I woke up about 3:00 AM this morning and noticed a dense fog (it's starting to sound like the weather channel around here) outside. This is not the least bit unusual, however, since I seem to wake up in a dense fog most every morning.
How much sleep do you really need?
It is my understanding that Thomas Edison (hey, I have an idea) required only 4 hours of sleep per night, while Albert Einstein (E=mc Hammer .. or something like that) needed 12 hours to feel rested.
I'm certainly not comparing myself to Edison (the hair is similar) or Einstein (the hair was similar), but I believe that I function best somewhere in between. You see, I've tried the 4 hour pattern (heck, I'm in the 4 hour pattern) and it's not working for me. If I slept 12 hours, who would wake Cheryl up to tell her the alarm is going off?
My next step (the first is to admit you have a problem) is to stop my caffeine intake at night and to stop drinking a gallon of water before I retire (at night, not age 65). Maybe that will help.
Philip Marlowe, you are a cruel man.
