Model of Sleep Deprivation

Funny how when you try to think about what happened during the day, you can't seem to remember a darned thing. And even though its only 11 and relatively early for me, I feel dreadfully sleepy. I even got a decent amount of sleep last night falling asleep at only 12:30. Seems as though its catching up with me. But if my predictions are correct this is just a natural fluctuation of my highly abnormal sleeping pattern. Though it is random and inconsistent, it does seem to follow a pattern that repeats on a weekly, or monthly basis. Perhaps it would be an interesting experiment to log the amount of sleep I get over a few months time or longer to determine whether my biological clock does in fact follow any sort of recognizable pattern. However I would have to put much more calculation than amount of sleep received. Looking at the possible variables affecting sleep could include eating habits, physical excursion during the day, activities prior to sleeping (ie: computer, reading, music ect.) and level of stress. Therefore I have concluded that the amount of work involved in collecting the information alone would be more effort than the information achieved is worth. My sub-standard model of sleep deprivation will have to be good enough.

(a more detailed description of what and how my model really functions will be posted once more sleep is attained. So Don't hold your breath waiting for it!)
