I'd love to have the flexibility to try this.I got tired, just reading about it.

I saw a lot of complaints about that on LJ, ita. Definitely an issue with the guide, and not the Tivo itself.
I'm off to a very painful aerobics class at my sister's club. Yay? This is the price I pay for not getting a workout at the gym last night, since I showed up just before all my pals went to the bar.

But, but... I like lying in bed aimlessly for hours at a time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I do too. I like waking up slowly, I like drifting off to sleep. But the extra time...that's seductive. Still, impossible given work and krav.

Man, is it gorgeous here. Yesterday was awful, cold and rainy. Today we have orb for the first time in ages, and it's just above thirty. Lovely.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
What do you think, aurelia, are they up to the challenge?
So far they've only managed to knock some things over and pull my quilt off the wall hanger. No visible damage to the apartment or my stuff.
Right now it seems my options are 1) Argue with housing until they agree to something reasonable 2) Don't mention the cats and hope for the best (not that I'd try to hide them, but I've had a cat there for the past 10 years. I doubt anyone would question it.) 3) Look for a different summer job. None of these options appeal to me at the moment.

If I had the work-free income necessary to maintain that kind of schedule for all the regularly spaced catnaps and the corresponding extra meals, I'd just sleep 12 hours each day instead. And I'm pretty sure that would make me feel more refreshed than the odd sleep pattern could.

Hm. I guess if I was a ninja or something I could see it working. Or Batman. I bet Batman sleeps like that.

I think the point of this guy's experiment was that (individuality obviously not covered) it wouldn't. That he managed to feel better polyphasically than he did normally.

Yeah, didn't Kramer try that once? I try not to take my lifestyle tips from him, generally.
