My sleep schedule is totally effed up. It seems to have started after last Monday when I worked from 7am to 3pm and then headed straight to Barnes and Noble to work from 4pm until midnight. I was tired to say the least and that night when my head finally hit the pillow, I didn't set an alarm in an effort to get what sleep I needed the next day. I actually didn't sleep as late as I had expected (only until about 1030am), but it started the horrible pattern I am in now. Wednesday I did get up at 6am, but then that night I was out until 2am with friends so getting to sleep at about 330am resulted in...you guessed it, sleeping late again*.
I try to get up early everyday, but lately I've even been turning my alarm off in my sleep. If I know I don't have to get up for something, my sleepyhead takes over and turns off my three alarms I have set up**. This morning was no exception. I somehow turned off the first alarm set for 7am and when the 730am went off, I decided "just a few more minutes!" And I stretched out and found that extra comfortable spot and just could not let it go to waste so I let myself fall back to sleep for a little longer.
Tomorrow, though, there are no excuses. I'll be up at 7am no matter what getting ready for work=/ I guess it's the shock my system needs? I guess we'll find out on Wednesday morning, eh?

*My work schedule is v. weird right now. There is no pattern to it and my days off are during the week usually.
**Three. I know. It stems from me being so worried I'll miss work and if I'm worried I won't get up, then I won't sleep well.

Hahhaa, I was wondering about that:) Why haven't you slept?!
Excited we saw you! How random.
I'm with you. When I had that week off between my old job and new job, I made all sorts of plans to get up at a decent time (like 8) to use the day and not get into bad habits.
That never happened. Not once. The earliest I got up might have been about 9:30.
And I was struggling when I started the new job last week.
Me likey sleepy.
Just listen to your body - sleep when you need it. I'm sure B&N will understand if you lay out on the counter to grab a few z's... :o)
Oh, I tagged you btw! (But am fairly sure that you might have done this meme already...)
I have trouble getting to sleep. Only when I was working 7-3 at the middle school and doing 3 nights a week at class was I consistantly tired at an early time each night. Usually it takes me at least an hour to fall asleep and I tend to get a second wind around 9pm which then keeps me up:(
do jumping jacks.
You could be me, I'm on day three. No sleep.
wwoo!!! (shoot me)
