Uberman Fail

I gave up on the Uberman again. Due to a list of failures among other things (some people I care about wanted me off it too), I decided to quit. (My roommate isn't a very good secondary alarm clock either.)

I'm still doing the pushups though, and they're going great. I'll be nice and strong again in no time. (Well, 6 weeks.) I might go looking for a job tomorrow, now that my brain is freed up for more mentally engaging tasks, but we'll see what happens.

I might try to devise another polyphasic sleep schedule that fits with my school schedule, but I don't know how successful that will be. Nevertheless, I'm fairly convinced polyphasic is what I need. A 7pm-10pm nap then 2am-7am would give me 8 hours of sleep, so I might look into that. (The downside is I like 7pm-10pm as far as being awake.)

My next post will be something more interesting, promise.
