As crazy as it may sound I’m fairly sure I’ve just done so. I decided to have a nap – WHILE ALREADY ASLEEP.
I was listening to some music last night, and the last thing I remember I was half-way through track 6 of an album and then that was it. I assume I fell asleep. (By the way that would confirm the advice of many that I’ve been foolish to ignore: distract yourself from fatigue, keep moving, etc.) But my mp3 player was paused at the start of track 9! Can’t have been an accident as a result of pressing a random button as I rolled over; the keypad was locked.
However, it seems too much of a coincidence that, had I kept listening to the album continously as I’d intended to – without falling asleep – it would have been naptime at the start of track 9. My conclusion is that, despite already being asleep, I decided that it was time for a nap at that point. Interesting, I thought.
Alas, I don’t know if I was capable of setting alarms while already in (probably) deep sleep, but if I did I slept right through them. But that wasn’t really the point of this post. Actually, looking through the records of when my alarm track was last played, it seems that I probably did set my alarm and slept through it. Ouch, my ears!! although I don’t remember a thing, if my alarm track had indeed been playing it can’tve done my ears any good (I relied much on volume for the alarm to work.)
As mentioned at some point before, as of tonight I shouldn’t have any excuses not to stick to the aforeproposed (probably not a word but who cares) schedule so the posts from now on will actually mean something, whether I fail horribly or not.
I technically call this the end of day 0, now, of my adaptation ( in the light of my 5-hour sleepfest last night) as I’ve been up 21 hours. I hope I’m both making sense and not defying any conventions for naming days, but day 1 starts when I’ve already been up 24 hours, etc.
