Sleep 1

23:34 to 05:00

(5:26 hours)

Last night I started to feel sleepy around 10:30, and initially tried to go to bed at 11:00, but in the end it was 11:30 by the time I settled down to sleep.

I don't really remember laying in bed last night so I guess I must have fallen asleep pretty quickly! I set my alarm for 5:00am and when it went off I got up straight away. Yu Lee tried to cuddle up to me and I said something like "I can't I need to get up otherwise I will start to feel drowsy if I lay here" which is progress!

Sleep 2

16:22 to 18:23

(2:00 hours)

Today at work I was very tired at about 12:00, probably because this is the time I napped the past 2 days. I got over the initial tiredness, but by 4:00 I was feeling very sleepy and when I got home I was really ready for bed.

When I laid in bed I went straight into half-sleep where I was having vivid daydreams with lots of sounds, which lasted until I rolled over onto my side. About a minute later I had drifted off into a deep sleep.

Sleeping in the Car

Tags: Bob

I dreamt that I was in the back of a car with my brother and one of my work mates (someone else was driving). My brother was sleeping and talking in his sleep, when all of a sudden he climbed into the back and straddled my friend. It was clear from what he was saying that he was dreaming about going to the toilet and he unzipped his trousers pointing in the direction of my friends face.

By this time we were all shouting for him to stop and my friend was pushing him off, and eventually he woke up. I said something like "That was close" and my friend said "Close? My face is wet that was more than close". My brother was apologising.

Sleep 3

23:32 to 05:02

(5:30 hours)

It was 11:30pm by the time I settled down to go to sleep last night, and I had felt pretty tired for the previous hour. I didn't fall asleep straight away though. I think I drifted in and out for a while as I remember looking at the clock and seeing 1:45am. I didn't feel frustrated and I don't remember laying there for a long time so I probably fell asleep and woke up a few times.

This morning when the alarm went off I was dreaming. I don't remember exactly what the dream was about but I remember it took place in a school and it was very vivid. Maybe I should start keeping a dream journal!

After the alarm I felt a little sleepy, and I thought "Maybe I should set another alarm for 5:30" but in the end I realised it was better to just get up.
