Interesting...

Apparently Keen Eddie is on Bravo now. Interesting. Don't know if they're making new ones or not.

So. I woke up this morning due my entirely overactive mind! I had to reset my clock so I forgot to turn on the alarm. But I woke up on time anyway!

So, there are some benefits to having the supremely overactive mind. While it doesn't work while I'm concious it is very, very rare that I oversleep if there is a reason for me to get up.

Going to the gym tonight should help.

I wonder, would this possibly be a next stage of something? Could possibly using sleep time as processing time more actively be efficient without driving someone completely insane?

I don't know as I go a little crazy after awhile if I don't really sleep. I wander off into a strange side reality, almost. It is really hard to explain. It is like being really sleep dep but there are some fundamental differences. At least there are for me.

There are many times I get my best thinking / processing done while I'm asleep.

Sometimes I do too but normally it doesn't stop me from actually acknowledging sleep. For me the actual sleep isn't enough. I have to experience the transition, to know that I slept, or I get a little weird.

Ah, that unless you wake up and go "now that was some SLEEP!" you don't feel quite right?

Something like that. I have to know that I slept. Which means I have to experience the transition, the liminal state between sleep and awake.

Aint nuthin worse than dreaming you're awake.

Or dreaming you've woken up and done the day already.
