Wilma came and went.  I’m heading to New York this week to do some bidness, and I think i’m more likely to see the bitch there than I did here.  Barely got rain.  Oh boy was it beautiful today though, in the 60s, the first sign of the return of tolerable weather.  57 now and I have the windows open.

Anyway, bloody hell do I have a lot on my plate right now.  There’s my job, which is huge in time consumption for the next few months (we all know those cycles on a project), FAZR, extracurriculars, some self learning, travel, and so on.  No personal life to speak of, but cest la vie.

Couple of notes in that vein:  I’m looking at trying a new sleep thing.  Haven’t figured out exactly what yet.  There’s this, which has been around a long time even if “sleephacking” is the current blog juice.  The allure of uberman sleep is tempting, but even if I could physically handle polyphasic sleep (on the 4/20 schedule anyway) I don’t think it’s fitting to anyone’s lifestyle.  I dont’ even do much in my non-work life and I can point out places where the 20 minute nap will hose me.  I could easily do the 28 hour day, I came fairly close to it as a matter of fact back in my brief college stint when I was a restaraunt manager, worked 6 days, and could mold my schedule.  However, these days, probably not so much.  Actually, I bet I could get my boss to let me do it but in terms of the rest of my life, time with my son, etc, probably not.  The most reasonable is based on this thing with the 90 minute sleep cycle (mine seems to be closer to 70ish though) biphasic sleep schedule.  I’ve done afternoon naps in the past and there’s no better way to be refreshed, even on a short sleep night.  So I’m going ot look at about 3 hours of night sleep and 90 minute afternoon naps, giving me hopefully two distinct blocks of kickass productive time daily.  We’ll see how that goes.  I’m so energy-drained daily as it is, I need to do something.  I’m hoping a change in diet and exercise, plus a modified sleep schedule, will help me out.

Anyway, I’m trying to catch up on blog reading now, haven’t even opened RSSBandit since VSLive, and when I launched it this weekend I had like 4000 unread things..eek.  I need to get back on GTD a little more hard core, do a time audit, maybe cut the bottom 10% of my distractions.  Even then I won’t have time for everything I want to do.  Jeez.  Did you ever wish you could be one of those people content to just watch TV or play video games or go out drinking every night and just get by and not strive to do more?  Life would be easier that’s for sure.
