It happened one day. I beat the monster.
I stayed up all night.
Then plowed my way through the following day without napping.
And Voila! I now regularly sleep at 12-1 am or so and wake up at 7:30am like an atomic clock.
Its been steady so far for a few weeks now. I wanted to wait a bit before shouting it while running through the town square, figuratively speaking.
I can’t describe how glad i am, to feel the sun in my face and in my room, after months of a vampire-like life.
Coupled with late evening weightlifting-based workouts, i’ve banished my DSPS demons for good, this time.
So, for others out there struggling with Insomnia , DSPS , or other Circadian Rhythm interference without a medical reason, besides a late-night Internet/Tv addiction,
There is always HOPE .

1) Loosely coupled Systems
2) *nix application design conventions (see item 1)
3) Graceful degradation
4) Systems with no regression-type bugs
Edit: This post has been lying in my drafts since September 2009.
I don’t even feel like counting the months; so i’m hitting publish now. :-/

I just caught myself relaxing in my faux plastic easy chair. My legs are exhausted after an extended evening discussion about Life, the universe, and women(is there more to life?) with Rep and Naveen. I’ll explain. I have this little idiosyncrasy where i hop around quite a bit when debating and discussing STUFF. It may unnerve people new to me.
Picture a big bald man all of 6’1″ and about 110kgs (a high quote to be on the safe side), hopping around in nothing but his boxers and a large half-eaten plantain banana in one hand. You now begin to understand why i find myself the subject of much hilarity.
I am a clown. I feel like i was born to make people smile. Some do. Some don’t.
Oh well, you can’t win em all.
wait, what was this post about…
Once again, i reveal my distracted side. Both of them.
