Thinking

Successfully woke up at 0500 with an alarm. I almost convinced myself to go back to sleep, but yesterday was a solid day (except for the extreme tiredness around 1730) and that convinced self-care me to at least try staying up.

I know from experience either I oversleep and my sleep schedule drifts or I wake up a bit drowsy and have to wait a bit to find out if I'm tired.

More thinking when I get to work.

More Thinking

So, I'm feeling a bit tired, but I haven't had coffee yet which may give me the boost I need to get my ten pomodoros. I am not so tired that I have no self-control, however. Overall, still happy I woke up at 0500. Hopefully, the fatigue today is just a consequence of being short on sleep yesterday. I'll be going to bed at 2100 everyday, and so hope to train my body to get an efficient 8 hours of sleep per day.

Potentially, I'll want to be in bed as early as 2045, to give my body the time it needs to fall asleep.

I'll play with it. The important thing is to wake up at 0500 everyday. Even at Quakecon (though there it'll be two hours later so I'll make it 0700).

At some point, I'm going to want to insert climbing back into my daily schedule. I momentarily considered it this morning, but I didn't want to be exhausted at work (especially since I'm catching up from my lack of productivity last week).

I'm thinking I'll try to go both Saturday and Sunday. After Quakecon, I'll try to reinsert it into my work days. I think ideally, to make my mornings consistent everyday, I'd like to get to the climbing gym everyday. Not necessarily climb everyday, mind you, but definitely get there, and maybe do my stretches that I should do everyday.
