Hahahaha. You can try the 20-minute power-nap every four hour schedule that we talked about at Gloria's.
you know, i've only slept like two hours, and i actually feel okay and pretty awake. maybe it's the adrenaline or something, but it just feels a little like jetlag.
i still think we were pretty crazy.

i can't do it anymore. at o's bachelorette party, i fell asleep in the middle of the conversation. i didn't even tell them i was going to sleep, i just conked out. they told me that they had no idea i was out until later, when they realized i hadn't said anything in a long time. haha.
Basically, Andy was sharing something from a medical journal article he read: a guy managed to get by his days by taking only 20-minute power-naps every four hours without actually going to sleep at night. So he sleeps only a total of two hours every day, spaced out into 20-minute segments every four hours. He was able to sustain himself for three months at the time the article was written, and he's probably still doing it. He said that once his body adjusted to the new schedule, he decided never to go back. The extra six hours a day was a great reward for him.
The fatigue after an all nighter usually doesn't hit me till the second day after (i.e. not the day immediately after, but the next day after that). Then I feel like a complete zombie.
I've pulled all-nighters before, and averaged 5.5 - 6 hrs a night in college / working.
