Well. I didn't really sleep. I never got past just sort of laying there. And I am tired. Not ubertired, but I feel like I could sleep. My dog, a 2y.o. black cocker spaniel, decided to interrupt early on and lay on my stomach while I was on my back. The rest of the time was giving Tuxedo (he has a white breast and white "cuffs") attention time.
I feel OK now. Today is going to be a somewhat busy day. I have to clean the car some time. Probably the dogs too (the other dog Maggie is a soft coated wheaten terrier). My wife is needing a car and I found one on autotrader.com that is an *excellent* deal for her. This is a major purchase so I want it to go right. We are not trading in our old car. I need it. But I don't want us to look like slobs when we go to look at someone elses car, as it is a private seller. It's a very nice car.
So today I am going to try a 3 hour schedule. As I've said before, I am not a believer in rigid systems to replace natural ones. I think that is how everyone got stuck on the monophasic [MP] schedule to begin with. Some uppity ruler set some rule that says everyone should go to sleep exactly at this time and wake up exactly at that time. Now, I have relatives that are dairy farmers and I am aware that some things must be done during the day, many things that will fill all the daylight hours in fact. So some of this MP stuff probably came around with domestication of aminals or farming. So I don't really blame anyone to begin with. But society sure leads us to believe alot of things are good for us that aren't nowadays, doesn't it?
I am just realizing this is actually my first blog. After being one of the first perhaps 10000 people to have a web site on the internet (maybe 2000) I am probably one of the last to publish a blog. Heh, right now I don't even have a web site functioning. Another thing to do with my time.

Hey Opus,
Good to see your transition is going well. I'm set on doing the dymaxion schedule now - it's going to be interesting - I'm at 27 hours now with 2 hours sleep and feeling really good on it.
By the way, don't be disheartened if you can't sleep at nap times - that's happened to me before so I know how frustrating it can be, but all it really means is you'll be more sleep deprived which is a good thing - the more deprived of sleep you are, the quicker the transition will take place and the sooner you'll start feeling great.
