Tired… but why?

I tried to hit the reset button this weekend. I had a great jam session with the band Sunday, and my classes on Friday and Saturday showed promise to be some of the better classes I’ve had at RPI (a welcome relief). Also, I got a good amount of sleep Saturday night and again last night when I went to bed at 8:30pm. Yet still, I feel dead this morning.

I’ve decided to improve my diet a bit. The past month or two has had me eating really really poorly (cheddar bratwurst, kielbasa, pork, limited veggies, etc). Today my lunch is significantly improved with some pineapple for a morning snack and a chicken rice dish with a side of brussel sprouts for lunch.

Hopefully the improved foods and more established sleeping hours will improve my energy levels. I’d like to enter the age of 27* in overdrive.

*occasionally I read Craigslist personals. Lately there’s been a strange trend of the ages of people being switched to 27. This is horribly unfortunate if you are actually at the cusp of 27 trying to find people of similar age. Try it out! go to any craigslist place in the country and check the ‘women seeking men’ section. the few sites I checked all had at least 30-40% of people were twenty seven. But then, if you open some of those, they will describe people who are definitely different ages. I presume it’s some sort of bug or spam, but it’s interesting nonetheless.

    Maybe you had too much sleep on Sunday-Monday morning? I always feel sluggish when I have slept too much.

    Wasn’t there a previous thread about 3 hr intervals? 6 is ok, 8 is bad, 9 is good… something like that. How many hours did you actually get, and how far was it from a number divisible by 3?

    I slept for 9 and a half hours last night. So it’s not too far from the a number divisible by 3. My theory is that I was just destroyed from school and work and what my body really needs is a 15 hour reboot.

    You know what I think the problem is. Not Enough Mayonaise. I’m telling you thats the problem. I had a rough couple of days and on sunday I had two (2) egg salad sandwiches with tons of Mayo in it. I slept great, woke up on monday morning rip roaring and redy to go. Try slopping some of the delicious Emulsion on whatever your eating and call me in the morning.

    I hate to sound like my wife here, but I read in Reader’s Digest that if you do not keep the same sleep schedule during the weekend as you do during the week, that Monday morning will bring you nothing but pain.

    Also, I would like to point out, that I will not be hearing the end of this from Ruth as soon as she reads it. I did it solely for your wellbeing, Mike D!

    In England the 6th food group is Mayonnaise. They basically put it in everything. I can tell you one thing….It does NOT make most people sleep better. In fact, I’m pretty sure the fact mayo is in everything is why England smells.
