Photon Denial Assembly for day sleepers (prototype 2)

Photon Denial Assembly for day sleepers (prototype 1)

I just don't understand how people can do it! Live in a large city in the north in the winter. For me, it's a one-two punch: no clear view of the daytime sky, and never venturing outside. I spend my few waking hours on a daytime layover wandering around the habitrails connecting various buildings, never going out on the street if possible. It's just too cold and messy with old snow and slush. Your eyes water and your skin freezes. You would jump off a bridge to end it all, but there's ice on the river. Wait, let me shake myself awake.

Okay, I'm better now. Actually, the skies are clearing today, but it's gonna be bone chillin' cold. Last night was the first night in four weeks of flying this trip that I've actually seen Chicago when we passed overhead. We were about an hour late this morning getting out of Indy waiting on fuel. The ramp agent said there would be a second flight to cover all the Packers paraphernalia after the Superbowl win.

Android app to track sleep

Here's my sleep graph for this morning as tracked by my Android phone (based on body movement). Almost 5 hours. Yeah!
