Day 1: Trepidation

I sat back and watched the world go to sleep, and knew that tonight I would not be joining them.

Friday morning started at 6:25am which gave be about 7 hours of sleep for my last full night's sleep. I was feeling a little excited and freaked out before going to bed and that didn't change by the morning. I was hoping that I would settle into the idea of basically not sleeping, but I know that's not going to happen until after I'm physically adjusted.

I did the naps through the day to get a feel for it more than anything else. I wasn't really able to sleep during those times, nor did I need to. Today I worked, did homework (done!), did the braindump, and the other usual plans of a Friday night, plus I played Setters of Catan with a group of Cats until nearly 2am. It wasn't until about this 2am nap that I started missing being able to sleep. It hasn't gotten any better of course, and I was just barely able to pull myself out of bed at 6:25. I feel like the degree to which my willpower is wilting should merit some interest for its strangeness, but I can't muster up enough willpower to care :P.

I guess the way I'm counting days now is that they start at 6:30. I'll need a frame of reference since the whole divider between the days (which was my 8 hours of sleep) is now gone. I was finally able to find a decent alarm for my blackberry, so now I don't have to worry about my laptop freezing or running out of battery or being too big to have, or sleeping through the Blackberry's puny default alarm clock.

I think I should read more out of Puredoxyk's book today and see what treacherous hazards I have coming up.
