My mind has basically adjusted to this new schedule. I live in 4 hours blocks now, rather than day/night. The night blocks seem to last a lot longer than the day ones, mostly because its dark and everyone else is asleep. Now that I have all this time, it's hard to remember those days when I had such little time to do "activities."
My body hasn't adjusted quite yet. I had a string of 3 straight deep sleeps, but no dreams (as far as I can remember), and I lost the streak on my previous nap. After each of the 3 deep naps, I felt really tired for 30 min after, then fine after that. However, I've been falling asleep much faster than I had before, breathing really slowly and deeply at the beginning of each nap helps a lot.
I've been eating a bit more; I stocked up on chips and snacks for those late nights. However, I'm not craving anything weird, or eating ridiculous amounts.
Speaking of Russell, he came back after a party for his nap and made me wake him up. Upon waking him up (which took a bit of effort), he ran out of our room and disappeared for a good ten to fifteen minutes. I got a little bit worried, so I looked for him. He was taking a shower (random?), then he came back, said "Good luck waking me up!" and went back to sleep. For the next 6 hours. I couldn't wake him up, even when I was yelling at him. After he finally woke up, he had no recollection of showering (he thought I was making it up). To his credit, he's not giving up, and has jumped right back into the schedule. Props.
starting to get really hungry,
