How much sleep is enough?

I really don't know if I'm getting enough sleep. I think I am, but there are times when I'm not so sure. I mean, I've only been on 3rd shift for a week and a half, and honestly, I'd have to say it's gone smoother than I expected. But that doesn't mean i'm there yet. Plus, i haven't really gotten any homework. So i can sleep pretty much when I want. I generally sleep between 12-7pm. Those are the best hours. But when I have something to do, i'll have to adjust it.

Example 1.1
Mike signed up to play with a bagpipe band. THis band practices WEdnesdays from 7-9pm. In addition to this, Mike has a mandatory managers meeting to attend for Fall Softball at 6:30pm. Now, I don't think Mike can do both. But, he's still going to be running about just before a long shift and class the next day. Example 1.1 suggests this is going to catch up to him.

Example 1.2 (i know too many math textbooks!)
After this long day, thursday isn't looking any better. Mike has a softball game at 6:30pm in Westlake. If it's not rained out. Assuming worst case scenario. Mike will sleep from 12-5:30pm at the parents house, and then head to westlake for the game. Get back around 8 and have time to eat and nap some more. Or do homework. Who knows??


It seems more and more that my parents house is my best base of operations. It's much more convienent then the Islander. Which begs me to ask: Should I have stayed in Lakewood? I think yes. Even closer to downtown is looking like a pretty good option. Somewhere I could just use the rapid. I'm thinking if it weren't for softball, I could probably subsist on public transportation. That would be an impressive feat.

I also tried to do homework instead of blogging, but the online reserve hadn't been updated with the readings yet. So I continue to blog! I need new topics. Does anyone want to travel this weekend??? I know I do!!! Big time!! 3 day weekend!! woot woot!!! Anyone?? CHicago?? Louisville?? New York???? Somewhere I don't even know about! I need to travel. Boosts the morale!!
