I screwed up, for all of those following the blog I am very sorry but I screwed up. This weekend I was very busy during the day, still kept to my sleep cycle but did not have time for the lumosity tests. The nights I was so tired, I got up and the fell asleep on the couch. My wife just rescued me from another oversleeping session, I went to sleep at 22:00 and must have turned off the alarm at 22:30 without knowing it, and luckily my wife woke me up just before 23:00.

I am about to enter day 5th day, but because of this weekend which I failed so horribly, maybe I should start from the scratch and call it day 1 again. What have I learned … because I have done it before I do not get sleep deprived and very sleepy in the beginning, it takes me 3 to 4 days? Never and I mean never go and sit down after waking up after the 10pm or 2am sessions, rather do something physical until more alert. I will give myself one more chance, if I again turn of the alarm in my sleep, I will switch to two alarms keeping one alarm on the other end of the room.

Now a question to all those following my blog, do you want an update after every sleep session or rather a combined report at the end of the day?
