Day 24:
Yesterday I'd actually forgotten that I had an orthodontics appointment in the mid afternoon so I never actually ended up getting my nap anyway. This is my first skipped nap, well, if you discount the night where I tried to sleep a long period of time monophasically again. Honestly, it didn't really affect me, I had a tired period around dinner but I would've have that either way seeing as social calls aren't my best of traits. The rest of the day I was perfectly fine.
Last night when 1:00am came around I was actually tired, but it felt really early, not something I'm too used to anymore. I did wake up at 6:45 again, just now actually, to counteract that, but it was during the middle of NREM sleep so I feel a little groggy. Only disadvantage I would say is the fact me waking so early is also waking my sister, who's also a light sleeper during her long periods of REM sleep, and I can't get much done in the mornings anyway for worry of waking her. Finding a balance is proving to be difficult.
Today I'll try to have my nap, although again I'm intrigued to see what happens if I don't. If I'm not tired I can't exactly fall to sleep anyway. I realize that the rest is beneficial though, and the fact that I am supposed to be doing a polyphasic schedule, not a seriously shortened monophasic one. Either way, we'll see.
