Paying Sleep Dues

As I'm currently drawing sums and sums from my sleep bank, this article is an eye-opener. Looks like sleep debts are like credit card debts; interest accumulates.

Fortunately, prior to this and last week, I've been sleeping an average of a bit under seven hours. This week I've sacrificed hours, though, to go running every morning, starting anywhere from 6:30 to 7:30 AM. I think the exercise has done more good than harm from reduced slumber, but it's not possible to keep up this four-hour-a-night deal. I enjoy the early morning weather, though. It's chilly, but not too cold yet that I can't wear shorts. And there's hardly anyone awake or on the sidewalks, one of the few times in the day for solitude.
