		<description><![CDATA[This is the last you&#8217;ll hear from me on this subject, promise!
So I feel I may have been too hasty in summing up the polyphasic sleep experiment experience.&#160; Now that I&#8217;ve had a few days back on &#34;normal&#34; sleep, I can make a much better comparisson.
First of all &#8211; in conclusion I believe that this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So after just over 5 weeks on the Uberman schedule, I&#8217;ve decided to end it.
The main reason was that this past week, I continually overslept, making each day progressively worse and undoing more and more of what I had accomplished.&#160; I got fed up with fighting sleep each night, and ran out of active activities.

		<description><![CDATA[Well, it&#8217;s now been 5 weeks since I first adopted the Uberman sleep schedule, and I think I&#8217;m still adjusting. &#160;Typically it takes about 2 weeks, during which time about 1 week of that is extreme exhaustion as your body becomes sleep deprived, and eventually adapts. &#160;
In my case, however, I&#8217;ve had a problem with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So today marks the 4th week that I&#8217;ve been keeping to the &#34;uberman&#34; polyphasic sleep schedule.&#160; To recap, this is a schedule where I sleep for 30 minutes every 4 hours.&#160; Usually the sleep is kept to around 15-20 minutes, but it takes me a while to fall asleep, so I block off 30 minutes.

		<description><![CDATA[So Jess pointed out to me that I have now been on this sleep schedule for 3 weeks.&#160; For some reason I had been thinking this was my second week.
I don&#8217;t feel that I&#8217;ve fully adjusted yet.&#160; The average is 2 weeks, but I&#8217;ve had a lot of &#34;accidents&#34; where I&#8217;ve slept in.&#160; My naps [...]]]></description>

I have had a few more oversleeping episodes, accompanied by some nod-offs.&#160; However, rather than oversleeping for 4 hours, it has only been for 1 [...]]]></description>

I woke up feeling as if I was still asleep, but not as bad as the other morning when I wrote.&#160; I was so tired then I felt drunk.
Anyways.&#160; My additional precautions clearly were [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I almost really overslept again this morning.
Almost.
As I approach my 5:30 am nap, I tend to get very sleepy.&#160; In addition, by this point I don&#8217;t have much to do.&#160; It&#8217;s either too loud, or not engaging enough to keep me from passing out.
So I&#8217;m sleepy with nothing to do.&#160; This is where I would, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I had an interesting experience this morning.
First &#8211; a little background.&#160;
The past few days, I have been extremely groggy just before my 1:30 am nap, up until just after my 5:30 am nap.&#160; This has resulted in several oversleeps, which I have been extra viligant of.&#160; Usually, during this time, it is a struggle [...]]]></description>
