3am – 0min
Well, what a way to start the day. Since I didn’t sleep during the last session either, that makes two in a row. Hmm… Not sure what will happen today. Will probably screw it up during this time or the 7am time. Anyway, I am extremely hungry and I knew I should have eaten something, even if it was small, but I forgot and so I think that had a lot to do with not sleeping. Right now I am having some cold barley soup, that’s a beer for those not familiar with the term. Also, I was right in the middle of watching The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, so maybe that had something to do with it also.
7am – 42min
If it wasn’t for my back up computer clock, I would have overslept. I don’t remember my timer going off at all. Right now, I feel like I need a nap. I may just try and get another nap session in. Okay, I took another nap, but I still feel kind of out of it.
11am – 32min
I made it to the drive thru of the local Whataburger with 10 minutes to spare before they stopped serving breakfast. Ordered my Saturday ritual Potato, Egg, & Cheese Taquito; added some garlic salt and picante sauce to it. Yes, I keep garlic salt in the truck Pulled into the next parking lot and proceeded to savor every bite. Once I was finished, I put the seat back and fell asleep. I didn’t have a timer, so I just let myself figure it out. I slept longer than my normal 18 minutes, but felt really good when I woke.
3pm – 26min
I had just finished my Main Street Coffee Bar regular Saturday routine and it was a little after 3pm. So, I pulled into another parking lot and fell asleep. Again, woke feeling really good.
7pm – 16min
Took me a little to fall asleep, but eventually I did… I am awake and alert.
11pm – 00min
lol… I wasn’t planning it, but I guess I just barely made it under 2hrs for the day since I didn’t sleep this time. I was getting sleepy around 9pm, but then I started working on the site more. Actually doing fun stuff and right before 11pm I download the free video capture software from CamStudio guess I can’t get any commissions from them since it is free. Anyway, you can imagine my brain was going down every avenue of adventure using this software. Then I started thinking about pod-casting to make the site even more user friendly. One of the perks of Polyphasic is after you get over the initial omg, there is no way, your mind starts to adapt and I have noticed a certain quick clarity. I mean I have always had that but Polyphasic seems to sharpen mental skills. I know it seems like it should be the opposite, but I am definitely noticing perhaps cleaner pathways to information stored in my brain.
Oh and if that wasn’t enough to keep me awake, the latest and final season of 24: Season 8 is now available to watch on my Roku, so I will be watching that… I may have to take tomorrow off just to watch that. lol…
Thus ends Day 18 of the Polyphasic Sleep Project.
Sleep well,

Lol, now that is a good spam question. I removed the url link from this person, as the site doesn’t even work. I searched and found this one liner question throughout the web listed in the comment section of other blogs. Anyway, pretty cleaver, but I do have to give them credit because “Corina” has just given me a way to find numerous blogs that actually have their comments index on google. Pretty cool.
Haha, I just discovered that Season 8 of 24 is also on Netflix now to be watched instantly… I think that we’ll make two of us watching it, although I probably won’t attack all of it at once
About your sleep: I’m thinking you might actually use that beer to your advantage. If you are not feeling sleepy, but are supposed to have a nap within 30-40min, have your beer then. It should help you fall asleep. And then remove the one you are taking between 3 and 7 so it’s easier for you to get up. (Of course, I am not advising here taking beers as a method of falling asleep, but, since you are going to have one anyway, you might as well time when to drink it )
Yes, Netflix is who I use too, I just use the Roku wireless device to connect to Netflix. I have been with Netflix for 9 years, since 2002. They have been wonderful. Now, I am mainly just using their Instant Watch. I have their Instant Watch feed on my tool bar, lol. So, I check it daily to add new series when they come out. I have already reach the 500 max on both queues. well actually I have 534 in the DVD one and 499 in the instance watch. I have promoted them every chance I get and you would think I would put them on this blog more, but I haven’t been able to nail down an affiliate program with them yet. I wanted to do that before I started using their logos and stuff, so I wouldn’t have to go back and change the coding, but it looks like one of my favorite businesses, I will not get to be apart of.
As to the beer suggestion, heck I am all for drinking beer throughout the day, but I may first try to not drink beer during that time and see what happens. hmm, maybe move the whole big meal, beer drinking, movie watching time to a different time slot, but nothing is really available. (sigh) I don’t know. I will try something…
