I think that's kinda the point, that if you're tossing a lot in your sleep, you're not getting deep sleep, maybe?
You have a point.
eh, I'm not a good sleeper.
I envy my husband. Sleeping is his superpower.
I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

Sleep Cycle on the iPhone is similar to Electric Sleep, sounds like. It gives me a little depth of sleep vs time graph, which I like.

Yeah, my problem with the sleep is that if I put it on one setting, I'd have to believe I'm thrashing about all night and getting like, three hours sleep. But if I put it on the other setting it say I get ALL the sleep, when I know I've woken up in the night. So I haven't been using it for that, lately. Of course, mostly it's just been depressing me with how little I walk during the week. (weekends I'm usually good, unless it's a super lazy "I slept in late and didn't get dressed until 3pm and maybe didn't leave the house" sort of thig)

Yeah, my work from home days do a number on my stats.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What?? My boss's old job had a rule that you couldn't take a bunch of Fridays off. That seems so crazy! Have other people heard of such a thing?

I suppose if there are tasks that tend to fall on Friday it could be problematic. A few years ago my bosses let me burn off a huge amount of comp time by not working Fridays in the summer unless something urgently needed to be done.

I haven't seen a rule, but I've been places where it was discouraged to take your vacation time that way. I think it basically comes down to pettiness. Like you're getting away with something working four day weeks when everyone else has to work five! (And, you know, take two weeks off in the summer or whatever.)

*Boggles* Until the last few years, all I took was long weekends, plus the occasional Wednesday, with my paid time off. I don't know why a company would rather have somebody gone for an extended period one time a year than take intermittent days off.

My agent has only worked Monday through Thursday (year round) for probably fifteen years now. Seniority has its perks, I guess.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Being senior for fifteen years is either cool as shit or kinda depressing.
