Last night, I went to bed at 10, neglecting my post that I put up at midnight, ignoring the fact that my company site states that we're available until 11 PM, and snubbing the idea that 10 is wayyy too early for someone my age to be going to sleep.
I slept until 7 and woke up completely refreshed. I had completely forgotten how nice it was to sleep sometimes!
My usual schedule involves me getting about 4-6 hours of sleep. I try to take a 20-minute power nap during the day sometimes, but that doesn't quite get me to 100% all of the time. A cocktail of soda, caffeine mints, and caffeinated gum allow me to stay awake to do all of the things that I need to do on a daily basis, both on a personal level and on a professional one.
It used to be the case, a few months back, that every few weeks I'd just sleep from 7 PM to 7 AM one day and be completely back to normal, but it's gotten busy and stressful enough that I haven't been willing to do that. I might start that again – it's probably a good idea.
So, yay for sleep!
On another note, I want you to check out a new website. Well, it's not a new one, but it's a revamped one that needed a special ingredient. Originally, it was just the amusing IM conversations of two of my favorite bitches. Now, however, they have added me to their mix. Our IM conversations will be posted for the world to marvel at our wit, erudition, crudeness, and mundane existences. Go check it out: These Walls Have Ears. Put it on your feedreader, and once Britt has internet again, we'll be back in business. The business of hilarity, of course.
