Biphasic: Day 4.3

I find it odd that sleeping for 3 hours leaves me more tired than sleeping for only 90 minutes. I've always been a night person, often staying up till 5am in the summer months, so perhaps this biphasic schedule works especially well for my body. I'm only getting 90 minutes of sleep for when I would be most awake and getting a fuller 3 hours sleep for when I would be more lethargic. As odd as it sounds, when 3am rolls around, it's a little difficult to force myself to sleep. The difference between my alertness and exhaustion in this single day pretty much covers the gamut of sleepiness.

I'll be going out this weekend to a cabin and spending time with friends at a wedding. It will have been a week this Saturday since I began the experiment, and I think a prime time to try being more active in a social setting. There will be some physical exertion, so I'll also be able to see how my body deals with the use of energy beyond basal uses. I hope this is not the case, but I may have to skip a nap over the weekend and add it to the core sleep. We'll see what the weekend brings, though.
