Operation Sleep Disorder: Day 1
Slogging through day 1 of Operation Sleep Disorder wasn’t nearly as difficult as expected. There was plenty of work to keep me busy. I must have had enough sleep carrying over from Sunday, because although my body felt weird and my eyes were bloodshot and burning, I never felt the need to pass out while at work.
My walk home was warm, but with the low humidity, my sweat level remained low. Perhaps it was my geek t-shirt that kept me cool and clammy. Once I cooled down at home, the desire to sleep overcame the desire to watch the 2nd half of The Fellowship of the Ring, and I slipped into unconsciousness before the Bridge of Khazad-dûm.
Though I can’t say that my sleep was uninterrupted, I do feel that it was enough to get me through tonight and tomorrow afternoon. In all, I got about 7 hours, rolling out of bed at 10:30PM. My foremost concern is that I may become quite tired toward the end of my shift at work since that will be the end of my entire day, and my energy will be at its lowest.
Day 2 promises to be quite interesting as my sleep cycle is sorted. I’m now awake on my normal 3rd shift hours, but my sleep time has been pushed back into 2nd shift rather than 1st, clearing the way for me to be awake while at work.
