We’re both still in the adaptation phase of the Everyman polyphasic sleep cycles, but today was fairly successful for me. I’ve learned that fruit is a wonderful thing (meals right after naps to help wake me up). I’ve learned to try to calm my activity levels for a few minutes before naps. And I’ve seen, both firsthand, and through Cecily, that failure is always right around the corner. 

We’ve both had periods during the day when we’re beyond tired, can’t stay awake through a single TV episode, and alarms are useless. But we’ve also seen how much extra time we get if we do it right. 

I’m worried about tomorrow. First day back at work after the long weekend, and I’m going to lose my 1pm nap. I haven’t decided whether I’ll stick to the schedule minus that nap, or if I’ll cave and make my core sleep extra long. (i.e. 2am-9:30am instead of 2am-5am, then 9am-9:30am). We’ll see!
