Feb. 13th, 2013 07:31 am10:45, after a 6, a 5 and a 7:30. The bad nights probably stemmed from brief naps taken within a few hours of bedtime - by naps I mean passings-out after lying down, which I had to do frequently because digging cars out took a toll on my back. (We're where the wind deposits everything so I ran out of yard to mound snow in, had to walk around stealing bits of others'.) The napping thing is interesting - it's like bedtime is declared when you start sleeping, regardless of how soon you wake and how long you're up after. Basically I never, ever get to nap, as it will always erase many times more rest than it gives.
The 10:45 mostly counteracts the 6 and 5, but I'm still -8 from the correction itself, and of course started at -??. Some people think the math really does work that cleanly, that your debt sticks around as an actual number. I find it hard to credit that, mostly because I remember feeling so much better after a week or so of 9+ nights, back when that ever happened. Seems unlikely the change from -9000 to -8990 would make that kind of difference. But I do think there's different sorts of tiredness, what with those days when I have popping and swimming in my visual field but have an excellent sense of where all the cars are and are about to be, so don't need to take the train. And Julie says tiredness affects me more than anyone she's ever known, so perhaps the longterm -9000 starts to weigh at those times, after the two or three winds provided by a short term surplus blow through. But of course there are reasons she might exaggerate.
