Waking and Sleeping, Losing Track of the Blog

I've totally lost track of this thing, being so tied-up with Boys State. Here's what the schedule looks like now, for my sleeping and waking:

I lost a little bit when I slept so much on 6/15. Oh, well. That's 184 hours, 40 minutes awake in 223 hours elapsed. Zow!

Feeling: Going to take a nap later this morning...

Another Day of Fun

I got a 21.65 mile bike ride in this morning, and really felt great all day. My fear of oversleeping was unfounded, though tonight, I think, it may not be.

Here's what the waking / sleeping summary looks like now:

  • Wednesday: Arrival at 5:00PM, in bed at 11:35PM - 6 hours, 35 minutes.
  • Thursday: Up at 6:45AM, still up at midnight Friday - 17 hours, 15 minutes.
  • Friday: Still up at midnight, to bed at 2:44AM. Back up at 6:45AM and still up at midnight Saturday - 19 hours, 59 minutes.
  • Saturday: Still up at midnight, to bed at 3:00AM. Up again at 6:40AM, still up at midnight Sunday - 20 hours, 30 minutes.
  • Sunday: Still up at midnight, to bed at 2:50AM. Up again at 6:40AM, still up at midnight Monday - 20 hours, 10 minutes.
  • Monday: Still up at midnight, to bed at 3:17AM. - 3 hours, 17 minutes.
  • Totals: 106 hours, 17 minutes on-site. 87 hours, 46 minutes awake. (83% awake)

Feeling: Acceptable, but very fearful of oversleeping!

Missed Yesterday's Entry

I missed yesterday's entry, being so caught up in the work here. The BBS blog is consuming a lot of my time, as is our Flickr account.

So, here's the summary as it stands now:

  • Wednesday: Arrival at 5:00PM, in bed at 11:35PM - 6 hours, 35 minutes.
  • Thursday: Up at 6:45AM, still up at midnight Friday - 17 hours, 15 minutes.
  • Friday: Still up at midnight, to bed at 2:44AM. Back up at 6:45AM and still up at midnight Saturday - 19 hours, 59 minutes.
  • Saturday: Still up at midnight, to bed at 3:00AM. Up again at 6:40AM, still up at midnight Sunday - 20 hours, 30 minutes.
  • Sunday: Still up at midnight, to bed at 2:50AM. - 2 hours, 50 minutes.
  • Totals: 81 hours, 50 minutes on-site. 67 hours, 9 minutes awake. (82% awake)

Feeling: Adequate but fearful of oversleeping!

Not All the Fun Has Moved

I'm not moving all of the fun over to the on-site BBS blog. I'm keeping the sleeping / waking file up here, since it's probably not very appropriate for the "official" BBS blog.

I got up at 6:45AM. We went to breakfast, etc, and I was at work by, say, 8:45AM. I'm finshing this post and heading to bed, at 2:35AM on Friday.

  • Wednesday: Arrival at 5:00PM, in bed at 11:35PM - 6 hours, 35 minutes.
  • Thursday: Up at 6:45AM, still up at midnight - 17 hours, 15 minutes.
  • Friday: Up at midnight, to bed at 2:44AM - 2 hours, 44 minutes.
  • Totals: 33 hours, 40 minutes on-site. 26 hours, 34 minutes awake. (79% awake)

Feeling: Still goin' strong!


Moving the Boys State Blogging

I've moved the Boys State-related blogging over to the on-site server (eventually to be linked on www.OhioBuckeyeBoysState.com, and will continue blogging on there. I signed us up for a Flickr account (www.flickr.com/photos/buckeyeboysstate) and removed all the old on-site photo management / gallery routines. I'm using Blosxom for the BBS blog, just like I am for this one.

American Legion Buckeye Boys State - On-Site Day 1

Today was on-site day 1 for me at the 2007 program. Every year for the last ten (10) years, I've volunteered some amount of time to assist the program with their IT needs. This marks the fifth year that I'm living on-site before and during the program. I'm living in the Darrow Hall wing of the Kreischer building at in Bowling Green, Ohio (KD143, to be exact).

I could certainly go on and on about the program and why I'm so into it, but I'll save that for later postings (or not at all, depending on my level of exhaustion as the program progresses). Hopefully I can throw some links into the live on-site web server once we spin it up. We're just getting started, though. For now, I'll just account some of the day's activities, and start keeping the "official" sleeping / waking hour log...

Today included such festivities as: (1) Driving and driving and driving to get here hours late, (2) replacing a failed hard disk drive in our main file/database server computer, (3) starting to fight with University-owned Windows XP-based PCs that are not properly executing Startup Scripts being assigned by Group Policy in our Active Directory domain.

So, I'm off to bed at 11:35PM local time, after getting a "start" today at, say, 5:00PM. I'm going to try and get up by 5:30AM to get an hour bike ride in before breakfast. We'll see how that goes.
