You know those mornings when you get up, sit on the couch and just stare at nothing and every few minutes your brain slowly realizes you have to make breakfast and move? That's how I'm feeling now and I've been making stupid little mistakes all morning. I don't know why am I so fucked up after a solid 8 hours sleep.

I've had that. It's hard to get motivated with that hanging over your head. Or maybe you got too much sleep lol I can't remember the last time I slept 8+ hours.

I have been forcing myself to regulate my sleep better. I am in bed no later than half ten and usually read for a good half hour before drifting off and then I am up not long after 6 and able to go to the gym and still have the day to myself (unless working). The cats usually wake me up about 6 anyway as the younger one sits on my chest as a sign that it's breakfast time. Sleep isn't always about length of time as you sleep in cycles anyway so over 90 mins you go from light sleep to deeper sleep after each half hour period, if you wake up mid cycle say 60 mins it's harder to get up and get your arse in gear.

I've been waking up way earlier than usual, and I think it might be good to keep it that way. However, the heating in the classrooms is making me drowsy. Hopefully that's just jetlag and won't become a thing.

I'm up earlier than that every day, some days I need to be to work by 6:30 AM. It takes me a little less than two hours to get ready and drive to work each day, so my alarm sounds at 4:45 AM.

Then again in highschool I used to wake up around 4 am to get ready so I can get on the bus at 5 am and arrive to school at 6. Harsh times lol.

Hi guys, I hope everyone's been well. I probably won't be around much for a little while. Here's a link to a video of my latest vocal performance with the string quartet, if anyone's interested: seven)suns- "Yama" live at Spectrum NYC 12.19.14 on Vimeo ...and we have a performance this weekend and a pretty exciting one at a good venue coming up in February. In other news, my new live band just found a great deal on a good monthly practice space (which can be a struggle here), and writing is going well - we have the guitar parts and most of the drums for three songs, and two more are taking shape. But I'm spending most of my time with kid - equal parts fun and insanity. I've also been exploring a great bandcamp site with tons of field recordings from all over the world, and listening to tons of weird folk and traditional music, especially stuff from eastern Europe. Haven't really had much time at all for metal lately. Again, I hope you're all well and enjoying life, and since I wasn't around to say it, happy new year!

[deathstorm]

Happy new year to you too alabaster

If I don't sleep for 8 hours, I'm tired all day. If I sleep 7 I barely function. I am aware I won't be able to sleep like that for my whole life, especially when I have kids, so I'm trying to figure out things that will keep me awake or make me sleep better. I think it will help once I start living with my bf. Macabre, that's a good way to organize your day especially if you are a morning person. I started feeling better once I started sleeping form 11 to 7 than from 3 a.m to 11 a.m..

Oh my! I'm sorry to hear about your affliction. Is it something that you have to take medication for? And def catch up on as much sleep as you can now if you're planning on having kids! A good sleep for me is about 4 hours. Sometimes 5 on a good night. So basically I get a nap lol
