Up at 6am, sleep at 10pm. Much more natural for me, & seems like so much more time in the day, even though it’s the same hours asleep vs awake as 4:30am-8:30pm. So; Up at 6, Didn’t write for 10 minutes; Object writing is great for descriptive prose but does not, by itself, add to…

Today went great, and then horrible, and then great. I went for another run yesterday morning and I slept for ten hours again last night. Maybe someday I’ll get used to running and be able to just sleep eight hours. I woke up at 6:30 and met a wonderful friend for coffee, after-which I promptly…

I showed up. I sat down today, and I tried. Immediately after moving my sleep time back an hour to get the full 8 that I know my body works best on, I adjusted to the circadian rhythm – lopsided meter, 5|8 – and I was able to get up at 4:30 and go for…

I’m getting into the swing of things. I’ve been trying to accustom my body to 7 hours of sleep instead of 8 – it’s one more hour I could be working or improving, or anything other than sleeping – but my body is fighting back because of the run that I went for the other…
