Is this thing on?

It seems that my plan to shift to a slightly more conventional timezone may be working as I managed to fall out of bed at 9:30 this morning without the aid of a crane..

I’m just off to test stage 2 of the plan with a quick session in the gym. I have blocked out a set of early morning (well ok, not *early* but first thing when I get up) work-outs every day over the next couple of weeks to help me ramp up to some fairly intensive training again. So, in about 30 minutes time I’ll prolly be posting again to say that I am either :

a) Feeling fantastic as I am surfing on a wave of endorphins and adrenaline, or
b) I’m fucked, pass the bacon sarnie will you…

Morning.

You know that bit before lunch.

Apparently it can exist at the start of your day too.

Weird that, for me it is usually the other way around. I think yesterday was a new record for me (parties etc. notwithstanding) as I didnt actually go to be until about 8 am or something as I was up all night discussing some important stuff with a couple of friends.

I must have actually been tired as I went to bed at 3am last night. It was strange to actually wake up at 8-something (briefly..) and to actually get up before 11 o’clock. Weird!

Over the past few months I have become increasingly nocturnal. It crept up fairly slowly at first as my bedtime crept from 3am through 4am to 5am. These days I’m frequently still up at 5 and often find myself watching the start of breakfast TV before I go to sleep…

Generally I get up somewhere between 1 and 2pm, which is rather nice….

Kel was here last night, and it was somewhat suprising to find her wide awake when I went to be at 04:45, even more suprising that she was awake enough that we ended up chatting for an hour before finally deciding that sleep was a good idea…

I woke up this morning and was more than a bit suprised to see it was nearly 2:30. Bloody hell, I knew I needed to catch up on some sleep but that was taking the piss…! I went to be quite early for me last night (well 04:30) too. Anyway I thought I’d better get up in spite of feeling fucked, so I did.

It was only about 15 minutes later when sat at my PC I noticed the little clock on screen. 10:30.

fuck.

Note to self… put batteries in clock.

As far as I am concerned, 2004 effective starts tomorrow.

I plan to begin my year with a bloody good sort out, a clearing of the decks to free up some space, both physical, and mental. That means an early(ish) night tonight so I can get up at a reasonable time and get on with it.

Wish me luck….
