I've decided not to sleep tonight
I've never done it before, I've always gotten at least 4 or so hours of sleep at night. For some reason tonight though as I ritualistically lay there in bed loathing the fact that humans need to sleep and that I was prolonging the amount of time I need lay there by ruminating over my disdain for this habitual necesity, I simply realized I wasn't tired! I said screw this and began Operation Night Owl (I thought the name was pretty bad ass) and have been recording notes on how I mentally feel each hour. So far so good, I've been quite productive and haven't felt too drowsy or anything. It will be a success if I can comfortably get through today and my daily routine, a failure of I collapse and my productivity plummets later on this afternoon. If all goes well I might make a habit out of skipping a nights sleep once a week to save some time. I loved all the extra time I've had so far! Wish me luck!

1. Your concentration will probably go all to hell
No matter how much you may loathe it, you do need some sleep.

2. If you don't let your body rest you are going to crash.
