To give you a quick summary of how my second week of the sleep schedule went, I have collected the following data: Day - Core Sleep - Nap Total Day 8 (4/15/08) - 5 hrs - 1.25 hrs Day 9 (4/16/08) ...
It has been quite a while since my last blog entry, and for that I apologize. But in the mean time, I have been hard at work on two business trips - one to DC and one to Denver - both of which fully utilized (and depended on) the sleep discipline ...
I hate wasting time, and I hate not falling asleep when I want to. I'd like to believe I'm in control of my body. I can generally move the muscles I intend to, I can usually silence my belches, and I never rarely soil myself anymore, but every ...
Building a Sleep Discipline schedule can be easy and fun. It involves balancing many factors including the amount of extra time you would like to have, how many naps you can fit in per day, how strict you expect to be with the schedule, and how much sleep deprivation you're ...
So after a very busy Monday and Tuesday at work, there was a lull in the action today. I successfully made my first nap at the target time, however because today was a bit slower and I didn't specify a length constraint of my naps, I convince myself to continue sleeping ...

Woke up at 7:00 am after 5.5 hrs of sleep. Took my first nap on time (11:30 - 12:00), but had to delay my second as I was busy until 6:30. I went to my parents hous for dinner and lay down for my second nap at 6:50 p.m. after being told I would ...
Still having a slight snoozing problem. I set my alarm for 6:10, as I went to bed a tad after 3:00 am, and again didn't get out of bed until 6:45. On the positive side, it took me much less time to become alert and awake after I got up ...
