Not Enough Sleep.

[swestrup]

I think I got about 6 1/2 hours sleep last night, and its clearly not enough. I'm finding it rather difficult to keep myself focussed.

If it is caused by insomnia, I am gonna give you my personal trick which I am planning on using on myself next time insomnia afflicts me: Plan 9 from Outer Space, by Ed Wood. And it is natural, as compared with sleeping pills... ;-)

[swestrup]

Yeah, I have insomnia from time to time. This time around though it was caused by trying to get up at 5:00 am when just two days earlier I was getting up at 1:00 pm.

I would love to see Plan 9 though, since I never have.

I think there's just something wrong with today. I got 8 hours sleep last night, and it's as if I got none. This morning, when dealing with with a water glass, cereal bowl, and water pitcher, I managed to pour the water into the cereal bowl. At least I didn't end up putting cereal in the water glass.

That was me.

I had a experience this morning. I got in line at the Networking meeting to get my fourth cup of coffee, only to discover I had left my cup back on my table. I was sorely tempted to just lay back with my head under the spigot.

Sleep is a highly over-rated commodity. It steals away the hours of my days. So, I've taken to taking naps when the urge strikes me - especially on the long commutes to and from work.

[swestrup]

Alas, I cannot nap. If I have a nap when I'm short of sleep, I wake up feeling worse than before, as indeed happened yesterday when I was forced to try it.

The sleep of the future?

Imagine the harmonic motion you could get on this!

Ah yes, I saw kinra's post about this earlier today. I kind of want one, but then I'd need floating end tables and stuff too.
