Time to get "Enough Sleep"

And yes, I thought that concept was important enough to rate both capital letters and quotes. "Enough Sleep" for me means, what, 8 hours? We'll start with that. Sunday I'll go to bed at 11pm and get up at 7am, which is a distinct difference from going to bed at 1am and getting up at 7am, then going back to bed at 8am, after I drop the kids off at school.

I don't expect to get 8 hours on Sunday. I expect to flop around until about 1am, then go to sleep. But if I go back to bed on Monday, I'll just be prolonging the cycle. Therefore, I may be a zombie for the next few days. I may not blog regularly next week, which is not any real change, since I'm blogging irregularly now.

I have been a night owl since I was, what, in 10th grade? I will remind my gentle readers that I'm adding this to my regimen not because I think getting up early in the morning is healthy, wealthy, or wise, but because conventional wisdom demands it, and that come January 1, 2011, I can quit doing it if I want to. Well, not really. I still have to drive the kids to school. I've always kind of despised early mornings, but maybe there's some hidden benefit there that I haven't found yet. Frankly, I doubt that, but let's explore it, shall we?
