New Year's Resolution

Well, I've decided I need to resurrect this blog.

No post since July? That's horrible! I need to use this blog for it's original purpose again though.

Since I started my new job in October, I haven't been polyphasic. I was starting to fall off the wagon towards the end of my old job, but the change of environment and everything just worked as a catalyst to fully quit. And I hate it. I have so much less time, I'm more tired than I was while polyphasic, it just sucks.

Enter New Year's Resolutions.

1) Quit chewing my nails. Working on it. It's about time I kicked this nasty habit. So if you read this (which is no one) and you see me chewing my nails, slap me.

2) Get to the gym more. I've not been making it to the pool as often as I'd like. So I'm going to try to force myself into swimming twice a day during the week, before and after work. Step one is getting a pool pass... working on that this week.

3) Get back into Polyphasic sleep.
This will be hard. Winter here is cold (normally, it's only -20C today, which is quite nice) which makes it so I can not sleep in my car. This restricts my potential sleep locations quite a bit. Also, since I'm at a new job, I need to organize a nap location. I'll be discussing it with my bosses sometime this week. A nice side effect is my parents house isn't too far from work, but then I have to see my parents, which is an undesirable outcome. Also, an 8 hour stretch is just too long to go without a nap, if you are trying to be polyphasic.

This will mean setting up a schedule that works with my body, and work schedule, and pool swim times. This should be easier now that I'm not taking a class as well (one of the excuses I used in the fall for falling off the bandwagon. I had commitments on Tuesday from 8am-7pm, which made finding time to nap very difficult). I'll sit down and fiddle with the numbers sometime this week, shooting to start the transition next week. Hopefully it will go as smooth as my first transition.

I'll hopefully be keeping this blog more updated. It's a good item on my "TODO" list to keep me awake too.

Until next post!
