Last night I met up with one of my Spanish friends for a meal and a few drinks. By the time I got home it was 10:15pm, so I had a cup of rooibos and got ready for bed.
By the time I'd settled down to sleep it was gone 11:00pm. As my nap had failed and I had been out and was tired I decided to put my alarm back to 5:30am. I fell asleep almost instantly, and slept through until 4:40am when I woke up from a dream. After that I dozed for about 20 minutes and got up at 5:00am.

Pretend to Drive / Multiplying Meat
I have no clue where I am, but it is a room similar to a classroom and we are doing some kind of training / workshop. The instructor gives us some glasses, a hat and an assortment of other strange items to put on and I remember it being really uncomfortable. We were originally sitting on a row of chairs at some desks but now we are laying on our backs on the floor. The instructor asks us to close our eyes and pretend to be driving a car so we all lay there on the floor with ridiculous glasses and hats on, with our eyes closed, pretending to drive car, moving our hands and feet as if they were on the steering wheel and pedals!
In a later scene I am at someone else's house, possibly my dad's, and I am in the kitchen making something to eat. There is some left over casserole consisting of a chunk of meat in some sauce. I put it in a pan to heat it up, and I decide to break the piece of meat up with a wooden spatula. Each time I break the pieces of meat in half I am surprised at how big the 2 halves are, and in the end I have a pan full of meat.
Sleep 2
16:15
to 17:00
(0:45 hours)
I slept a little bit
I felt quite tired from around midday until about 3:00pm at work, and I felt that I could have easily fallen asleep in this period. When I got home I didn't feel as tired any more and wasn't sure if I would sleep or not but decided to go to bed anyway.
I laid in bed for what seemed like about 15 minutes, so when I looked at the clock and 45 minutes had passed I was surprised. I don't remember falling asleep or waking up and I don't really know if I slept or not. It was not enjoyable like a nap and not particularly refreshing.
Sleep 3
17:00
to 17:44
(0:44 hours)
I didn't sleep at all
As I wasn't sure if I'd slept or not I stayed in bed for another 45 minutes. This time I definitely did not sleep as I glanced at the clock about every 10 minutes. I'm not really sure what happened with today's nap and I feel a bit frustrated by it.
Sleep 4
22:14
to 04:41
(6:26 hours)
Lat night I was pretty tired, probably due to the disaster of a nap that I had! I fell asleep pretty quickly but then I had a nightmare and woke up at 12:30 (although I don't remember anything about the nightmare now).
I got back to sleep easily and slept through until just after 4:30am when I woke up naturally.
