Day 4 - Feeling pretty good
I just woke from my 12:30 nap a little while ago and I'm feeling quite good. The MP3 plan is working very well. I find myself going to sleep faster to the static, and waking up in a pretty good mood. Thanks Placebo!
Okay, I wrote the above about 60 minutes ago and about 10 minutes later I had started to fade already. Still an improvement over previous days, but I'm not staying awake easily at night yet. At this point I'm planning to go back for a second nap at 2:30 so that I can hopefully avoid another over-sleep.
One of the interesting things about this schedule is how quickly you can get overwhelmed by tiredness. People have described it as "hitting a wall" and it's a very good analogy... You can be going along nicely and then all the sudden you just cease to function properly. I can tell that I'll have to be very careful when I start driving again to avoid the 30 minutes before a nap whenever possible.
