Polyphasic Sleep Day 9
Wow this is just extremely frustrating. It's 7:41, I overslept BIG time on my 1am nap. I really have to figure out why I cannot hear my alarms sometimes. I honestly don't know what to do, my alarm stops ringing after about 1 minute…and I can't help that. I'll have to find me a new alarm that doesn't stop going off. Damn. Well, all I can do is keep trying. I just hope that this doesn't make things take EVEN longer for me.
I can say that this has so far been very challenging, but a little failure isn't going to stop me. I'm just going to put even more effort into making sure this all works out. At least I have learned a few things.
End of Day Roundup
Man today was a crazy day. Besides sleeping in, when I went running I started to get real itchy, and then I started breaking out in hives on every part of my body. I was swelling up pretty bad even on the inside of my lips. My mom works in the ER and sometimes tells me about people who get hives like that and their airway gets swollen shut and they die, so I went to the ER as soon as I could.
They really couldn't figure out what was wrong with me, so they gave me a bunch of Benadryl and basically made me stay there for a few hours and sleep (meh). When I was released they put some more in me which pretty much knocked me out for a while when I got home. Overall I'd say today was pretty bad for the experiment, but I will be picking everything back up tomorrow…especially since I am starting to experience REM more and more frequently.
