Day 22: 04/20

Got up around 7:15, but had a dysfunctional morning and didn't make it to my running class.

After returning equipment to school I came home and took a nap. I fell asleep around noon and slept until about 2, not making it to my afternoon class.

Went to a meeting at 3:30, then went grocery shopping.

Got home and felt anxious and stressed out. Wanted to go for a run, but it was really rainy out.

It stopped raining later at night and I ended up going for a 6 mile run around midnight. I felt really good afterwards. Wish I could take running classes at night.

Went to bed around 3.

breakdown:

• up at 7:15
• 2 hour nap in early afternoon
• not much time outside during day
• long night run
• no alcohol
• 2 cups of coffee, last around 3

Day 17: 4/15

After not being able to sleep until so late last night, I opted not to get up for my running class. I knew that I would have to choose between taking a nap and going to my 2pm class if I did.

I went back to sleep, not giving much thought to how long I would sleep and didn't wake up until noon! So much for getting on a good schedule. So frustrating!

I had breakfast and a cup of coffee and made a campsite reservation, which took MUCH longer than I anticipated. I was on hold for a very long time, and when I finally got off the phone my class had already started.

I decided to go for a run to make up for missing my running class this morning. I ran 3.5 miles and got home just in time to shower and get to the coffee shop where I was meeting my documentary group to do some planning.

I had a UFO meeting from 7-9 and then came home. I talked to Robert on the phone and watched the latest episode of Lost. It's midnight now and I'm not feeling very sleepy.

I just had a glass of wine and am in bed trying to relax. Have to get up at 7.

breakdown:

• up at noon
• 3 cups of coffee, last around 5
• ran outside in the afternoon (sunny out)
• wine around 11
• tried to sleep around midnight

Day 10: 04/08/10

My alarm started going off around 6:30, but I didn't manage to get out of bed until 7:15. I had a cup of coffee and a light breakfast and went to my running class. It was cool, but sunny out. I ran three miles, then came home ate some more and took a shower.

I debated whether or not to take a nap. I thought about working on a paper, but decided I was too sleepy to concentrate. I decided it would be okay to take a nap, but only for an hour or so. At about 10:30 I set an alarm for 12:30, assuming it would take me at least half an hour to fall asleep. I ended up sleeping until 1:15 and had a very hard time waking up. I wasn't ready to go in time to make it to my 2:00 class.

At 4:30 I picked up some equipment from school and then went to a drop-in yoga class. After that I had a quick dinner with a friend and then went to a University Film Organization meeting, which went unusually late, ending around 9:30.

I got home around 10 and worked on homework and ate. I had a hard time concentrating on my homework and kept getting distracted.

I finally decided to call it quits and go to sleep around 4.

breakdown:

• up at 7:15 (about 5 hours of sleep)
• exercise early in the morning
• late morning nap
• yoga at 5
• 2 cups of coffee, last around 2pm

Day 8: 04/06/10

I fell asleep around 3 last night. Something woke me up at about 6:30 this morning, shortly before my alarm went off. I stayed in bed until about 7, then got dressed and had a quick light breakfast before going to my running class.

I ran 5 miles and then came home, drank a protein shake, took a shower, and went back to bed. I decided not to bother setting an alarm to get up for my afternoon class, which I didn't really need to go to. I napped from about 10 to 2:30.

I didn't feel sleepy anymore after I woke up, but I felt fatigued. My muscles were sore and I didn't feel up to doing anything active. I did some homework and watched some videos and ate a lot. It seemed like no matter how much I ate I was still hungry. I went to the grocery store around 1.

Didn't feel tired until after 3. Fell asleep around 4:30.

breakdown:

• up around 7
• lots of exercise early in the morning
• long afternoon nap
• 2 cups of coffee, last around 4pm
• no alcohol

Day 3: 04/01/10

I hit snooze for a long time and didn't get out of bed until 7:15. Barely made it out the door in time to get to my running class at 8. Ran 3 miles. I had a really hard time keeping moving, maybe because I didn't sleep enough.

Came home around 9 and took a shower. Took a nap from around 10:30 to 1:30. Woke up starving, threw on clothes, had a snack and barely made it to my 2:00 class. Got out just before 5. Had a dinner meeting until about 6:30, then film club until 9. Was hungry again after that and got a vegetarian burrito from Qdoba. Just looked up the nutrition info and found out it was 1320 calories! Not worth it.

Watched a movie with people from club, then got home around midnight. It's almost 2 now and I'm feeling kind of tired. Have another 8am class tomorrow, so gotta get up early.

breakdown:

• uo at 7:15 with only about 3.5 hours of sleep
• ran 3 miles in the morning
• took a 3 hour nap late morning-early afternoon
• 3 cups of coffee, last one around 6pm
• last meal around 9:30
• attempted to sleep around 2:30
