Good morning all my little hibernators out there... it's time for an update.
I wish I could say I'm done with my acclimation phase. I wish I could say that I've stuck to this like glue. Here's the scoop. Monophasic sleeping is like Taco Bell. It's not healthy for you. It doesn't make you feel good. It's a hedonistic pleasure that holds only an immediate gain. And while the consequences are easily not worth the gains, it still takes will power and resolve to completely avoid the hedonistic pleasures completely. Add to that... if you are on a diet you unravel your successes when you Taco Bell binge. Monophasic sleep holds no benefits over polyphasic sleep that I am interested in. It takes more time, it breaks my schedule, it tires me, it depresses me. The only thing is, like Taco Bell, it periodically sings it's sweet, alluring song when I'm at my weakest. The penalty is great.
The loft is still a disaster. I'm going to right that this morning. More importantly, I stay stuck in what I feel like is the "almost acclimated" phase. The suggestion is that I quit and try again in a month. I have two words... f that. My goal is a complete week of NO errors.
I've decided that writing in the blog needs to be a more mandatory part of my routine to help ensure this.
I'm starting the day with coffee, oatmeal, and a grapefruit. I made a killer pork tenderloin roast with Julia yesterday, and am going to follow that up with stuffed cabbage rolls and then split pea soup... I LOVE split pea soup and never knew how friggin cheap it is to make...
Anyway... keep pulling for me everyone. The benefits to this I am 100% committed to.
