I try very hard to use words like wouldn’t, couldn’t, won’t and can’t carefully.
I almost feel like nothing “can’t” be done (ah that childlike optimism)….good for debugging and trying to figure out a problem, bad for not knowing when you’ve lost.

I realized this week that despite wanting and trying to sleep early and wake up early (by choice), I simply couldn’t do it. It’s not to say I can’t do it here and there, once or twice, but it’s to say that I can’t maintain that for a long period of time. The clock has been built within me as early as highschool, possibly earlier.

I think I should stop trying to fight it. The only reason I’m trying to fight it is for work….but you know, maybe I should just take jobs where this sort of thing isn’t an issue. I can’t change me that much….

At my previous working team and when I played WoW, this would be my schedule
Wake up at 6:45am
Leave at 7:30am
Come home and sleep at 6:30pm
Wake up and Raid (WoW0 at 9:30pm (3 hours of sleep)
Sleep at 2:00 am
Wake up at 6:45am (4.75 hours of sleep)

That was my consistent schedule for almost a year….around 8 hours of sleep, broken up into two. Not fun I tell ya….
