Thinking

So, last weekend, to work around the wife's ideal coffee schedule, I took a nap early at 1100. Both days. And both days the nap was glorious. On Monday, the nap wasn't anything notable, and on Tuesday it was bad, so yesterday I tried 1100 again. It was again amazing.

I believe that 1100 is a better nap time. I think it also leads naturally to me being tired earlier in the day, which should further help stabilize my sleep. So, 1100 naps from now on. My energy levels yesterday were considerably better than the day before, even with the poor sleep. Though I will possibly be paying for that poor sleep today. We shall see.

Today is a day full of meetings, and as such I will practice my flexibility, skip the gym, stretch at work, and try to get a few pomodoros of work in before the endless day of meetings.

I had two weird dreams last night. The first one was a nightmare involving Evil Dead-esque shenanigans. The second one was a mundane watching TV with family dream, but various things about it didn't make sense. I don't really have much more to say about either.

Time to go to work.
