OK so I didn’t run today, but I’m not going to beat myself up because I had so little sleep that I was in really poor physical and mental shape. And I did submit a PhD application. So overall I’ve done all right
@purplepadma That's huge, well done! Remember, you're a mammal, it's OK to do less at this time of year!
@purplepadma you have! and it's sunday. i hope you sleep better tonight
@moonrabbit Oh god, me too. Last night was brutal. I need to have a shower before I go to bed because it’s Clean Sheets Night and I don’t want to get into a pristine bed anything other than pristine myself
@purplepadma ooh i get that too! i think we're changing the bedding tomorrow, so although i always shower before bed, that'll necessitate a hair wash too.
i hope the crispness helps you sleep.
@moonrabbit I don’t have any trouble getting to sleep lately, the difficulty is staying that way…
@purplepadma i pretty much cannot sleep more than 2.5-3 hours in a go. and on the *very* rare occasions that i do (which are always later toward the morning), you can see on my watch that i almost woke up right on schedule, but didn't for some reason. between that and the fact that i'm often up for ages each time, i'm just shattered all the time.
@moonrabbit That’s my pattern right now. Then I go through phases where I sleep way too much, 11-12 hours a night. I don’t do moderation, apparently
@purplepadma ha! no nor me. or if i do, i do it *really* well: 3 hours? that's plenty for you!
11-12 hours in a go? can you send me some of whatever you're eating/drinking?
@moonrabbit It’s not great because I have to get Tom to rouse me because I can’t get up for work or appointments
@purplepadma oh ack yes, i can see how that would be tricky.
@purplepadma Way more than I’ve done.
You’re doing great.
@purplepadma Kudos, find it's so easy to default to self-beating without standing back and reflecting, as you did. Two good things for today's list right there.
@teamNotLeafy Yes, my list will be fairly easy tonight
@purplepadma I'd say you're doing great!
@Fragglemuppet Thanks! I’m often striving for perfection lol
