Last night I felt very tired at about 9:00pm and I got in bed with a book at 10:00pm. By this time I didn't feel so tired anymore so I read for an hour.

While I was in bed next door were having a party and were being quite noisy, and just when I settled down to sleep they were in their garden being very loud. I put my earplugs in and went to sleep.

I have a very vague memory of waking up naturally at some point this morning but going back to sleep without opening my eyes. The next thing I knew the alarm went off at 5:00am and I got up.

It took a little while to fall asleep, I would guess around 10 minutes. I thought I wouldn't sleep but clearly I did.

I woke up naturally from a dream. In my dream I had accidentally took a sip of human sewage, and was desperately trying to wash my mouth out without swallowing any of it, and spitting into a sink. When I woke up my head was hanging over the side of the bed and I was practically gargling with my own saliva!

The dream seemed like a very long and complicated dream, and it felt like I had been asleep for hours. I tried to remember my dream by working backwards but could only remember the end.

Last night I read in bed for a while before going to sleep. Next door were making some noise so I put in ear plugs which did a great job of blocking them out. When I finally decided to go to sleep I fell asleep really quickly, in a couple of minutes.

This morning I woke up at 3:30am. I laid in bed for a few minutes when I suddenly realised I had an ear plug in my hand, so I must have pulled it out in my sleep! As it was so early I decided to see if I could get back to sleep, so I dozed for about half an hour and eventually decided to get up at 4:00am.

In don't really know if I slept or not, but it felt like I was laying down for about ten minutes. I felt sleepy before laying down but I probably wasn't that tired - I think it is just that I'm used to going to sleep at that time.

I feel quite refreshed now so it was worth it!

I was feeling very sleepy this morning, so I decided to take a nap just after 10am. I was thinking to myself "I can't wait for my nap" when I decided actually I don't have to wait for it and decided to take it early.

This nap felt slightly different to my normal afternoon naps. I woke up after an hour which is really short, and I didn't feel like I'd slept so deeply. I feel a lot better now and it will be interesting to see whether I feel like taking another short nap this afternoon.

I think that has to be about the worst night's sleep I've had since I started sleeping biphasically!

After about an hour awake in the middle of the night I laid down on the floor to test how sleepy I was (I didn't want to disturb Yu Lee going in and out) and I realised I would probably sleep if I went back to bed. When I got back in bed I fell asleep straight away but I think I woke up at 3:30, and then 4:30, so when I woke up again at 5:30 I thought it was definitely time to get up.

I feel like I could go to sleep now. I feel like I could probably sleep forever like that, as the quality of my sleep was so poor that I would probably never stop being tired enough to sleep!

We have recently got our house insulated, and the temperature inside is a little higher than it used to be. I wonder if the new temperature is what was stopping me from sleeping properly...

...and once I did finally fall asleep, I woke up after 3 hours.

I laid in bed for a while as I didn't really want to get up at 1:30am, but as I laid there I started to feel overwhelmingly hot. When I got up my whole body was really hot and I wouldn't be surprised if I was ill.

I got a glass of water which cooled me off and I am sitting at my mac in the dark. I don't think it will be long before I come back to bed. I hope I am not ill!

I felt really tired so I went to bed early, but in the end it took me at least 45 minutes to fall asleep...

I can't put into words how angry I feel.

Fell asleep in about 5 minutes. A great nap ruined by my neighbours.

Last night Yu Lee was out with her friends when I went to bed. I remember laying in bed and not feeling right because she wasn't home and thinking it would take me a while to sleep. I think I fell asleep within 5 minutes as usual.

When Yu Lee came in to bed I woke up enough to cuddle up to her but I kept my eyes closed. I think I did eventually roll over and look at the clock and it was about 1:00am.

This morning I woke up naturally at about 4:20 from a dream. I remember thinking that I didn't remember the dream, all I could remember was the stupid maths show I was doing, and then I realised that was the dream! I laid still in bed to try and crystallise my memories of the dream, but I fell asleep again and woke up 10 minutes later, so I need to be careful about doing that.

I think it took me about 5 minutes to fall asleep, but I woke up at 4:30 which would have only been 20 minutes sleep. It then took me another 5 minutes to fall back to sleep but this time I slept through until 6:00.

I woke up naturally from a dream about being in Slough and arguing with some of the people that I used to go to school with (not my friends but people in my year). I felt a bit groggy and laid in bed for 15 minutes after logging my sleep.

Last night I went to bed at 11:30 which I think is generally a better time for me. I fell asleep almost instantly and slept right through to my alarm.

This morning I woke up at 5:00am and turned off the alarm. I could remember dreaming, but couldn't remember anything about the dream. I laid in bed for a while, trying to get the dream back and suddenly I had a very weak memory of something in the dream. Once I had remembered 1 detail the rest started to come back and I played the whole thing through in my head before I logged my sleep (which was only 1 minute later).

I wrote my dream down in my journal and got up. It was about living in a shared house with a load of people with learning difficulties, and having a very odd group sex education lesson with them!

Today at work I was thinking I probably wouldn't be able to nap today as I didn't feel the usual afternoon slump. When I finally got home and laid down though, I started to feel tired but was still not sure if I would sleep. In the end I fell asleep in about 5 minutes.

After 2 hours of sleep I woke up naturally, and I'm sure I was dreaming but I couldn't remember anything about the dream. I have started to keep a dream journal, so I wrote that I had a dream but couldn't remember it which is frustrating as I have been remembering a lot of dreams lately.

When I woke up I couldn't tell if it was morning or not but I felt great afterwards. I think 2 hours is the perfect length for my nap!

Last night I went to bed at 11:00 with Yu Lee, but I wasn't that tired and I probably should have stayed up a little bit later. It took me at least 15 minutes to fall asleep because I remember looking at the clock at 11:15, but I think it was more likely 20 - 30 minutes.

I think I remember waking up after a couple of hours. I think I had a dream and woke up, but decided not to write it down (I want to start a dream journal) as that would wake me up too much and risk another strange night. Maybe that was a mistake?

This morning at 5:00 when the alarm went off I felt like I could have slept for a bit longer, and I laid in bed for 5 minutes before getting up which is not ideal as it can lead to oversleeps. I was probably tired due to my shorter nap yesterday - hopefully I can make up for it at nap time today.

I came home from work and went straight to bed, and fell asleep quickly but woke up after about 20 minutes. I got back to sleep again but I think I woke up once more before sleeping until 5:40pm.

About 2 minutes after I woke up Yu Lee came home and chatted to me for a while until I got up. I felt somewhat refreshed, but I think I had quite a light sleep.

Not much to report: I fell asleep quickly, and then woke up easily.

Today I worked from home, so I made sure I had finished my 7 hours work by 2:00pm so that I could go for an early nap. I fell asleep relatively quickly, but I think I woke up after about half an hour. I decided this was way to short and went back to sleep, which took a little while.

When I woke up the second time I had been sleeping for a total of 2.5 hours, and I woke up from a dream, although I can't remember it any more.

This time I did manage to sleep. It took me a while to get back to sleep, probably about 15 minutes, and when my alarm went off 2 hours later I was still tired and snoozed it for 10 minutes. The weird thing is that it felt a lot longer than 10 minutes and I had a long and complicated dream in that time.

I felt like I could have slept longer, but I am already starting to wake up now. Hopefully I can survive until my nap!

I tried to go back to sleep at 3:30 but it turned out that I still want tired. After laying in bed with my eyes closed for half an hour I decided that my body obviously doesn't want to sleep at the moment and got back up.

I have absolutely no idea what time I will need to nap today but I am working from home so I guess it doesn't matter too much...
